Veracity is set to launch HIGHWIRE POWERSTAR Ethernet and PoE over Coax device plus its new ruggedised OUTREACH MAX XT Ethernet and PoE extender designed for outdoor use at IFSEC 2011 at the NEC, Birmingham.
HIGHWIRE POWERSTAR provides up to 25 watts of power designed to serve even the most power hungry external cameras. The POWERSTAR quadruples the power output of HIGHWIRE PLUS and can deliver data and Power over Ethernet (PoE) over Coax to distances from 300m to 500m depending on the quality on the coaxial cabling used.
The company has worked with installers to ensure HIGHWIRE POWERSTAR, like every Veracity product, works ‘out-of-the-box’. The device features the company’s unique SafeView™ display which shows network activity, PoE status and power levels across the link right up to the camera, taking the guesswork out of powering and installing IP cameras.
The company will also be launching its OUTREACH MAX XT Ethernet and PoE extender, in response to growing customer demand for a device to site external cameras and wireless hotspots without being restricted by the 100m limit from standard Ethernet cables. Using OUTREACH products Ethernet availability can be extended 900m feet and more than 400m for power delivery. With an IP66-rated enclosure and rugged construction, the slim-line OUTREACH MAX XT delivers combined Ethernet and PoE power for externally located IP devices.
The company will also be providing on-stand demonstrations of COLDSTORE, its surveillance storage system. Since its European preview at IFSEC last year, COLDSTORE has made it says in-roads into major installations including several major UK city centre projects and a number of large US customers. COLDSTORE can exploit the latest 3 Terabyte (TB) SATA hard disk drives which have been recently launched by disk manufacturers and with a 15 disk array delivers up to 45 TB of data storage per array.
Alastair McLeod, managing director, Veracity, said: “There is a lot to talk about and demonstrate on the Veracity stand at IFSEC – our range of solutions for transmission and power connectivity keeps on evolving, such as HIGHWIRE POWERSTAR™ and OUTREACH MAX XT. Our products are designed to help installers get on with their jobs and deliver the installation to a customer’s specification – the majority of our products are ‘plug and play’, and we know the installation dilemmas and problems that installers face especially with Ethernet connections and supply power to devices. We look forward to welcoming as many visitors – old friends and new, to our stand.” For more information visit –
