As the MC252-1T-1CXP is power over coaxial, it only can work with
MC252-1P-1CX. If connects with Non-PoE coax-LAN equipment, it might
cause the equipment to damage.
Please take care of the conditions of the Nominal Conductor DC resistance value of cables as
follows.
Coaxial Cable Type
RG-59/U (Bare Copper conductor, 20AWG)
RG-6/U (Bare Copper conductor, 18AWG)
Less than 30Ω /1000 ft.
Less than 12Ω /1000 ft.
There are various resistance values in the category of RG-59/U or RG-6/U cable.
