Setting up a CCTV system in a remote location, so you can view cows which are cavling for example, couldn’t be easier. When a barn is located a few kilometres away, and CCTV is required, setting up a wireless bridge is a simple solution which will save you time and money if it is a site that requires checks regularly.
Using a pair of our wireless access points to create a wireless bridge is as simple as the flick of a switch to pair the two devices, once the CCTV cameras are in place at the remote location and the recording unit is set up locally in your home or business.
This is just one example of where as wireless bridge can be utilized to save time and money for somewhere that may need constant attention or regular attention to make sure there are no problems on site.

Setup of a basic wireless bridge for a CCTV system
You need two NanoBeams You need a laptop/computer with an ethernet port (to connect the LAN cable) You need two patch cables (one goes from NanoBeam to PoE injector port labled “PoE” and the other goes from PoE injector port labled “LAN” to computer)
We assume the IP address of the device that connects to the internet to be “192.168.0.1” with a subnet mask of “255.255.255.0”. This device is normally provided by your internet service provider. It is called a router or modem and is a “gateway”.
Place both NanoBeams beside laptop/computer.
SETTING UP DEVICE A
Connect first NanoBeam (A) to the computers ethernet port with a patch cable from it’s PoE injector device port labled “LAN”
Change the IP address of the computers ethernet port to “192.168.1.1” and subnetmask “255.255.255.0” open a web browser and go to “http://192.168.1.20” Enter as follows: username: admin password: ubnt and press enter
Click on the “wireless” tab and the following for each; Wireless Mode: Access Point WDS: no enable SSID: A (This can be whatever you like eg: Videplus Access Point) Channel width: 20 Mhz Channel Shifting: Disable Frequency, MHz: auto Frequency List, MHz: no enable Auto Adjust EIRP Limit: enable Security: WPA-AES WPA Authentication: PSK WPA Preshared Key: 123456789
Click “change” at the bottom right and then “apply” at the top.
Wait a few seconds for device to reboot. You may have to log back in with the username:ubnt password:ubnt
Next click on “Network” tab and enter for each: Network Mode: Bridge Disable Network: None Managment Interface: BRIDGE0 Managment IP Address: Static IP address: 192.168.0.100 Netmask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.0.1 Primary DNS IP: 8.8.4.4 Secondary DNS IP:
Click “change” bottom right and then “apply” at the top.
Wait 30 seconds or so for device to reboot. Now unplug the patch cable from the PoE injector devices port labled “LAN”. Check that the lights on the radio/device (A) are still on and that the device is powered.
SETTING UP DEVICE B
Connect second NanoBeam (B) to the computers ethernet port with the patch cable from the SECOND PoE injector device port labled “LAN” open your web browser and go to “http://192.168.1.20” enter username: ubnt and password: ubnt and press enter
Click on “wireless” tab and enter for each: Wireless Mode: Station SSID: click on “Select” and wait for device “B” to scan for device “A” which has SSID name “A” as configured in above step. In pop-up windows select the device “A” and then select “Lock to AP” Channel Width: 20 MHz Channel Shifting: Disable Frequency, MHz: auto Frequency List, MHz: no enable Auto Adjust EIRP Limit: enable Security: WPA-AES WPA Authentication: PSK WPA Preshared Key: 123456789
Click “change” bottom right and then “apply” at the top. Wait a few seconds for device to reboot. Again you may have to log back in with username:ubnt and password:ubnt
Next click on “Network” tab and enter for each: Network Mode: Bridge Disable Network: None Managment Interface: BRIDGE0 Managment IP Address: Static IP address: 192.168.0.101 Netmask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.0.1 Primary DNS IP: 8.8.4.4 Secondary DNS IP:
Click “change” bottom right and then “apply” at the top. Wait a few seconds for device to reboot.
Both devices/radios are now configured and can be moved to permanent location. The ethernet port of the computer can now be changed back to IP address “192.168.0.2” and subnet mask “255.255.255.0” or DHCP.
People commonly ask how far they can run Power over Ethernet. The answer is 100 meters from the PoE switch or hub to the PoE dependent device, regardless of where the power is injected. The limitation is not the power; it’s the Ethernet cabling standards that limit the total length of cabling to 100 meters.
There are however some devices that will allow PoE to be provided to a device over the 100m limitation.
The UNV range of NVR units can provide PoE up to 300m when Extended Transmission is enabled. To enable Extended Transmission, open up the Main Menu, click Camera, select the camera you wish to enable Extended Transmission with, click Configure and finally Tick the Extended Transmission box and save.
Finally Videplus’ VP-EO2C-POE Single Port PoE Ethernet Extender is a high-speed Ethernet transmission device. It can transmit Ethernet and Power signals together for PoE devices. It transmits data network signals up to 1000 metres over any pair of copper conductors, such as CAT5e, CAT6, coaxial cable.
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that lets network cables, such as CAT5e or CAT6, carry electrical power.
For example, a security camera would normally require two connections to be made when it is installed:
A network connection, in order to be able to communicate with a DVR and any display equipment.
A power connection, to provide electrical power the camera needs to operate.
However, if the camera is PoE-enabled, only the network connection needs to be made, as it will receive its electrical power from this cable as well.
Specifying Power over Ethernet brings many advantages to an installation:
Time and cost savings – by reducing the time and expense of having electrical power cabling installed. Network cables do not require a qualified electrician to fit them, and can be located anywhere.
Flexibility – without being tethered to an electrical outlet, devices such as IP cameras and wireless access points can be located wherever they are needed most, and re-positioned easily if required.
Safety – PoE delivery is intelligent, and designed to protect network equipment from overload, under powering, or incorrect installation.
Reliability – PoE power comes from a central and universally compatible source, rather than a collection of distributed wall adapters. It can be backed-up by an uninterruptible power supply, or controlled to easily disable or reset devices.
Scalability – having power available on the network means that installation and distribution of network connections is fast, simple and effective.
PoE has many applications such as:
VoIP phones – the original PoE application. Using PoE means phones have a single connection to a wall socket, and can be remotely powered down, just like with older analogue systems.
IP cameras – PoE is now found throughout networked CCTV surveillance camera systems, where it enables fast deployment and easy re-positioning.
Wireless – Wifi & Bluetooth Access Points and RFID readers are commonly PoE compatible, to allow remote location away from AC outlets, and relocation following site surveys.
How to upgrade to PoE
Adding PoE to your network is straightforward, and there are two routes you can choose:
A PoE switch is a network switch that has Power over Ethernet injection built-in. Simply connect other network devices to the switch as normal, and the switch will detect whether they are PoE-compatible and enable power automatically.
PoE switches are available to suit all applications, from low-cost unmanaged switches with a few ports, up to complex multi-port rack-mounted units with sophisticated management.
A midspan (or PoE injector) is used to add PoE capability to regular non-PoE network links. Midspans can be used to upgrade existing LAN installations to PoE, and provide a versatile solution where fewer PoE ports are required. Upgrading each network connection to PoE is as simple as patching it through the midspan, and as with PoE switches, power injection is controlled and automatic. Midspans are available as multi-port rack-mounted units or low-cost single-port PoE injectors.
