Eight-channel EOC base unit

The VERACITY USA HIGHWIRE Powerstar Base 8 is an 8-channel Ethernet-over-coax base unit designed for IP video networks. It delivers full duplex 100Base-TX performance on each coaxial link and requires only one main switch port for all eight channels. The desktop form factor supports automatic configuration for simple installation.

Suits installers extending IP cameras over

This unit suits installers who need to run up to 32 IP channels in a single 1U rack space using four base units. It provides PoE or PoE+ on every channel with up to 25W per port. Buyers who need fibre uplinks without an SFP module or who require switch ports beyond the single uplink should look at other solutions.

Fits in a 1U rack with optional power supply

Four base units mount together in 1U, leaving space for an optional internal power supply. A gigabit uplink port with an SFP socket handles fibre connectivity. Coaxial reach extends up to 300m on RG59, 400m on RG6 and 500m on RG11, freeing installers from pulling new Ethernet cabling.

Highlights

  • 8 channels per Base unit, up to 32 channels in 1U
  • Full duplex 100Base-TX performance on each coax link
  • Gigabit uplink port with fibre option via SFP socket
  • Only 1 main switch port required per 8 channels
