Many organizations still operate analog CCTV systems that rely on video baluns to transmit video signals over existing 2-core copper wiring. While these systems have been dependable for years, the need for high-definition IP video, remote monitoring, and intelligent analytics is pushing a move to IP CCTV.
Unfortunately, many fall into the costly trap of thinking IP migration means removing all the old cabling and installing new Ethernet lines — resulting in:
● High installation costs from pulling new cables through conduits or shafts
● Extended project timelines with major operational disruptions
● Unnecessary waste from discarding perfectly good copper wires
Instead of replacing the entire cabling system, PoE over 2-wire Extender technology allows you to reuse the same 2-core copper wiring that your analog CCTV system uses today.
How It Works:
● Remove the old video balun at both ends
● Connect a PoE over 2-wire Extender set (transmitter and receiver)
● Instantly deliver IP network + PoE power over the existing 2-core cable — up to 500 meters without repeaters
This simple upgrade transforms your old analog cabling into a high-speed, PoE-ready IP link for modern network cameras.
Reusing the existing 2-core cables can cut project costs by up to 50%, eliminating expensive rewiring.
Upgrades can be completed within hours, not weeks, thanks to plug-and-play installation.
No drilling, no conduit work, and no downtime — ideal for active facilities, schools, hospitals, and offices.
Reusing existing copper wiring reduces e-waste and environmental impact.
A commercial site had 60 analog cameras connected via 2-core copper cables using video baluns. The team needed to migrate to IP CCTV but faced budget and time constraints.
By installing PoE over 2-wire Extenders:
● All cameras were upgraded to IP without adding new cabling
● Stable PoE and network connectivity was delivered up to 450 meters
● Project costs dropped by 45% compared to traditional rewiring
● Installation was completed in just two days with zero downtime
If your analog CCTV system uses video baluns over 2-core wiring, you already have the perfect infrastructure for an IP upgrade. Don’t waste time and money replacing it — leverage PoE over 2-wire Extenders to achieve faster, cheaper, and cleaner IP migration.
Upgrade smarter, not harder.
Deliver PoE + IP over your existing 2-core cables and bring your CCTV system into the digital era.
