Twisted Pair to Coax Media Converter

J/E-CX-TBT-02

The Twisted Pair to Coax Media Converter is a device that helps connect different types of networking equipment together. It allows you to upgrade your network without having to replace all of your existing equipment. It has one connector for twisted pair cable (RJ-45) and one connector for coaxial cable (BNC). This means you can connect one end of a twisted pair cable to the RJ-45 connector and the other end to a device that uses a BNC connector (like a hub or switch). It supports connecting up to 24 devices in a chain, and it comes with a BNC T-connector that allows you to connect one end of a coaxial cable to one device and the other end to another device, making it easy to extend your network.

Description

Twisted Pair to Coax Media Converter
J/E-CX-TBT-02

This Twisted Pair to Coax Media Converter is a device that allows you to connect different types of networking equipment together. Specifically, it converts the twisted pair cable that is commonly used in Ethernet networks to a coaxial cable, which is used in older, 10BASE2 networks. This allows you to upgrade your network without having to replace all of your existing equipment.

The media converter has one RJ-45 twisted pair connector and one BNC 10BASE2 compliant port. This means that you can connect one end of a twisted pair cable to the RJ-45 connector and the other end to a device that uses a BNC connector, such as a hub or switch.

The media converter also supports up to 24 devices that can be daisy-chained together on a single coaxial segment for each twisted pair segment. This means that you can connect multiple devices together in a chain, with each device connected to the next one in the chain.

The MDI/MDI-X selection switch allows the converter to be connected to either a workstation or network interface card (NIC) on one end, and a hub, switch, or router on the other end, without having to change the type of cable. This makes it easy to connect different types of equipment together.

A BNC T-connector is included with the converter for daisy-chaining multiple devices together. This connector allows you to connect one end of a coaxial cable to one device and the other end to another device, allowing you to easily extend your network.

Key Features and Benefits:

  • Supports up to 24 devices daisy chained on one coax segment per twisted pair segment.
  • MDI/MDI-X switch allows converter to be connected to either:
    • a workstation NIC or hub, or
    • switches and routers

    without changing the cable type.

  • BNC T-connector included for daisy chain applications.
  • Note: Not rack-mountable
