Lantronix Ethernet Over Coax Extender With PoE+ provides the ability to quickly and easily upgrade older analog surveillance systems with modern PoE powered IP video cameras without the need to replace the wiring infrastructure. These products leverage the existing CCTV 75 ohm coax infrastructure to extend the Ethernet network and provide power to remote camera locations, saving time and money over installing new cable. These extenders communicate at near Gigabit speeds and can also be used in other applications besides surveillance to extend Ethernet networks over an existing coax infrastructure.

The Ethernet Over Coax Extenders with PoE+ are used as a pair of devices, with a local device at one end and a remote device the other end of the coax cable. The extenders provide flexibility for connecting to either copper or fiber Ethernet network equipment. The Local device offers both a 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 and 100/1000Base-X SFP connection, and provides a Gigabit BNC connection with power over coax to the Remote device. The Remote device receives power over coax through the BNC connection and provides both a 100/1000Base-X SFP and a 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 connector output with PoE+ power for IP cameras, wireless access points or other PoE powered end devices. Power for the Local device can be supplied through a properly isolated +48VDC power source or through the designated 90 Watt power adapter. The designated power adapter is optional for providing redundant power at the Remote device.

The Ethernet Over Coax Extenders With PoE+ are supplied with a web GUI, which allows password-protected access to various configuration options of both the Local and Remote devices through a single IP address. It also allows easy upgrades to firmware.
