Many businesses and homeowners, the prospect of upgrading to a modern IP system is daunting, primarily due to the perceived need to replace existing coaxial cable infrastructure. Fortunately, with the advent of PoE (Power over Ethernet) over Coax Converters, upgrading to an IP system without replacing coaxial cables has become not only possible but also remarkably straightforward.
Understanding the Challenge
Traditional analog camera systems are deeply entrenched in coaxial cable infrastructure. These systems are limited in resolution, scalability, and functionality compared to their IP counterparts. Upgrading to an IP system typically means installing new network cabling, which can be disruptive and costly. This is where PoE over Coax technology changes the game.
The Solution: PoE Over Coax Converters
PoE over Coax Converters are devices designed to transmit both power and data over existing coaxial cables. This innovative solution allows for the transmission of IP data and PoE power using the same coaxial cable that was once only capable of transmitting analog signals.
How Does It Work?
The EOC converter includes two units: a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter is connected to the IP camera, while the receiver is connected to the network switch or PoE NVR. The existing coaxial cable is used as the transmission medium between the two units. This setup allows the analog camera system to be upgraded to an IP system using the existing cabling infrastructure.
