You will need a UHF modulator to convert the Video output of the DVR to the Input of the AMP

Re: cctv on labgear distribution amp

an RF modulator gives the device a channel.

In other words you plug the video feed from your DVR in to the modulator, and you set a channel number on the modulator.

Connect the modulator to one of the inputs on your distribution amp, and now tune your televisions to find the channel you set.

You will now be distributing your CCTV around your home
