Comnet CTS24+2EOCPOE 24-Port PoE+ Chassis with Coaxial Interface

Overview

The CTS24+2EOCPOE is a 1 RU rack-mounted chassis designed to consolidate analog camera feeds over Ethernet while delivering PoE+ power to edge devices. It provides 24 ports rated for IEEE 802.3at PoE+ (30W per port) from a built-in 400W power supply — enough headroom to run a full complement of powered devices without stacking external supplies. The BNC coaxial interface means you can integrate existing analog camera infrastructure or use it as a bridge during migrations from coax-based systems to IP surveillance. This is not a camera itself but a managed Layer-2 transport platform that handles video aggregation and power distribution in hybrid or legacy deployments.

Compatibility

The CTS24+2EOCPOE works with any analog surveillance system using standard coaxial cabling and BNC connectors. It also pairs with network video encoders, analog-to-IP converters, and any powered edge device that accepts 802.3at PoE input. The managed switching fabric (IEEE 802.1Q VLAN support, STP/RSTP) integrates into enterprise network stacks alongside Layer-2 Ethernet infrastructure. Uplink uses a Gigabit combo port for connection to core switches or NVR systems. If you have a legacy coax-based camera array and need to extend it over standard Ethernet while powering remote equipment, this chassis bridges that gap without requiring parallel power runs.

Installation Notes

The chassis requires a standard 19-inch rack with 1 RU of vertical space. Operating temperature range is -40°C to +75°C, so it tolerates outdoor enclosures or unheated server rooms. The 400W power supply is integral; no external PSU is needed. Each of the 24 ports auto-negotiates at 10/100 Mbps — ensure your uplink and any managed switches in the same VLAN support the aggregate throughput if all ports are active simultaneously. Management is via web-based GUI or USB CLI; assign static IP or DHCP as your network policy requires. The unit supports up to three 8-channel modules for further port expansion if the initial 24 channels prove insufficient.
