Altronix Pace1PRMT

Overview

The Pace1PRMT is a long-range Ethernet adapter kit that transmits data at 100Mbps full duplex and power via a single twisted pair (UTP) or CAT5e or higher cable in a PoE(+) compliant format. The Pace1PRM receiver is powered via a PoE midspan, such as the Altronix Netway series, or by an endspan. The receiver passes the PoE(+) compliant power over the cable to the Pace1PTM transceiver, which in turn, passes this power to an enabled IP camera/device. These plug-and-play units facilitate cost-effective solutions for IP devices that need to be installed at distances greater than 100m. They also provide a simple way to replace legacy analog products with new IP devices over single twisted pair (UTP) or structured cable.

Installation Instructions

Wiring methods shall be in accordance with the National Electrical Code/NFPA 70/ANSI, and with all local codes and authorities having jurisdiction. Wiring should be UL Listed and/or Recognized wire suitable for the application. Pace1PTM and Pace1PRM are not intended to be connected to outside plant leads and should be installed indoors within the protected premises. Pace1PRM and Pace1PTM are intended for indoor use only.

1. Pace1PRM Installation

1. Secure unit to desired mounting surface with a proper fastening device utilizing the unit's mounting hole (Fig. 2a, pg. 3). Unit should be mounted in proximity to ethernet switch/network, NVR or video server.
2. Connect structured cable from ethernet midspan or endspan device to RJ45 jack marked [PoE Input] (Fig. 2, pg. 3).
3. CAT5e or higher: Connect CAT5e or higher to connector marked [RJ45 Link] (Fig. 2, pg. 3).
4. UTP: Connect UTP to connector marked [UTP Link] (Fig. 2, pg. 3).

2. Pace1PTM Installation

1. Secure unit to desired mounting surface with a proper fastening device utilizing the case's mounting hole (Fig. 2a, pg. 3). Unit should be mounted in proximity of camera/device.
2. Connect structured cable from IP camera/device to RJ45 jack marked [PoE Out] (Fig. 2, pg. 3).
3. CAT5e or higher: Connect CAT5e or higher to connector marked [RJ45 Link] (Fig. 2, pg. 3).

Diagram Descriptions

Figure 1: Pace1PRM and Pace1PTM Connections

This diagram illustrates two connection scenarios. The left side shows a Pace1PRM receiver connected to a midspan/endspan via structured cable, with a green LED indicating PoE presence. The right side shows a Pace1PTM transceiver connected to a camera/device via single UTP or CAT5/higher cable, with a green LED indicating PoE transmission.

Note: Caution, once PoE connection is established between Pace1PRM and Pace1PTM, disconnection from Pace1PTM will not disable the PoE output voltage on the Pace1PRM. Although the Pace1PTM can be reconnected, caution should be taken not to connect the CAT5e or single UTP wiring from Pace1PRM to any non-PoE device.

Figure 2 & 2a: Single PoE Camera Connection

This diagram shows a single PoE camera connected to a Pace1PTM transceiver. The Pace1PTM is linked via CAT5e (up to 500m) or UTP (up to 153m) to a Pace1PRM receiver. The Pace1PRM receiver is connected to a powered switch or NetWay MidSpan. The diagram indicates PoE+ over CAT5e up to 500m and PoE compliant over UTP up to 100m.

Figure 3: Multiple PoE Cameras Connection

This diagram illustrates the connection of multiple PoE cameras. Several Pace1PRM units are shown connected to a powered switch or NetWay MidSpan. Each Pace1PRM is then connected to a Pace1PTM transceiver, which in turn connects to a PoE camera. The maximum distances are specified: up to 500m for CAT5e and up to 153m for UTP. Each Pace1PTM is shown as PoE compliant up to 100m.

Maximum Length of Cable Type vs. Camera Power/PoE Class

CAT5e

Single UTP (23AWG)

Note: Calculations based on 56VDC starting voltage from power source and accounts for a 10VDC voltage drop. IEEE standards voltage range requirement for powered devices are: PoE (15W) - 37VDC to 57VDC; PoE+ (30W) - 44VDC to 57VDC.
