eBridge1PCRX/PCTX
Installation Instructions:
Wiring methods shall be in accordance with the National Electrical Code/NFPA 70/ANSI, and with all local codes and
authorities having jurisdiction. Wiring should be UL Listed and/or Recognized wire suitable for the application.
eBridge1PCTX and eBridge1PCRX are not intended to be connected to outside plant leads and should be installed
indoors within the protected premises. eBridge1PCTX and eBridge1PCRX are intended for indoor use only.
1.
eBridge1PCRX installation:
a. Secure unit to desired mounting surface with a proper fastening device utilizing the unit’s mounting hole
(Fig. 2a, pg. 3). Unit should be mounted in proximity to ethernet switch/network, NVR or video server.
b. Connect 24VDC to 56VDC Class 2 power supply to wire insert connector [Power --- Input +] (polarity observed)
(Fig. 1, pg. 2). Use 22AWG-16AWG wire for this connection.
c. Connect structured cable from ethernet switch/NVR (network video server) to RJ45 jack marked [10/100BaseT]
(Fig. 2, pg. 3).
d. Connect Coax cable to BNC connector marked [Coax] (Fig. 2, pg. 3).
2.
eBridge1PCTX installation:
a. Secure unit to desired mounting surface with a proper fastening device utilizing the case’s mounting hole
(Fig. 2a, pg. 3). Unit should be mounted in proximity of camera/device.
b. Connect structured cable from IP camera/device to RJ45 jack marked [10/100BaseT] (Fig. 2, pg. 3).
c. Connect Coax cable to BNC connector marked [Coax] (Fig. 2, pg. 3).
Note: The eBridge1PCRTX is designed to accommodate Megapixel, HD720, HD1080 and VGA (SD) cameras. It is
important to note that some high resolution and high frame rate cameras may demand faster headend processing ability,
such as a PC graphics card to present a quality image. If the headend processing equipment is insufficient in speed, the
image may show pixilation and latency. It is advisable to pretest system if unsure. Alternatively, frame rate and resolu-
tion may be reduced to accommodate system equipment.
