Quick Start Guide

This quick start guide describes how to install and use the Ethernet
Extender over coaxial cable. This is the Ethernet Extender of choice
for environments constrained by space.

Installation

ED3238T (Transmitter): This is a PoL (Power over Link) transmitter.

Data and power can be delivered at the same time through a coaxial
cable to turn on and communicate with ED3238R (Receiver) via
BNC interface.

ED3238R (Receiver): This is a PoL (Power over Link) Receiver.
ED3238R (Receiver) can be powered by ED3238T (Transmitter)
through a coaxial cable. The Ethernet port of ED3238R (Receiver)
supports IEEE802.3af PoE/PSE for fulfilling PoE/PD application.
