PLUS

Overview:

eBridge1PCR and eBridge1PCT are CAT5 to Coax cable Ethernet adapters 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. eBridge1PCR receiver sends power over the coax to the 
eBridge1PCT transmitter under PoE protocol. eBridge1PCT, in turn, delivers that PoE-compliant power to a 
PoE- enabled camera or IP device. eBridge1PCR will not deliver power to non-compliant devices, thus avoid-
ing 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 headend to the PoE camera/device is 700m, taking into 
consideration that up to 100m of structured cable may be deployed at each end.
