IP and PoE+ over Coax Solution, Powered by Midspan or Endspan, Distance: up to 100m

eBridge1PCRM and eBridge1PCTX are CAT5 to Coax cable Ethernet adapters/Media converters that deliver data and power over the coax cable in a PoE+ compliant format. The paired set enables fast 10/100Base-T Ethernet digital communication to be transmitted over Coax cable. An eBridge1PCRM receiver is powered by a PoE midspan or endspan product, such as a NetWay8M and NetWay16M and sends its power over the coax to the eBridge1PCTX transmitter under PoE protocol. This enables the eBridge1PCRM to be used in a managed manner, allowing for remote camera reset. The eBridge1PCTX, in turn, delivers that PoE+ compliant power to a PoE enabled camera or IP device. The eBridge1PCRM will not deliver power to non-compliant devices, thus avoiding damage to improperly connected analog cameras. These plug and play units facilitate system upgrades from analog to IP cameras/devices utilizing existing legacy Coax and eliminating the costs and labor associated with installing new network cabling. In addition, data transmission and power over the Coax is possible up to 457m in comparison to 100m Ethernet maximum distance (see Maximum Length of Coax Type vs. Camera Power/PoE Class, pg. 3). A maximum range from headend to the PoE camera/device is 610m taking into consideration that up to 100m of structured cable may be deployed at each end.
