eBridge1CRT - IP over Coax Solution
eBridge1CR Receiver and eBridge1CT Transceiver Kit
Z1409
Overview:
I.T.E. 43KC
The eBridge1CT and eBridge1CR are CAT5 to Coax cable Ethernet adapters. The paired set enables fast 10/100Base-T
Ethernet digital communication to be transmitted over Coax cable. These plug and play units facilitate system upgrades from analog to IP cameras/devices utilizing existing legacy Coax and eliminating the costs and labor associated with installing new network cabling. In addition data transmission over the Coax is up to 500m (five times the 100m Ethernet maximum length). At the same time the units can combine Composite Video Signal with the Ethernet data enabling connection to an analog input on a monitor or matrix switch.

Wiring methods shall be in accordance with the National Electrical Code/NFPA 70/ANSI, and with all local codes and authorities having jurisdiction. Wiring should be UL Listed and/or Recognized wire suitable for the application.
eBridge1CT and eBridge1CR are not intended to be connected to outside plant leads and should be installed indoors within the protected premises. eBridge1CT and eBridge1CR are intended for indoor use only.
1. eBridge1CR installation:
a. Secure unit to desired mounting surface with a proper fastening device utilizing the unit’s mounting hole
(Fig. 2a, pg. 3). Unit should be mounted in proximity to ethernet switch/network, NVR or video server.
b. Connect 16VAC/24VAC Class 2 plug-in transformer or 12VDC/24VDC (polarity not observed) Class 2 power
supply to jack marked [Power Input] utilizing barrel connector (supplied) (Fig. 1, pg. 2).
Use 22AWG-16AWG wire for this connection.

(Fig. 2, pg. 3).
d. Connect Coax cable to BNC connector marked [Coax] (Fig. 2, pg. 3).
e. For optional simultaneous Composite Video transmission attach the Composite Video Cable (Fig. 2, pg. 3) by
plugging the two (2) position connector into the Comp. Video input marked on the unit
( Note: connector is polarized). Connect the BNC side to the composite video input of the NVR,
monitor display, matrix switch or other headend equipment.
2. eBridge1CT installation:
a. Secure unit to desired mounting surface with a proper fastening device utilizing the case’s mounting hole
(Fig. 2a, pg. 3). Unit should be mounted in proximity of camera/device.
b. Connect 16VAC/24VAC Class 2 plug-in transformer or 12VDC/24VDC (polarity not observed) Class 2 power
supply to jack marked [Power Input] utilizing barrel connector (supplied) (Fig. 2, pg. 3).
Use 22AWG-16AWG wire for this connection.
c. Connect structured cable from IP camera/device to RJ45 jack marked [10/100BaseT] (Fig. 2, pg. 3).
d. Connect Coax cable to BNC connector marked [Coax] (Fig. 2, pg. 3).

Note: The eBridge is designed to accommodate Megapixel, HD720, HD1080 and VGA (SD) cameras. It is important to note that some high resolution and high frame rate cameras may demand faster headend processing ability, such as a
PC graphics card to present a quality image. If the headend processing equipment is insufficient in speed, the image may show pixelation and latency. It is advisable to pre-test system if unsure. Alternatively, frame rate and resolution may be reduced to accommodate system equipment.

Solutions and Installation Notes:
Currently Matrix Switchers, DVRs and NVRs do not readily accommodate multi-picture (Matrix) monitor display capability (typically 4X4 – 16 channel display) for some of the higher resolution cameras. In addition HD cameras use a wide screen format (16:9 aspect ratio). This may not fit as well into the matrix display as the standard screen format
(4:3 aspect ratio). In addition high resolution multichannel recording can introduce unacceptable latency in the real-time monitor display.
To achieve high resolution recording along with real-time multi-channel viewing: Record the high resolution IP video via the NVR and the simultaneous composite video via the Matrix switcher to achieve proper display format (Fig. 3, pg. 3).
