The NVT Model NV-ER1816i TBus Ethernet over Coax/UTP Receiver Hub is a 1U 19" rack mountable bus-architected media switch that has 16 TBus ports, capable of supporting up to 64 TBus transmitters and their subsequent 10/100 BaseT Ethernet and PoE+ power ed devices*.
The TBus transmission medium can be coax, 2-wire/UTP, or Shielded Twisted-Pair. Data rates up to 200 Mbps are achievable, making this device the ideal choice in new or legacy installations where existing cable is re-deployed as part of an upgrade to IP cameras. An internal 250 watt 56 V DC power supply can be optionally augmented by an external 250 watt auxiliary power supply, supporting redundancy and/or higher power applications.
No IP or MAC addressing configuration is required, yet is available for browser-based monitoring and control. This provides exceptional yet simple configuration and diagnostics for the installer or remote monitoring facility.
Status LEDs indicate power, auxiliary power, and link connectivity/activity.
*Distance and number of devices supported may lower due to limited power supply capacity and wire voltage-drop, or data-rate limiting due to the selected wire's high-frequency signal attenuation.
- Transmit 10/100 BaseT Full Duplex Ethernet up to 8,000ft over RG-59/U, 2,000ft over 2-wire/UTP or 1,300ft over Shielded Twisted Pair*
- The TBus architecture allows multipoint operation in any star or daisy-chained topology, with any combination of wire types, and up to 64 remote transmitters/IP cameras
- Transparently supports all networking protocols (UDP, TCP/IP, HTTP, Multicast etc.) using advanced 128-bit AES encryption
- Dual 10/100/1000 uplink ethernet connectivity
- Easy configuration, no PCuired
- 56 V DC is distributed over the TBus to all connected equipment. PoE, PoE+, or High Power PoE cameras (or other PoE devices), up to 50 watts* are supported
