Comnet CopperLine range

Comnet has expanded its ethernet over existing copper media product offering with its CopperLine range.

Multiple-channel ethernet extenders, unmanaged ethernet switches and PoE mid-span power injectors are now available to provide a wide variety of solutions for virtually any network application. These products are designed for applications where existing copper media, such as coaxial cable or twisted pair (UTP) are currently installed and provide a cost-effective alternative to installing new media.

CopperLine consists of 1-, 4-, 8- and 16-channel models that utilise coaxial cable or twisted pair. The higher port count models solve density challenges, allowing up to 16 channels to be supported in a one RU high rackmount chassis.

An unmanaged switch allows four ports of 10/100TX ethernet to be transported extended distances over a single coaxial cable or UTP.
