Original Press Release:
ComNet Solution Allows Existing Infrastructure Be Utilized for New IP Network Installations
New ComNet Model Allows Ethernet Network Devices to be Connected by Existing CCTV Coax or Phone Lines
Danbury, CT. - ComNet, Communication Networks of Danbury, Connecticut, a leading provider of fiber optic and Ethernet network solutions has introduced a new model that allows Ethernet based equipment to be connected over non-traditional media. The all-new ComWorx(TM) CNFE1CL1MC accepts common 10/100TX Ethernet data and transports it over common 75 W coaxial cable or twisted pair telephone wire. The benefit to the user is that in many installations, CCTV cable or telephone twisted pair is already in place for surveillance cameras, camera control or telephone systems. By using the ComWorx(TM) CNFE1CL1MC, existing 75 W cable or UTP can now transport Ethernet data from different security devices to a network. Ethernet over coaxial cable or twisted pair also offers the additional benefit of extended distances versus traditional Cat5/6 cable. The CNFE1CLMC can extend distances between devices to as much as 500 meters on Coaxial Cable or up to 3000 meters on twisted pair. The output port is a standard BNC connector or terminal block and the input port is a standard RJ-45 connector.
This environmentally hardened Ethernet device is designed to operate in environments where extremes in temperature and vibration are a consideration.
"The ComWorx(TM) CNFE1CLMC was initiated as a solution to allow the end user to control cost by enabling them to utilize existing media for an Ethernet network", said Vic Milani, ComNet Vice President of Product Management. " Our customers were telling us that in many instances where additions and improvements were being made, there were legacy CCTV or phone systems already in place. In today's challenging economy, using a simple solution such as the CNFE1CLMC, gives the end-user or system integrator an option of controlling cost by utilizing perfectly good transmission media instead of incurring the expense of installing an all new traditional Ethernet media", Milani concluded.
Like all ComNet products, the ComWorx(TM) CNFE1CLMC is backed with a lifetime warranty.
"With the introduction of the ComWorx(TM) product line, we are just continuing to round out what is a very complete Ethernet product line," said Skip Haight, ComNet VP of Marketing. "The product lines we're introducing now are the result of years of experience. But the difference between ComNet and the other suppliers is the customer care experience we offer. ComNet is a complete full-service company and not just a product line. From the initial contact forward, our customers will be truly surprised by how good the customer experience is, " Haight continued.
