Ethernet Over Coax Adaptors
• Uses legacy coaxial cable
• Fast Ethernet up to 500m
• Supports all IP devices
• Simple to install
Product description
HIGHWIRE turns any analog video cable
into a high-speed network connection.
This allows the replacement of analog
IP cameras with IP cameras without
installation of any new cabling, which
can save some 30-40% of the system
cost. Universal connections for coax,
network and power, with no user set-up
required, make installation easy and
very fast.
Applications
The main application for HIGHWIRE
is straightforward replacement of
analog cameras for IP cameras
without re-wiring. HIGHWIRE will
handle megapixel cameras and
PTZ IP cameras without problems.
Other applications include VOIP,
long-range networking (500m) with
RG11 cable, lifts and elevators (as
coax bends and coils easily), and
indeed anywhere there is coax !
Ethernet Over Coax Adaptors
• Uses legacy coaxial cable
• Fast Ethernet up to 500m
• Provides POE to IP cameras
• Saves installation time
Product description
HIGHWIRE POE turns existing video
infrastructure into a fast network
connection, and converts legacy
12V-40V DC or 24V AC power into a
universal Power over Ethernet (POE)
supply for IP cameras and mega-pixel
cameras. This saves the time and cost
of replacing old analog cabling, with no
need to install extra power for the new
camera. Instant operation with no
configuration required makes installation
of HIGHWIRE POE simple and fast.
Applications
Use HIGHWIRE with POE out when
installing IP cameras which MUST be
powered by POE or where it is more
convenient to power them this way.
Note that this product is limited to
powering up to Class 2 POE
cameras (i.e. 7 watts or less).

POE Explained POE Class Adaptor
This is a very brief summary of POE
technology. See the back inside cover
of this catalog for references to further
information available on our website.
Power over Ethernet (POE) is a
technology that lets network cables
carry electrical power. For example,
a digital security camera normally
requires two connections to be made
when it is installed:
• A network connection, in order to
be able to communicate with video
recording and display equipment
• A power connection, to deliver the
electrical power the camera needs to
operate
POE Classes Table
There are two standards of POE set out by the IEEE. The first, known as
standard POE, is IEEE 802.3af. This provides for POE power classes up to
15 Watts as illustrated in the table below :
POE Power Class 1 2 3
Source power available 4.0W 7.0W 15.4W
Max. device power 3.84W 6.49W 12.95W
POE provides installation flexibility,
saves time and cost, devices can
be powered from a central, easily
accessible source, and the extension
and distribution of network power
becomes simple and effective.
There are many devices which use
POE power including IP cameras,
VOIP phones, access-control devices,
wireless access points, and many
other specialised equipment which
requires modest power. Even
network switches themselves may
be conveniently powered by POE
(See OUTREACH Quad and
Quad Lite).
• Passive Class 2 adapter
• Corrects POE class signature
• Solves POE power budget issues
• For IP cameras, VOIP phones
Product description
OUTCLASS is a simple passive adapter
which corrects problems that are
frequently found with Power over
Ethernet powered devices. It gives
low-power devices a Class 2 signature
to solve power budgeting issues, and
can be used to modify or upgrade
legacy devices to meet the IEEE
802.3af standard.
Applications
Many POE-enabled IP cameras, VOIP
phones and other devices which use
7 watts or less are either incorrectly
classified or unclassified (Class 0).
(See Page 15 for information on POE
classes). By inserting OUTCLASS
into the network chain just before
the device, it provides a simple way of
converting the device to have a Class
2 signature. It is used when the POE
sources operate correct POE Class
management and have a limited POE
power budget available.
POE Plus equipment has a power class of 4, and allows for power of up to 25
Watts. This is covered by the IEE 802.3at standard.
The differences between power delivered by the source and power received by
the device being powered, accounts for power that is lost as heat in the cable.
If a powered device does not display a Class signature, it is class 0 and must
be allocated the maximum 12.95 watts.

Product description
PINPOINT is a simple, yet extremely
useful installation tool for IP cameras.
Temporarily inserted into the network
connection, PINPOINT passes through
POE from the network to the camera
whilst diverting the network connection
to a local connection for a laptop or
netbook. Thus it allows the accurate
positioning of the camera including
fine-tuning of viewing angle and
especially focus, which is critical for
mega-pixel cameras.
Applications
Veracity’s PINPOINT adapter solves
a common problem. How do you
view the image or configuration page
of an IP camera locally, without
disconnecting it from the network
and losing POE power? By routing
POE to the camera, and diverting it’s
network connection to your laptop or
PDA, PINPOINT lets you get your
camera focused and set-up quickly
and accurately.
Product description
POINTSOURCE is a rechargeable
POE battery pack for in-field use, such as
IP device installation or demonstration.
Incorporating a similar functionality to
PINPOINT, POINTSOURCE provides a
local network port for convenient local
access from a laptop/netbook directly
to the IP device being installed or
demonstrated, but in addition
provides POE power from an internal
rechargeable battery. It provides
sufficient power for 6 to 8 hours of
normal operation, depending upon the
power consumption of the IP device.
Applications
POINTSOURCE is ideal for IP camera
installation work when there is no
site power available, or where POE
switches have yet to be installed
or connected. It allows complete
installation of IP cameras even
before network cables are run!
POINTSOURCE is also extremely
convenient for field-demonstration
and testing of IP cameras and other
POE powered devices. It is especially
useful for site surveys enabling
capture of actual IP camera images
for proposals and reports.

• Cost-eective NTP time-server
• Compact, wall mountable device
• Sync of DVRs, ACS & servers
• GPS position version available
Product description
TIMENET provides a low-cost solution
to the problem of providing accurate
reference time signals for CCTV
recording equipment. TIMENET
integrates a GPS receiver and master
NTP (Network Time Protocol) clock
server into a single highly compact
device which can be directly connected
to the network.
There are two models of TIMENET :
The first provides standard NTP
support for time and date
synchronisation only.
The second also provides GPS position
data for location identification. The
position data must be managed by a
client software application.
Product Codes
VTN-TN TIMENET GPS-Based NTP Time Server (NTP only)
VTN-GPS TIMENET NTP Time Server with GPS positional data output
VOR-OB12 POE Splitter with 12V DC Output
Applications
TIMENET supports all general
NTP applications of synchronising
IT servers, storage arrays, DVR and
NVR systems, access control
servers, building management system
processors, fire-alarm systems, and
indeed any operating system which
supports NTP (such as Linux, Mac OS,
Windows and many others).
TIMENET may be powered via POE

synchronisation of system clocks to ensure that
they are always set at the precisely correct time.”
It is crucial that all recordings are
accurately time-stamped, especially
for evidential purposes. Many DVR
products, especially those which are
PC-based, have inaccurate internal
clocks which drift by many seconds
per week.
The traditional solution to providing an
accurate reference time has been to
use an atomic clock radio receiver or
GPS sensor linked to an expensive
rack-mounted master clock server,
typically with serial-only output.
TIMENET integrates the GPS receiver
and master NTP clock server into a
single device which can be directly
connected to the network.
TIMENET is extremely compact, can
be wall-mounted, uses very little
power and is less than half the cost
of competing solutions.
About UTC Time
Universal co-ordinated time is an official
world-wide atomic clock standard for
time, agreed by national standards
around the world.
About NTP
NTP stands for Network Time
Protocol and is a universal standard
for time synchronisation of
computers or other devices on a
network. TIMENET is NTP-compatible
and acts as a time server for any
NTP-enabled client.
About GPS
GPS is a global satellite system used
primarily for position location, using
very accurate atomic clock references.
GPS signals are far less prone to
interference than traditional national
radio clock signals. Thus TIMENET is a
universal solution which can be used
anywhere in the world.
About Time Zone
UTC is effectively a GMT reference time
and TIMENET provides this via NTP as a
universal reference. It is the task of the
network client (i.e. DVR or other client
device) to look after the local time zone
setting for the country or zone location,
including any local or national variations
to daylight savings time or equivalent.
