Altronix EBRIDGE1PCTX Ethernet over Coax Adapter

Altronix EBRIDGE1PCTX Ethernet Over Coax Adapter offers a robust solution for powering and transmitting data to IP devices over existing coaxial infrastructure. This hardened transceiver supports IP and PoE/PoE+ capabilities, enabling efficient communication with a range of devices. It effectively converts CAT5 to coax cable, providing seamless 10/100Base-T Ethernet connectivity while adhering to PoE standards. The eBridge1PCTX is powered by a compatible receiver, such as the eBridge1PCRX or eBridge4PCRX, which delivers power over coax. This innovative design allows for a maximum transmission distance of up to 457 meters, significantly extending the reach beyond the standard 100-meter limit of Ethernet cabling. When considering both coax and structured cabling, the total operational range extends to an impressive 610 meters. Ideal for commercial installations, the eBridge1PCTX simplifies upgrades from analog to IP cameras, eliminating the need for costly new cabling. This plug-and-play system is designed for ease of installation, making it a practical choice for professionals looking to enhance their surveillance capabilities while maximizing existing resources. Trust Altronix to deliver reliable performance with the EBRIDGE1PCTX, a smart investment for any security infrastructure.

Ethernet Over Coax Adapter

IP and PoE/PoE+ over Coax Hardened Transceiver, Powered by Receiver, Distance: Up to 100m

The eBridge1PCTX is a CAT5 to Coax cable Ethernet adapter that delivers data and power over the coax cable in a PoE compliant format. The transceiver enables fast 10/100Base-T Ethernet digital communication to be transmitted over Coax cable. An eBridge1PCRX, eBridge4PCRX, eBridge8PCRX or eBridge16PCRX 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. 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. 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.
