Product Features
Technical Overview
This receiver operates on Fast Ethernet technology with 10/100Base-TX network support, delivering data transfer rates up to 100 Mbps over twisted pair cable. It features two total ports: one standard RJ-45 network port and one PoE-enabled RJ-45 port, allowing for both data and power transmission to connected devices such as IP cameras or wireless access points.
The device supports both twisted pair and coaxial media types, enabling conversion between these cable standards. With a maximum distance of 0.46 km, it extends network reach significantly beyond typical Ethernet limitations while maintaining signal integrity for low-bandwidth applications.
This section brings together practical product details such as Total Number of Ports, Network (RJ-45), DVI, Media Type Supported, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.

- Maintains signal quality over long distances
Infrastructure Preservation
Leverages existing coaxial cable investments while enabling modern IP network connectivity, providing a cost-effective upgrade path for legacy systems.
- Reduces cable replacement costs
- Simplifies network modernization
Compact Design
The desktop form factor with dimensions of 3.48" × 3.80" × 1" and weight of 124.7 g allows for placement in various locations without dedicated rack space.
- Easy to position on desks or shelves
- Minimal footprint for space-constrained areas
Deployment / Use Cases
The Altronix EBRIDGE1PCR is particularly valuable in environments where coaxial cable infrastructure already exists but IP network connectivity is required. Its combination of data conversion and PoE delivery makes it versatile for multiple deployment scenarios.
In industrial settings, this receiver can connect IP cameras, access points, or sensors over long distances using existing coaxial runs. Laboratory environments benefit from its ability to extend network coverage to equipment areas without disrupting existing cable pathways. The desktop installation option makes it suitable for temporary deployments or locations where rack space is unavailable.
Surveillance Systems
Extend IP camera networks over existing coaxial cable while providing power through PoE, eliminating the need for separate power supplies at remote camera locations.
Industrial Automation
Connect networked devices in manufacturing or processing facilities where coaxial cable was previously installed for analog systems, enabling digital upgrade without complete rewiring.

FAQ
What types of cable does the EBRIDGE1PCR support?
The Altronix EBRIDGE1PCR supports both twisted pair (Ethernet) and coaxial cable media. This allows it to convert signals between these two cable types, enabling the integration of legacy coaxial infrastructure with modern IP networks while maintaining connectivity over distances up to 0.46 km.
How many PoE ports does this receiver have?
This device features one PoE-enabled RJ-45 port that can deliver Power over Ethernet to connected devices. The PoE capability allows you to power compatible devices such as IP cameras or wireless access points through the same cable that carries network data, simplifying installation in remote locations.
What is the maximum network distance supported?
The EBRIDGE1PCR supports network extension up to 0.46 kilometers (approximately 0.28 miles). This extended reach makes it suitable for large facilities, outdoor installations, or industrial environments where devices need to be connected over longer distances than standard Ethernet cables typically allow.
What network speed does this converter support?
This receiver operates on Fast Ethernet technology with 10/100Base-TX network support, providing data transfer rates up to 100 Mbps. This speed is sufficient for low-bandwidth applications such as IP surveillance, sensor networks, or basic data connectivity in industrial and laboratory environments.
Is this device suitable for rack mounting?
No, the EBRIDGE1PCR features a desktop form factor designed for placement on flat surfaces rather than rack mounting. Its compact dimensions of 3.48" × 3.80" × 1" and lightweight 124.7 g construction make it ideal for deployments outside traditional wiring closets, such as on desks, shelves, or equipment racks with available surface space.
