Altronix Pace2KRT is a long-range Ethernet adapter kit solution that transmits data and power via twisted pair (2-wire, UTP or shielded) in a PoE(+) compliant format. In addition to new SPE (UTP) Ethernet network installations for Surveillance cameras/Security/Industrial/BMS/HVAC/Elevator Controllers, applications include upgrading of legacy networks, i.e. LONworks, RS485, 4-20ma Control Loops, etc. by using the existing two wire cabling, thus saving rip-out & reinstallation costs. Operationally, the Pace1KR is connected to a POE midspan/endspan switch at the headend and passes network data and power to the Pace2KT from the switch via UTP up to 1km (1,000m, 3,280 ft.) to two (2) remote 10/100 POE devices, such a as a camera/s or controllers. Data is only supplied to the remote device for non-enabled devices. Cable distances and multi-node device drop-offs are facilitated by using one of the two Pace2KT ports for the continued network link in a daisy chain manner.
