The MaxiiCollector Model Vi2804 is a revolutionary four port switch that
extends full-duplex High-Speed Ethernet over extended distance UTP and
Coax infrastructures.
Typical extended distances can be achieved up to 3,000 feet (909 m) over
UTP and up to 5,000 feet (1,524 m) over Coax.are:
The Vi2804 employs MaxiiCopper innovative and unique Ethernet extension
technology that is designed to take full advantage of high-bandwidth
networking cables and maintain a full-duplex 10 or 100 Mb/s Ethernet
connection up to the maximum range with minimum transmission error and
latency. The Vi2804 can connect multiple remote network devices such as
Mega-pixel IP cameras or VoIP to a central LAN switching fabric with ease.
Its dual-rate capability feature provides an easy way to balance the best
possible network throughput and extended-reach distance design.
The Vi2804 is a transceiver device and needs to be deployed in conjunction
with another Ethernet at the other end of extended UTP or Coax cable as
master and slave devices. A dip switch sets the data rate between the
remote and local location. It is equipped with LEDs to provide link status and
configured data rate. No IP setting or configurations are required and it is
completely transparent to the corporate IP network and higher layer
protocols. The UTP or Coax cable needs to be point to point without any
branches.
The four 10/100 Ethernet inputs can be routed from four individual devices,
each with their own IP address. The switching component is
pre-programmed and provides for 802.1p QoS priority queuing, port based
VLAN, MAC address up to 2K, full and half duplex operation compliant to
802.3x, and automatic address learning and aging.
Fixed switch settings provides maximum network security.
Important Safety Warning
-Set S1 (10/100 BaseT) dip switch to the appropriate rate based on the
required maximum data rate and maximum distance.
-Set S2 (Master/Slave) dip switch to “Master” mode.
-Set S3 (1/4 pair) dip switch based on the desired number of pairs.
- Connect the external 12VDC power supply to the power connector of the
Vi2804. An optional power adapter can be provided to simplify installation
If no local power supply is present the Vi2804 will use PoE.
- Connect up to 4 IP camera’s to the standard Ethernet ports of Vi2804
using a standard Cat5/6 patch cables of maximum 330 feet (100 m) in
length. These ports will automatically sense the correct port speed based
on the input signal. The link LED on the 10/100 connector should be “ON”
to indicate proper connection between the camera and Vi2804.
Note: While each standard Ethernet port can operate at either 10 or 100
Mbps, the extended port is 100Mbps max. The recommended total
bandwidth limitation should not exceed 54Mbps and is above the upper
limit for transmitting four cameras.
Extended UTP connection:
-Connect one end of the extended UTP cable to the RJ45 connector of
Vi2804. The link LED on the 10/100 connector should be “ON” to indicate
proper connection between the camera and Vi2804.
Extended Coax connection:
- Connect one end of the extended Coax cable to the Coax connector of
Vi2804. The link LED on the 10/100 connector should be “ON” to indicate
proper connection between the camera and Vi2804.
Ethernet Switch/NVR-end Installation
Ethernet Switch/NVR-end Installation
-Set the Master/Slave dip switch to “Slave” mode.
-Set 10/100 and 1/4 pair dip switches the same as the camera-end setting.
- Read and keep these instructions.
- Heed all warnings.
- Follow all instructions.
- Do not use this apparatus near water.
- Clean only with a dry cloth.
- Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
- This installation should be made by a qualified service person and should conform to all local
codes.
- DO NOT bundle UTP or Coax signals in the same conduit as high-voltage wiring.
- To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose these products to rain, moisture,
dripping or splashing.
- No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on Vigitron equipment.
- DO NOT install the unit in a place where the operating ambient temperature exceeds 75°C or
is below - 40°C.
- Make sure that the external power supply output voltage is in the recommended range.
- Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other
apparatus (including DVRs) that produce heat.
- Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at power source,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
- Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
- Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
- Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus
has been damaged in any way, such as when a power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid
has been spilled, objects have fallen inside the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed
to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
- The main plug is used as the disconnect device and shall remain readily operable.
WARNING! - To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose
this apparatus to rain or moisture. This apparatus shall not be exposed to
dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases shall
be placed on the apparatus.
WARNING! - This apparatus is a Class I product. This product must
be connected to a mains socket outlet thru an AC to DC Power supply.
WARNING! - The mains plug is used as the disconnect device and
shall remain readily operable.
