INSTALLATION GUIDE
ER8500C
8 Port IP Video Extender Over Coax
With Built-In Gigabit PoE Switch with
EtherStretch
The ER8500C is another component of the NITEK cutting edge EtherStretch line. Our EtherStretch solution
allows for the utilization of existing cable infrastructure (coax or UTP) to transmit data from IP cameras and
other network devices along with power (PoE & PoE+) to operate these networked devices over the given
copper media well over the 100 meter or 328 feet networking distance limitation.
The ER8500C is a Ethernet & PoE extending rack mounted sixteen port, power sourcing receiver unit with
built-in Gigabit switching capabilities. The unit requires very little installation time and absolutely no set up or
configuration. Independently the ER8500C will work as a Layer 2 PoE+ switch. Additionally, the ER8500C
and associated ET1500C transmitters (up to 8) can quickly turn ordinary coaxial cables into a series of high
speed network communication and PoE pathways. The ER16500C is a fully functional Layer 2 PoE+ network
switch with a 802.3AT power output on each of the sixteen network ports. Additionally, when used with the
ET1500C transmitters the system allows for cable runs of up to 500m/1600ft supplying both a network con-
nection and PoE+ power.
The ER8500C is completely transparent to the network thus requiring no IP and MAC addressing. Simply
connect your network devices to the transmitter LAN ports along with the existing cables to the receiver and
the system quickly begins communicating. LED indicators show the status and data speed of network com-
munications along with PoE power confirmation.
NITEK EtherStretch
ER8500C reliably extends network communications to overcome cable distance limita-
tions offering connectivity to devices in locations traditional networking does not allow. The ER8500C is ideal
for retro-fitting existing installations. The rack mounted unit is robustly constructed of molded steel casing
with appropriate built in cooling and ventilation.
