Model NV-ER1804 TBus™ Four Port Receiver
Features:
• Transmit 10/100 BaseT Full Duplex Ethernet up to 8,000ft over RG-59/U, 2,000ft over
2-Wire/UTP, or 1,300ft over Shielded Twisted Pair*
• The TBus architecture allows multipoint operation in any star or daisy-chained
topology, with any combination of wire types and up to 16 remote transmitters/IP
cameras
• Transparently supports all networking protocols (UDP, TCP/IP, HTTP, Multicast, etc.)
using advanced 128-bit AES encryption
• 10/100/1000 uplink Ethernet connectivity
• Easy configuration, no PC required
• 56 VDC is distributed over the Tbus to all connected equipment. PoE, PoE+, or High
Power PoE cameras (or other PoE devices), up to 50 Watts* are supported
• Built-in transient protection; Industrial temperature range
The NVT Model NV-ER1804 TBus Ethernet over Coax/UTP Receiver is a compact busarchitected receiver hub that has four TBus ports, each capable of supporting multiple
TBus transmitters and their subsequent 10/100 BaseT Ethernet and PoE+ powered
devices.
The TBus transmission medium can be coax, 2-Wire/UTP, or Shielded twisted-Pair. Data
rates up to 200 Mbps are achievable, making these devices the ideal choice in new or legacy installations where existing cable is re-deployed as part of an upgrade to IP cameras. 56
VDC is provided by a local power supply. These transmitters are extremely simple to use,
with no IP or MAC addressing required. Status LEDs indicate power and link
connectivity/quality/activity for RJ45 and Tbus ports.
The NV-ER1804 is backed by NVT’s award winning customer support, limited lifetime
warranty, and advance replacement.
*Distance and number of devices supported may lower due to limited power supply capacity and wire voltage-drop, or data-rate
limiting due to the selected wire’s high-frequency signal attenuation. See manual or IP Distance Calculator at nvt.com.

Power is usually supplied from the TBus Receiver. For optional
supplemental local power, an additional Class 2 power supply may be
purchased. These supplies are external inline, with an IEC380-C14
power inlet and 6ft (1.8m) line-cord. Input voltage is 100 ~240VAC
50-60Hz. A molded P1J 5.5mm barrel connector provides Class 2
(SELV) regul ated output with one of these three ratings:
One TBus system may not have more than two
power supplies (including those within a
Receiver Hub). Use only the power cord
