AXIS T8640 PoE+ over Coax Adapter Kit, 5026-401
Description
AXIS T8640 PoE+ over Coax Adapter Kit
The AXIS T8640 PoE+ over Coax Adapter Kit lets you keep the coax cable from an analog system and run an Axis network camera over it. The kit has two units, a base unit at the network end and a device unit at the camera, and carries Ethernet data plus PoE over the coax at up to 500 m (1600 ft) with RG-11. It handles one camera at a time, so you can convert an installation at your own pace without buying a chassis. Local power can be added at the device unit for higher-power cameras.

Range Over Coax
| Network cable | 5 W | 10 W | 15 W | 20 W | 25 W | 60 W (midspan needed) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| RG-59 (22 AWG CCS) | 225 m (750 ft) | 125 m (420 ft) | 100 m (330 ft) | 60 m (200 ft) | N/A | 270 m (900 ft) |
| RG-59 (22 AWG core) | 300 m (1000 ft) | 300 m (1000 ft) | 265 m (800 ft) | 195 m (650 ft) | N/A | 300 m (1000 ft) |
| RG-59 (20 AWG core) | 300 m (1000 ft) | 300 m (1000 ft) | 300 m (1000 ft) | 300 m (1000 ft) | N/A | 300 m (1000 ft) |
| RG-11 (14 AWG core) | 500 m (1600 ft) | 500 m (1600 ft) | 500 m (1600 ft) | 500 m (1600 ft) | N/A | 500 m (1600 ft) |
Maximum range from the camera depending on cable and camera power, with PoE or a PoE+ switch as the source and without the optional AXIS T8003 PS57 power supply. CCS means copper-coated steel and shows worst-case performance if the cable type is unknown. The coax link powers the device unit, but an AXIS 60 W midspan is needed to power a 60 W camera locally. Actual range depends on cable quality, thickness, connectors and the camera.

Frequently Asked Questions About AXIS T8640
What is in the AXIS T8640 kit?
One AXIS T8641 base unit for the network end and one AXIS T8642 device unit for the camera end.
How far can it reach?
Up to 500 m (1600 ft) at full rate on RG-11 coax. The range depends on camera power and cable type; see the range table on this page.
How much power can it deliver to the camera?
The device unit supplies IEEE 802.3af/at PoE to a detected camera up to 25.5 W. With an AXIS 60 W midspan at the network end and local power at the camera, 60 W cameras can be supported.
Can I add local power at the camera?
Yes. The device unit accepts an AXIS T8003 PS57 or a 44-57 V DC Class 2 isolated supply (max 0.7 A), which allows higher-power cameras and longer distances.
Does it support more than one camera?
It is a single-channel kit: one pair serves one camera. Add more kits as you convert more cameras.
Where can I mount the units?
The base unit mounts on a wall, in a rack or on a DIN rail. The AXIS T8640 wall, rack and DIN accessories are listed below.
