Altronix Corp EBRIDGE100TM Eoc Poe Plus Media Converter

Product Description

The ALTRONIX CORP EBRIDGE100TM is a single-channel Ethernet over Coax (EoC) media converter that delivers transparent passthrough PoE+ capability at 100 Mbps. It converts standard coaxial cable infrastructure into a network-capable pathway, allowing installers to extend Ethernet and Power over Ethernet to IP devices without running new CAT cable. This unit supports the PoE+ standard, enabling it to power devices with higher draw requirements. Security integrators, low-voltage technicians, and structured cabling contractors typically install this device when retrofitting legacy coax runs for IP camera systems or similar network-connected equipment.

The EBRIDGE100TM is suited for commercial and residential security installations where existing RG-59 or RG-6 coaxial cable is already in place. It allows technicians to repurpose that existing infrastructure to support IP-based devices, avoiding the cost and labor of new cable pulls. Typical deployment involves pairing two units at each end of a coax run to bridge an IP network segment across the coax span.

Key Features

• Single-channel EoC conversion extends Ethernet over existing coaxial cable
• Transparent passthrough operation requires no configuration or managed setup
• PoE+ passthrough powers connected IP devices directly over the coax link
• 100 Mbps data rate supports standard IP camera and network device traffic
• Sold as a single unit (each) for flexible pairing and deployment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style media converter for use in EoC installations where existing coaxial cable infrastructure is being repurposed for IP network and PoE+ device connectivity.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or security systems integrator. Power down all connected devices and de-energize PoE source equipment before making connections. Follow NEC low-voltage wiring guidelines for any in-wall or plenum coax routing. Two units are required per coax run, one at each end, to complete the EoC bridge.
