Product Usage Instructions
- Ensure that you have the required infrastructure for the product usage:
- An analogue environment or a site with limited IP infrastructure
- A two-wire or coaxial cable
- Choose a suitable location for installation, considering the reach and compatibility of the product.
- Connect the Ethernet Interface:
- Use an RJ45 connector to connect the two-wire or coaxial cable to the Ethernet device you want to connect.
- Ensure the connection speed is set to match the Ethernet device’s capability (10/100 Base T, half-duplex / full-duplex).
- If your Ethernet device requires power over Ethernet (PoE), make sure it is compatible with IEEE 802.3af/at and PoE+ standards.
- Connect the Extension Cable Interface:
- Use a 2-wire, Cat 5e, Cat 6, or similar cable to extend the reach of your IP-connected devices.
- Ensure the impedance of the cable falls within the range of 25 to 100 ohms.
- The maximum transfer range achievable with Cat 6 cable is 220 m (720 ft).
- Set the access method to CSMA/CA and TDMA, and the modulation method to Windowed OFDM.
- The frequency band should be set between 1.8 MHz and 30 MHz.
- Power Supply:
- Connect the included adapter to an AC power source with an input voltage ranging from 100 to 240 VAC and a frequency of 50 to 60 Hz.
- Ensure the DC output of the adapter is 48 VDC with a current rating between 0.84 A and 1.3 A.
- Make sure the electrical characteristics of the power supply are within the specified range (Uin < 1.1V (L), Uin > 3V (H), max. Uin = 32V).
- Observe the LED indicator lights to monitor the power supply, BNC, and PoE status.
- Enjoy reliable Ethernet connectivity and extended reach for your IP-connected devices in analogue or limited IP infrastructure environments.
2N® 2Wire
2N® 2Wire is a converter that allows you to connect any IP device in places without an IP infrastructure. You only need to use the existing cable wiring from a doorbell or telephone. What’s more, one cable is all you need for both data transfer and power supply.
- Buildings with analogue infrastructure
- Sites with limited IP infrastructure
Ethernet including PoE over 2 wires
Connect any IP device using a two-wire or coaxial cable, even in an analogue
environment, or a site with limited IP infrastructure.
Easy installation
No more configuring! At each end of the cable you just plug in one 2N® 2Wire
unit and connect at least one of them to a power source.
Long reach
Powering the IP-connected devices via PoE is possible up to a distance of 220
m, twice the maximum Ethernet specification cable length.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
-
Universal Ethernet ‘extension’
With 2N® 2Wire you’ll get Ethernet even in places with no IP network. You can hook up any IP devices, e.g. 2N IP intercoms. -
Robust aluminium housing
Thanks to its aluminium housing the 2N® 2Wire converter is rugged and resistant to mechanical damage. -
Utilize existing cabling
2N® 2Wire enables you to make use of existing wiring. You won’t have to lay new cables or do construction work. -
Reliability
The converter will not let you down. It is significantly more reliable, in comparison withalternatives, such as a WiFi connection. -
Screw-in connectors
2N® 2Wire uses high-quality connectors, which prevents cables from falling out, giving you even more reliability. -
Power supply
Included is an adapter with a selectable US/UK/EU plug.
