The Etherstretch™ ET1500UWS Outdoor IP camera network extender-PoE Inserter with Surge Suppression is another of the IP Video Transmission Solutions from NITEK. The System includes a transmitter, surge suppression unit and a NEMA4X rated enclosure to house the transmitter and surge units. Operates with ER8500U or ER16500U Receiver Unit (purchase separately). The system transmits IP cameras over network category cables and can quickly turn any ordinary 4 pair category cable into a high speed network communication & PoE path.

When operating over UTP category cable, the network extender system can operate for distances of up to 600 meters (1,940 feet) with the ER8500U or 16500U Receivers. The ET1500UWS coax ethernet extender transmitter consists of a weatherproof enclosure which houses the transmitter and surge unit and a standard receiver. The system requires very little installation time & absolutely no set up or configuration. The The ET1500U ethernet extender transmitter is transparent to the network and has no IP or MAC addressing. Simply connect your network devices to the network ports of the transmitter and receiver along with existing cabling and the system begins communicating. LED indicators show the status of network communication and PoE power.

When connected to a PoE switch, power from the switch is used as the power source for the connected ET1500UWS transmitter. In applications where network switches are not PoE capable, an optional power Inserter (IP1054 sold separately) can be used to insert power to the ET1500UWS transmitter. The power is sent from the receiver over the coax to the transmitter. The transmitter uses PoE as its power source and powers the connected PoE network device as well. The ET1500UWS network extender system extends network communications to overcome cable distance limitations offering connections to devices in locations traditional networking does not allow.
