from a recent local store refit

was given some Vantage cameras aand i have managed to get them to work, but some of them have a RJ45 port on the back (model: VGC202) and i wanted to know what these are for and that.

also if anyone has any manuals would be great

Thanks

If they have an RJ45 as well as a BNC or composite I would say its either a Hybrid camera or its a built in balun.

hi mate

thanks fot you reply

what does t mean if its hyrid or has a built in balun?

Well a hybrid is IP and analog Like this Sony

and a balun converts twisted pair to coax or vis-cersa like this

I am not familiar with vantage and cant translat the websites I have found otherwise I might be of more help.

its got a bnc plug as well as a rj45

i got it might b an IP camera but dont know IP of it

It's definately not an IP camera.

It looks like a fairly average 1/3" 350 line colour camera.

If you're anywhere near the U.K., the model is listed in Gardiner Security's catalogue.

Maybe give their technical department a ring or drop them an e-mail and see if they can provide a technical manual, or .pdf which might point you in the right direction

It may b for rs485 with an adaption plug
