Altronix Unveils New Compact eBridge EoC Adapters at ASIS 2015

  • Sep 28, 2015

Altronix is introducing the new eBridge100ST Ethernet over Coax (EoC) Transceiver here at ASIS 2015. The unit’s small footprint is specifically designed to accommodate today’s compact camera housings. The eBridge100ST is the latest addition to the company’s popular eBridge family of products.

“We are committed to helping installers and end users take advantage of existing coax infrastructure to deploy IP devices while reducing overall equipment, labor and installation costs, and without compromising performance,” said Alan Forman, president, Altronix Corporation. “With the eBridge100ST, these capabilities can be achieved with less real estate for even greater installation flexibility.”

eBridge EoC solutions from Altronix provide a cost-effective means for end users to upgrade and expand their security and surveillance systems using existing coax to support PoE (IEEE 802.3af), PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) and Hi-PoE cameras, accessories and access control devices. The new eBridge100ST is capable of transmitting Ethernet over Coax up to 300 meters at 100Mbps without repeaters. These transceivers are compatible with 1, 4, 8 or 16 port eBridge receivers. The unit is UL listed in the US/Canada and CE approved.

As with all Altronix products, eBridge100ST Ethernet over Coax solutions are made in the U.S.A. and carry a lifetime warranty.

  • 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.
