EtherStretch from Nitek can quickly turn any ordinary telecommunications cable (coax or UTP) into a high-speed network communication and PoE path. When operating over coaxial cable (RG59), distances of up to 500 meters (1,640 feet) can be achieved. The UTP version uses a four-pair UTP cable to communicate up to 600 meters. The EtherStretch system consists of a transmitter and a receiver set, which requires very little installation time and absolutely no set up or configuration. The transmitter and receiver are transparent to the network and have no IP or MAC addressing. Simply connect your network devices to the network ports of the transmitter and receiver along with existing cabling and the system begins communicating.
