Veracity HIGHWIRE PoE is an Ethernet to coaxial cable adapter that adds PoE to the network port. The adapter converts the symmetrical send/receive Ethernet signals into asymmetrical signals and then combines them to be transported over a single strand of copper. The adapter also converts the 12VDC or 24VAC power supply for the legacy analogue camera into PoE on the network port.
By employing a Veracity HIGHWIRE adapter together with a Veracity HIREWIRE PoE at the remote end it is possible to use existing coaxial cable to transmit fully specified Ethernet signals transparently across a link of up to 500m and provide PoE proximal to the IP-Camera.

- Applications
IP-SURVEILLANCE
Reuse legacy cable when upgrading from analogue to IP-Surveillance.
LONG RANGE NETWORKING
Use HIGHWIRE as a cost-effective means to deploy network connections beyond 100 metres - for example a buried RG-11 cable can be used to deliver a network connection between buildings 500 metres apart.
TRANSPORTATION
HIGHWIRE can be used on legacy coaxial cables found in rail transport or elsewhere, and its universal power input makes it well-suited to low-voltage installations.
ELEVATORS
Because coaxial cable will coil and bend properly, unlike Cat 5 cable, HIGHWIRE provides an ideal means to provide network access to elevator carriages, for VoIP, security, lift panel and other devices.
ANYWHERE THERE IS COAXIAL CABLE
HIGHWIRE has been deployed over all types of video cable, radar, TV antenna and satellite downlinks, armored steel cables, you name it. 50 ohm coax or cables of other impedance can normally be used without any modification to the unit.
