Altronix eBridge4PCRM Installation Manual

eBridge4PCRM - IP and PoE+ over Coax Solution
Operates with eBridge1PCTX Transceiver or eBridge1ST Mini Transceiver.
eBridge4PCRM and eBridge1PCTX or eBridge1ST 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. eBridge4PCRM receiver is powered by a UL Listed limited power source,
PoE midspan or endspan product, such as a NetWay8M and NetWay16M, and sends its power over the coax to the eBridge
1PCTX or eBridge1ST transmitter under PoE protocol. This enables the eBridge4PCRM to be used in a managed manner,
allowing for remote camera reset. The eBridge1PCTX or eBridge1ST, in turn, delivers that PoE+ compliant power to a
PoE enabled camera or IP device. eBridge4PCRM 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 500m in comparison to 100m 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, taking into consideration that up to 100m of structured cable may be deployed at each end.
