eBridge100RMT Installation Guide

Overview:

Altronix eBridge100RMT is a versatile dual solution Ethernet adapter/media converter kit which transmits data 

at 100Mbps full duplex and power over Coax cable or extended CAT5e cable in a PoE+ compliant format. The 

eBridge100RM is powered via a PoE midspan such as the Altronix Netway series or by an endspan. The receiver 

passes the PoE(+) compliant power over cable to the eBridge100TM transceiver which in turn passes this power 

to an enabled IP Camera/device. These plug and play units facilitate cost effective solutions for IP devices that 

need to be installed at distances greater than 100m. They also provide a simple way to replace legacy analog 

products with new IP devices over existing coax or structured cable.
