DMC-10KIT - Linear Structured Wire Cat 5e Intercom System Kit

September 23rd, 2009, by admin

dmc-10kit1The DMC-10KIT Structured Wire Cat 5e Intercom System Kit is a structured wiring intercom system and contains interconnected panels via Cat 5e cable.  The panels of the kit are available in various designs and they are crafted in such a way that they will blend in with any décor. They can be used for domestic or light commercial applications. The DMC-10KIT will allow you to monitor your door without actually having to be near it. Its simple to use display makes it a easy to use system for any child or adult.  

The DMC-10KIT consists of a one door panel called the Intercom Door Station, 4 room panels called Intercom Room Stations, one structured Wire Intercom hub and a 12V switching power supply. In general, up to 8 rooms can be wired to the hub in any combination, 16 stations with two hubs, and each station utilizes cat5 cables. The installation of the kit’s panels in all your rooms will enable you to answer the door automatically by voice control using the intercom, without going to the door and answering it.

The panels are illuminated by a white or blue light and this is very helpful when you have to use the system during the darker hours of the day. There are microphones in the door panel and all the room panels. Using these, the whole house can be wired and a communication link can be established between all the rooms. However, to give privacy to users, a privacy mute option is available. This option turns the microphone in the room OFF, preventing it from transmitting audio signals. With this option, you can be rest assured that your privacy is given the utmost importance by the device.

Some of the other features that you can use are do-not-disturb, mute and hands free communication. Also, when one line is busy, all the other lines that are wired to the hub get a busy tone and hence, the connection is not established. Moreover, when a guest appears at the door, by talking with them over the intercom, you can greet them warmly and meet them in the living room or the foyer after opening the door automatically through the intercom. With the DMC 10KIT, you will be able to choose from three different chime sounds, so you’ll never get bored of a single chime.

The contemporary design, outstanding features and easy operation makes the DMC-10KIT Linear Structured Wire Cat 5e Intercom System Kit the best choice for you when it comes to intercoms.  For more information and pricing on the DMC-10KIT visit CableGiant!

Frequently Asked Questions about CCTV

July 16th, 2009, by admin

cctvIn an effort to assist CableGiant customers in buying CCTV products here are some frequently asked questions about CCTV answered!

Question: What is the difference between ¼” and ⅓” Charged Coupled Devices (CCD’s)?
Answer: ¼” and ⅓” are both common sizes of CCD’s.  The difference is that the larger the CCD the more sensitive the device is to light and that it provides a wider angle of view.

Question: What are the benefits of using a Varifocal Lens over a Fixed Lens?
Answer: Varifocal Lens often makes installation of cameras much easier as Fixed Lens requires an installer/user to have an accurate and precise knowledge of the field of view; whereas, with the Varifocal Lens, the installer/user can adjust the focal length to achieve the desired field of view.

Question: What is a “Sony Super HAD”?
Answer: Sony Super HAD is a leading type of charged coupled device (CCD) that is used for CCTV cameras made by Sony.  The image quality of Sony CCD’s is generally very high.

Question: What are Infrared LED’s used for?
Answer: Infrared (IR) LED’s are used in conditions where there is no light or very low and limited lighting.  IR’s light up the area covered by the camera with lighting that is invisible to the human eye, yet is clearly seen through the CCTV cameras.

Question: What is Resolution?
Answer: Resolution is measured in Television Lines (TVL).  Usually the higher the TVL means the higher resolution which means the image would be clearer and sharper.

Question: What is DVR?
Answer:  A DVR is a recording device where you run cable from all your cameras to in order to view and record what the cameras are viewing.  A DRV allows you to play back recordings, control what and where is recorded, copy recordings, and log on remotely to view the recording from other locations like from your office, home, or while on vacation.

Question: Can a Bullet Camera be used or installed in indoor environments?
Answer: Yes, Bullet Cameras may be used or installed in both indoor and outdoor environments.

Question: What is a Multiplexer?
Answer: Multiplexers allow the input of more than one camera to display on one monitor.  They might have other functions such as motion detection and can output up to 16 cameras at once on one screen.

Question: What are the benefits of 24VAC over 12VDC?
Answer: When using 24VAC, the voltage drop is less severe than 12VDC; therefore, allowing for better power stability when cameras are installed at further distances from the power source. Also many cameras that run on 24VAC have built-in “Line-Lock” which helps prevent picture rolling on the monitors.  “Sync” pulses are emitted from the cameras to allow a video monitor to synchronize the picture on the screen.
