eBridge1PCRX and eBridge1PCTX are CAT5 to Coax cable Ethernet adapters/media converters that deliver data and power over the coax cable in a PoE+ compliant format. The paired set enables fast 10/100 Base-T Ethernet digital communication to be transmitted over Coax cable. eBridge1PCRX receiver sends power over the coax to eBridge1PCTX transmitter under PoE protocol. eBridge1PCTX, in turn, delivers that PoE+ compliant power to a PoE-enabled camera or IP device. eBridge1PCRX will not deliver power to non-compliant devices, thus avoiding accidental power turn into improperly connected analog cameras. These plug and play units facilitate system upgrades from analog to IP cameras/devices utilizing existing legacy Coax and eliminating the costs and labor associated with installing new network cabling. In addition, data transmission over the Coax is possible up to 500m in comparison to 100m Ethernet maximum distance (see Maximum Length of Coax Type vs. Camera Power/PoE Class, pg. 3). A maximum range from headend to the PoE camera/device is 700m taking into consideration that up to 100m of structured cable may be deployed at each end.
The ZT421 comes standard with Ethernet, USB, USB Host, and Bluetooth 4.1 connectivity. For wireless capabilities, we offer an optional dual-band wireless card featuring 802.11ac Wi-Fi with advanced security protocols and Bluetooth 4.1, enabling fast and reliable wireless connections for your warehouse operations.
Yes, the ZT421 RFID model is specifically designed to print and encode RFID labels for enhanced tracking and asset visibility. The ZT421 RFID comes standard with all connectivity options and supports factory or field-installable RFID technology to meet your evolving tracking requirements.
The ZT421 features a side-loading supplies path that makes loading simpler, faster, and more intuitive than previous models. Color-coded media paths guide you on proper threading, while illuminated paths ensure visibility even in poorly lit warehouse environments, reducing setup time and operator error.
The ZT421 is available in multiple print resolutions and two print widths (4-inch and 6-inch models) to address a broad array of applications throughout manufacturing, transportation, logistics, and retail. This flexibility allows you to choose the configuration that best fits your specific labeling needs.
The ZT421 is constructed with an all-metal frame and bi-fold door designed for durability in demanding environments. It features a long-life coating that protects the printhead during direct thermal printing, reducing replacement needs, and includes printhead element out detection to ensure optimal print quality and maximum uptime.
The ZT421 is powered by Zebra's Link-OS operating system and Print DNA suite, which includes remote management tools, deployment utilities, and MDM connectors for seamless integration with device management systems like AirWatch or SOTI MobiControl. This enables centralized management of all your printers from a single location, simplifying configuration and troubleshooting across your entire operation.
