Features:
• 100 BaseT transmission; Network speeds up to 93 Mbps*; Up to 8,000ft (2,500m)*
• One NV-EC1701 transceiver at the network-end can support multiple* remote transceivers/IP
cameras using the NV-EC4BNC adaptor/splitter.
• Powers PoE, PoE+, or High Power PoE cameras (or other PoE devices), up to 50 watts*
• Transparently supports all networking protocols (UDP, TCP/IP, HTTP, Multicast*, etc.)
The NVT Model NV-EC1701 Ethernet over Coax Transceiver is a compact media converter that allows
10/100 BaseT Ethernet and PoE+ power to be transmitted using coax cable. These devices are often
used in legacy installations where existing cable is re-deployed as part of an upgrade to IP cameras. 56
VDC class 2 power is delivered to one transceiver, which distributes it to multiple* remote transmitters,
and their PoE, PoE+, or High Power PoE cameras*.
These transceivers are extremely simple to use, with no IP or MAC addressing required. Status LEDs
indicate power and link connectivity/activity for RJ45 and BNC ports They are backed by NVT’s award
winning customer support and limited lifetime warranty.
* Distance and number of devices supported may be lower due to power supply capacity and wire voltage-drop. See Wire Distance Charts on page 5.
Bandwidth is dynamically allocated. Multicast requires an IGMP Querier within your network switch. High bandwidth streaming devices (>15Mbps) that
employ unusually “chatty”protocols (TCP/IP, TFTP, etc.) are not recommended. Use RTP/UDP instead.
Use only the power cord provided with the unit or equivalent UL approved

NV-EC1701 POWER DATA DISTANCE CHART
The distance capability of wire is dependant on its ability to deliver DC power, and separately, to deliver high-
frequency data signals.
The graph below shows maximum power delivery when using a 56V power supply. If you are locally powering
your camera (or other remote device), then this graph does not apply. The graph on the next page shows the
maximum data delivery rate.
PoE devices require a minimum of 43V to operate. With a 56V supply, we have up to 13V of allowable
voltage drop on the wire.
The voltage will dip in proportion to the remote (camera) load. The graph below shows what PoE power
distances are supported for various loads and wire types.
• Start with the camera wattage at the left. Sometimes IP cameras are listed as to their PoE Class rather
than wattage.
• Now read over to the right until you find your kind of wire. Then look up (feet) or down (meters) to find your
maximum distance.
• If your wire is not among the examples, simply measure its total resistance and find the value on the right
side of the graph. The maximum supported wattage is on the left.
• There are a wide variety of wire qualities, from copper-plated steel at the low end (CATV wire) to high
performance low-loss pure copper. The graph below will help you determine your data throughput as a func-
tion of wire type and distance.
