Media Converter (PMC100) is the latest broadband wiring technology, which may thoroughly solve IP cameras' troublesome wiring problems. PMC100 enables to cabling the IP surveillance fast, and Save the cost.
PMC100 can use coaxial cable or phone line (Twisted Pair) as the transmission medium. Therefore, for those areas having existed wires (original analog surveillance), as long as installing PMC100, there is no requirement for camera transmission wires or re-wiring. Regarding to system integrators, it not only makes wiring more convenient, but saves time and cost. PMC100 is the best solution for system integrators (SI).
Features
Plug & Play
Long transmission distance, within 1.5 Kilo Meters no repeater is required

Support long distance/power unreachable. (Road, Bridge)
Support high interference environment. (Elevator, Tunnel)
RS-485 integration for entrance, fire or alarm control.
Modular design, quick installation and cost reduction in wiring.
Use phone line/cable system. Compatible to existing phone and cable system.
PMC provides the advantage of low cost in physical layer design of network surveillance and management. The reason for such design reducing the required cost is that the video & audio transmission is done via the legacy coaxial cable or telephone line. Thus, installation of PMC is quite straightforward and cost effective on cabling; no additional cables are required.
Simple Installation
No software/driver installation is required; simply plug and ply. It is compatible with any network protocol. PMCs are applied in pairs. Each PMC has one connection to its opposite PMC and the other connection (RJ45) to the network devices. Therefore, by bridging an existed connection, it is just as straight RJ45 to RJ45 connection. No MAC or IP address is required to set for PMC.
Distance and bandwidth
Measuring by the official bandwidth meter, Smart Bits, PMC in the transmission distance of 1.5KM (1500 meters) can still keep in 25 ~ 30 Mbps. Upon this condition, the bandwidth is plenty for video transmission of 8 IP cameras (calculated by 3 Mbps bandwidth required for each camera). In addition, as the plenty of bandwidth it also supports the transferring of high definition television (HDTV) signal which is applicable to those video & audio service providers.
Environmental application
By applying the existed cables, PMC can meet the requirements of interference-resistant (tunnels, lifts) or distancing (countryside, villages, bridges). Furthermore, the RS485 compliant model can integrate with the functions of fire, entrance, alarm, control management and etc.
IP cam with Ethernet cable
Transmission distance is limited, up to 100 meters.
Ethernet cable is improbable for outdoor usage.
IP cam with PMC
Transmission distance can be extended over 1 KM.
Broad band (100Mbps) can support for multiple IP cams input.
Telephone line / coaxial can be more probable for outdoor usage.
