Many installation companies can get the power and video signal correct, but struggle with the control of the dome
using the keypad or DVR using the RS485 data.
The key to successfully installing the data cabling to the dome is to get the basics right. Use a quality data cable
such as CAT5 (never use just a standard untwisted cable such as alarm cable for the RS485 signal).
Also, you must follow the RS485 wiring convention; the following section explains this.
RS485 Wiring methods & Tips >>>>>
1. Characteristics of RS485
As specified by RS485 standards, RS485 is a half-duplex data transmission type with characteristic
impedance of 120 . The maximum load capacity is 32 units (domes, keyboards and DVRs).
2. Transmission distances of RS485 Signals using CAT5 or similar cables
Selecting a CAT5 or similar sized twisted pair data transmission cable, the maximum theoretical transmitting
distances are as follows:
Baud Rate Maximum
Transmitting Distance
2400 Bps (PELCO-D) 1500m
4800 bps 1000m
9600 bps 600m
