4. Opsætning og installation

The VHW-HW01 operates in pairs, with one unit at each end of the coaxial cable run. Ensure you have two units for a complete link (this product listing is for a single unit).

  1. Identificér forbindelsespunkter: Determine the location for each VHW-HW01 unit. One unit will connect to your network device (e.g., router, switch, NVR) and the other to the remote Ethernet device (e.g., IP camera, PC).
  2. Tilslut koaksialkabel: Connect a standard coaxial cable (e.g., RG59, RG6, RG11) to the BNC connector on the VHW-HW01 unit. Ensure the connection is secure.
  3. Tilslut Ethernet-kabel: Connect a standard RJ45 Ethernet cable from your network device to the Ethernet port on the VHW-HW01 unit.
  4. Anvend strøm: Connect the appropriate 12V DC or 24V AC power adapter (if not already integrated) to the power input terminals on the VHW-HW01. Observe the polarity for DC power.
  5. Verify Link Status: Once power is applied to both units and the coaxial cable is connected, observe the LED indicators on the device. A solid link light indicates a successful coaxial connection, and Ethernet activity lights will show data flow.

5. Betjening

The Veracity VHW-HW01 is a transparent Ethernet extender. Once properly installed and powered, it operates automatically without requiring any user configuration. Data packets are seamlessly transmitted over the coaxial cable, appearing as a direct Ethernet connection to connected devices.

  • Tænd: Ensure both VHW-HW01 units are powered on.
  • Link Establishment: The devices will automatically establish a high-speed Ethernet link over the coaxial cable. This is indicated by the link status LEDs.
  • Dataoverførsel: Network traffic from the connected Ethernet devices will flow through the VHW-HW01 units over the coaxial cable.

6. Vedligeholdelse

The Veracity VHW-HW01 is designed for maintenance-free operation. However, following these guidelines can help ensure its longevity and reliable performance:

  • Rensning: Hold enheden ren og fri for støv. Brug en blød, tør klud til rengøring. Brug ikke flydende rengøringsmidler eller aerosoler.
  • Miljø: Operate the device within its specified environmental conditions (temperature, humidity). Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, or excessive moisture.
  • Kabelforbindelser: Periodically check all cable connections (coaxial, Ethernet, power) to ensure they are secure and free from damage.
  • Ventilation: Ensure adequate airflow around the device to prevent overheating, although passive cooling is typically sufficient for this low-power device.

7. Fejlfinding

If you encounter issues with your VHW-HW01 device, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

ProblemMulig årsagLøsning
No power indicator light.No power supply, incorrect power adapter, or faulty power connection.
  • Ensure the power adapter is correctly connected to the device and a live power outlet.
  • Verify the power adapter output matches the device's requirements (12V DC or 24V AC).
  • Check power cable for damage.
Coaxial link light is off or blinking.No coaxial connection, faulty coaxial cable, or only one unit powered.
  • Ensure both VHW-HW01 units are powered on.
  • Check that the coaxial cable is securely connected to both units.
  • Inspect the coaxial cable for damage or breaks.
  • Ensure the coaxial cable length is within the supported range.
Ethernet activity light is off.No Ethernet connection, faulty Ethernet cable, or connected device is off.
  • Verify the Ethernet cable is securely connected to the VHW-HW01 and the network device.
  • Ensure the connected network device (e.g., PC, NVR) is powered on and functioning correctly.
  • Prøv et andet Ethernet-kabel.
Langsom netværkshastighed.Poor coaxial cable quality, excessive cable length, or network congestion.
  • Use high-quality coaxial cable (e.g., RG6 or RG11 for longer runs).
  • Reduce the length of the coaxial cable if possible.
  • Ensure there are no excessive splices or damaged sections in the coaxial cable.
