ER8500C
Description
The ER8500C is another component of NITEK's cutting edge
stretch
solution allows for the utilization of existing cable infrastructure (coax or UTP) to trans-
mit data from IP cameras and other network devices along with power (PoE & PoE+) to operate
these networked devices over the given wire media well over the 100m/328ft networking dis-
tance limitation.
The ER8500C is a rack mounted eight (8) port power sourcing receiver unit with built-in gigabit
switching capabilities. The unit requires very little installation time and absolutely no set up or
configuration. The ER8500C and associated ET1500C transmitters (up to 8) can quickly turn
ordinary RG59 coax cables into a series of high speed network communication and PoE path-
ways.
The ER8500C is completely transparent to the network thus requiring no IP and MAC
addressing. Simply connect your network devices to the transmitter LAN ports along with the
existing cables to the receiver and the system quickly begins communicating. LED indicators
show the status and data speed of network communications along with PoE power confirma-
tion.

distance limitations offering connectivity to devices in locations traditional networking does not
allow. The ER8500C is ideal for retro-fitting existing installations. The rack mounted unit is
robustly constructed of molded steel casing with appropriate built in cooling and ventilation.
