Most homes still use coaxial cable as a way to distribute TV signals from the aerial to the various TVs within the property. The MOD300 modulator allows you to make the best out of this set up and use it to distribute your home CCTV through this same coaxial cable network.

 

The MOD300 converts a HDMI output from a DVR (or other equipment such as a Satellite box) into a digital RF signal or “Digital TV channel”. It can then be viewed on a DVB-T equipped TV.

 

The MOD300 produces a high quality freeview picture far superior to an analogue modulated signal and as most new TVs contain a digital tuner it’s a great way to distribute CCTV in a home or a commercial building via coaxial cable.

 

The HDMI input to the MOD300 also carries sound alongside the video, so any connected TVs will also be able to playback sound from the DVR or other device too. The MOD300 is also extremely useful for distributing the output from DVRs to multiple “TVs” in commercial environments such as pubs or clubs as it can all be done over low cost coax using an off-the-shelf RF distributor.

 

Note:  The MOD300 has to process and digitise the HDMI input and this creates a delay or “latency” in its output, this is typically in the region of 1 second.
