IP Video

Using ITU-T G.9954 for Connecting IP-based Devices
The use of IP-based devices such as IP Video Cameras is growing exponentially. A very cost effective method to network these devices is to use the existing coax or twisted pair cabling that was used for analog video cameras and other legacy devices. This G.9954 protocol provides 120Mbps transport now and 230Mbps in the near future.

Open Standards Based
The IPcoax 602 Coax Ethernet Bridge supports the ITU-T G.9954 standard for Ethernet over Coax.

IPcoax 602 IP Video Deployment over Existing Coax
The existing Analog Video Cameras are disconnected from the existing coax cables. The Client 602 is connected to existing Coax and the IP Video Camera is plugged into the 602 Ethernet Port. Both units are powered from the 12VDC that powered the analog camera. The 602s are direct connected or RF- combined back to an IPcoax 2400 or a RHINO IPC.

IP Video using a Hardened Gigabit Ethernet Ring
ReadyLinks provides two solutions for IP Ethernet aggregation - the IPcoax 2400 and the RHINO IPC. The IPcoax 2400 is a 24 port coax Ethernet switch. Each port supports a 10Mbps data stream. This is the ideal bandwidth for IP Video camera transport. The 24 coax ports are aggregated onto Gigabit Ethernet optical ports that can be configured in Point to Point, Chained and Ring configurations.

The RHINO IPC is a rugged GigE transport platform with an integrated Ethernet switch. The service inputs to the IPC are four (4) 10/100 Ethernet ports and an ITU G.9954 Ethernet over coax port. The network ports are Gigabit Ethernet and can be any distance range of single mode or multimode fiber or copper.

All ReadyLinks Gigabit Ethernet based products can be connected together to form extremely cost effective networks.
