Altronix eBridge1PCRX Installation Instructions - Manual

eBridge1PCRX/PCTX - 1 -
PLUS
Overview:
The eBridge1PCRX 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 commu-
nication to be transmitted over Coax cable. An eBridge1PCRX receiver sends power over the coax to the eBridge1PCTX
transmitter under PoE protocol. The eBridge1PCTX in turn delivers that PoE+ compliant power to a PoE enabled camera
or IP device. The eBridge1PCRX will not deliver power to non compliant devices, thus avoiding accidental power turn into
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 to1500 ft. in comparison to 100m (328 ft.) Ethernet
maximum distance (see Maximum Length of Coax Type vs. Camera Power/PoE Class, pg. 3). A maximum range from head
end to the PoE camera/device is 610m (2000 ft.) taking into consideration that up to 100m (328 ft.) of structured cable may
be deployed at each end.
