jmars 0 Posted May 22, 2010 I have existing RG59 with 18/2 for power runs all over my house, I'm looking for a way to install IP HD Cameras over the existing RG59. So far I've found the following solutions: http://www.surveillance-video.com/iprg59.html and http://www.veracityglobal.com/products/ethernet-over-coax.aspx Does anyone have any experience with either of these solutions?

Soundy 1 Posted May 22, 2010 I've used the Veracity HighWires extensively, and quite frankly, they work GREAT. Since they can be powered with 12VDC or 24VAC, it's a snap to just split the existing power feed at the camera; then all you need to do is make sure the camera itself supports the existing power. No configuration needed, just slap one on each end of the coax, plug'em into the switch and camera, and you're good to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmars 0 Posted May 23, 2010 I found some more info on the Speco converters: http://www.specotech.com/cart/products/productDetails.asp?prodID=1006 Although they do not support running power, which I wont need since i have 18/2 already at each drop, they only support 10BaseT "Exceeds 802.3 10BaseT NEXT specification, isolating the receiver from the transmission signal" Do IP cameras need the extra bandwidth with 100BaseT, or is 10BaseT sufficient?
