IPCOAX IPC-M User Manual

Master Unit EKOAX IPC-M
1.
Introduction
The IP through coaxial cable system provided by EKSELANS,
EKOAX
, has been especially
designed to convert the coaxial network into a data network in a very easy manner. The
EKOAX
equipment enables the transmission and reception of an internet signal via the
existing coaxial cable of a television installation, without having to undertake any actions
on the infrastructure.
Simply by adding a headend master equipment (IPC-M) and a slave (IPC-S) at each point
where the internet signal has to be carried, the television installation is upgraded to
transmit IP data at high speed. The IPC-S slave also acts as a Wi-Fi router allowing the
creation of a wireless network easily wherever the IPC-S is installed.
A single IPC-M master equipment supports up to 253 slaves with encrypted
communications. It is also possible to increase the number of IPC-S using the same
network by simply installing new master equipment in tandem (up to 4 IPC-M for the same
coaxial cable).
This user manual includes instructions to manage an IPC-M master unit.
