Altronix Showcases New Pace Long Range Ethernet Adapters

  • Oct 03, 2014

Altronix is displaying its new line of Pace Long Range Ethernet Adapters at ASIS 2014. New Pace models include receivers with one, 4, 8 and 16 ports, and full duplex 100Mpbs at distances up to 500m over CAT5e without repeaters. The one port receiver accommodates single twisted pair (UTP) cabling up to 150m.  

“Our new Pace multi-port 100Mbps full duplex models provide versatile system scalability for deploying today’s advanced IP devices over longer distances,” said Alan Forman, president, Altronix. “The ability to go five times beyond standard Ethernet distance without repeaters reduces installation labor and equipment costs.”

Pace enables the placement of edge devices at distances up to 500m over CAT5e without repeaters. With single twisted pair (UTP) cabling, distances of up to 150m can be achieved – that’s 50% greater than standard Ethernet. Pace Long Range Ethernet Adapters are PoE and PoE+ compliant, and can accommodate Hi-PoE (60W).

As with all Altronix products, Pace Long Range Ethernet Adapters are made in the U.S.A. and backed by a lifetime warranty.

  • The Evolution of IP Camera Intelligence

    As the 30th anniversary of the IP camera approaches in 2026, it is worth reflecting on how far we have come. The first network camera, launched in 1996, delivered one frame every 17 seconds—not impressive by today’s standards, but groundbreaking at the time. It did something that no analog system could: transmit video over a standard IP network. Read Now

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
