Operation Manual
Introduction
The VR148UTP Network Extender is designed to greatly extend the distances to which IP cameras and other network
devices can operate. The VR148UTP Network Extender consists of two units, a transmitter and a receiver. Only the
transmitter provides PoE to the connected network device. The receiver is installed at the NVR/IP equipment side and
the transmitter at the IP camera side of the installation.
Note: A sticker on the bottom of each unit identifies whether it is the transmitter or the receiver.

VR148UTP Network Extender Installation Drawing
Install Network to VR148UTP and IP Cameras
Refer to the above diagram when installing. Use best industry practices and follow all local building codes.
1) Connect an earth ground to each unit before making any additional connections.
2) Connect a network cable from the security room or IP network equipment to the receiver.
3) Connect a twisted pair cable between the transmitter and the receiver. Use center terminals of the RJ11connector.
4) Connect a network cable from the transmitter’s Ethernet jack to the IP camera or other network device.
5) Connect a Class 2 power transformer to the push in power connector of each VR148UTP unit. The units
require 24VAC @ 1 Amp. There is no polarity to these terminals.
Normal Operation
When power is applied to both units the Network LED’s will come on and the link status LED will blink for about 30
seconds as the link is being optimized. When the link is stable the link status LED will remain “ON”. The data LED will
blink with network activity.
! The separate protective earthing terminal provided on this product shall be permanently connected to earth.

Troubleshooting
After completing installation, if the units are not operating properly, check each step at each unit in order.
1) If the Power LED is off verify the unit’s power connections and verify that the power source is on an active cir-
cuit.
2) If the link status LED does not stop blinking, verify that the coax cable has been properly installed and make
sure receiver unit’s link Type LED is “ON” and that Transmitter unit’s link Type LED is “OFF”.
3) If the Activity LED is “OFF” verify you have power to the camera and good connections to the RJ45 connectors.
4) If the activity LED is “ON” and the link status LED is “ON” and there is no picture, verify camera IP address and
monitoring IP address are proper and refresh the monitor. Directly attach the camera through a short patch cable
directly to NVR/IP network. Verify that camera and monitor program are properly functioning.
