Press Release Summary:

TN-EOT-xx Ethernet Extender is designed to connect distant workstations, devices or workgroups to a corporate network. Unit is operated in a temperature range of -40°C to 75°C and comes with RJ-45 connector for 2-wire applications and RJ-45-to-BNC adapter for coax applications. Offering maximum data rate of 300Mbps, product can extend Ethernet service on 2-wire cabling over distances up to 400 meters. TN-EOT-xx is compatible with networking device with a Gigabit SFP slot and is suitable for IP security camera applications.


Original Press Release:

Transition Networks' New Small Form-Factor Pluggable Extender Delivers up to 300Mbps Ethernet Throughput over Coax or 2-Wire Cabling

Extender Is a Plug-and-Play Device for SFP Ports on Any Switch or Media Converter; It Gives New Life to Legacy 2-Wire or Coax Cable Infrastructure

Transition Networks, Inc., a leading provider of innovative, high-value, data network integration solutions, today announced a new small form-factor pluggable (SFP)-based Ethernet extender (TN-EOT-xx) designed to connect distant workstations, devices, or workgroups to a corporate network using legacy copper cabling at up to 300Mbps.

The Ethernet Extender provides the ability to leverage existing 2-wire or coax cable infrastructure to extend Ethernet service. The TN-EOT-xx device can extend Ethernet service on 2-wire cabling over distances up to 400 meters at 200Mbps bi-directional data rate, or extend Ethernet on coax cabling over distances up to 500 meters at 300Mbps bi-directional data rate. The device has a maximum data rate of 300Mbps, the fastest possible bandwidth for legacy cabling provided by an SFP device.

"With the growing demand for a network infrastructure that supports higher data rates, administrators, integrators, and contractors are discovering that utilizing existing cabling infrastructure rather than installing new fiber-optic or new CAT5 copper cabling is a much more cost-effective way to extend their Ethernet network," said Scott Otis, president of Transition Networks. "Transition Networks has helped customers evolve their networks quickly and more cost effectively for years, with a wide range of Ethernet extender products. This new SFP extender is a flexible way to leverage legacy coax and 2-wire cabling."

The SFP is plug-and-play, requiring no configuration or set up on the host device. It is ideal in IP security camera applications where the legacy cabling used for analog CCTV cameras can be re-used for Ethernet-based cameras in both indoor and temperature-hardened environments.

The extender complies with MSA standards and is compatible with any networking device with a Gigabit SFP slot. The extender can operate at a wide -40°C to 75°C temperature range. The device features an RJ-45 connector for 2-wire applications and an RJ-45-to-BNC adapter for coax applications.

The TN-EOT-CO (for the server site) and the TN-EOT-RT (for the remote site) are used in pairs and are available now. Transition Networks also offer a variety of Ethernet Extenders that deliver power along with data over Ethernet or coax cabling as well. For more information, visit Transition Networks.
