The VIPER Long-haul Card is available in a four camera modular design. This component is used in combination with VIPER Chassis at the headend/security central. The card utilizes a plug - and- play feature that allows the system to be custom configured for each application and provides easy expandability. Each card is hot swappable allowing the customer’s mission critical video surveillance system to remain in service while routine maintenance is performed.

This component was designed for operation with VIPER cable. Its unique design allows it to interface with existing video, voice or data networks without interference by using a highly balanced transmitter output design. Each card is integrated with advanced receiver electronics that provide complete immunity from ground loop, hum and noise to produce maximum video quality with minimum loss. It utilizes post-equalizing amplification for extended video distances up to 1400 meters/ 4,600 ft. over backbone cabling. By using “dip switches” these modules can provide incremental adjustment of gain and frequency compensation to allow the system to be “fine-tuned.” This unique feature provides adjustments for optimum performance over the entire operating range.

In design, it matches the appearance of the VIPER passive card, 4-port RJ-45 to BNC module, except that equalization, amplification and protection circuitry has been added. Finally, BNC patch cords are used to transport the video signals from the video module on to traditional security monitoring and recording equipment.
