This may also expose the corporate network as this is often bridged to the surveillance network. LINKLOCK prevents such attacks by completely disconnecting power and data for that channel whenever it detects a cable disconnection or reconnection or even any tampering such as \"tapping in\" to the coax or network cables. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow Does LINKLOCK Work ? \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eLINKLOCK works by constantly monitoring the POE power connection and data transmissions. It can detect even subtle changes or interruptions in the data transmission characteristics which will trigger disconnection and alarm, whilst remaining extremely robust against false alarms. Once triggered and disconnected, the channel can be re-established via the reset pins after suitable action is taken to determine the cause of the alarm (i.e. a possible attacker). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHIGHWIRE Powerstar Base LINKLOCK Option \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eLINKLOCK™ is available as an option on Veracity's HIGHWIRE Powerstar Base 4 and Base 8 models of Ethernet and POE over coax adaptors. The Base unit accepts external power via a POE switch or a DC power supply. It sends power over the coax link to the Camera unit. The camera unit in turn provides POE (Power-overEthernet) to the IP camera. See HIGHWIRE Powerstar Base 4 or Base 8 datasheets for full information on HIGHWIRE. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLINKLOCK provides \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eprotection to both the coaxial cable and the Ethernet cable connecting the IP camera to the HIGHWIRE Camera unit (sections A and B in the diagram opposite). LINKLOCK disconnection (blocking mode) is triggered when: The coaxial cable A is disconnected The Ethernet cable B is disconnected The coaxial cable A is disrupted The Ethernet cable B is disrupted Note that having a secure or encrypted link over the coax alone does not prevent intrusion as the Ethernet link to the camera would still be open and unsecured without LINKLOCK. \u003cbr\u003eWhen blocking mode is enabled, all external equipment is immediately isolated from the internal LAN. The internally-located HIGHWIRE Powerstar Base 4 or 8 unit will : Remove POE Power from the coaxial cable (this disconnects and switches off the HIGHWIRE Camera unit and IP camera). Completely disable its coaxial network interface for the triggered channel only. Close the alarm relay contact and indicate the alarm channel with a red LED. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003eTamper-proof Ethernet and POE over coax\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003e8 tamper-proof channels per Base unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003eTampering or interference with cabling shuts down channel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003eRelay contact alarm output on tamper, with reset pins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003e32 POE or POE Plus channels in 1U with four Base units\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003eAutomatic configuration for simple installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003eFull duplex 100Base-TX performance on each coax\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProduct Type: Network Extender\n\u003cbr\u003eEnvironmentally Friendly: Yes\n\u003cbr\u003eEnvironmental Certification: REACH\n\u003cbr\u003eCertifications \u0026amp; Standards: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eFCC \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCE\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eBrand Name: Veracity\n\u003cbr\u003eLength: 6.8\"\n\u003cbr\u003eManufacturer: Veracity USA, Inc\n\u003cbr\u003eProduct Name: HIGHWIRE Powerstar Base 4 LINKLOCK - Four Channel Unit With LINKLOCK\n\u003cbr\u003eProduct Line: HIGHWIRE Powerstar\n\u003cbr\u003eManufacturer Part Number: VHW-HWPS-B4-LL\n\u003cbr\u003eManufacturer Website Address: http:\/\/www.veracityusa.com\n\u003cbr\u003eAdditional Information: \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eConnector : RJ45 With Optional SFP Socket , 4 x BNC Coax With PoE, DC in\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWeight: 572g   \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUnit Power: 20 Watt\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eTaa Compliant: Yes","brand":"Veracity USA, Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39930659831883,"sku":"VHW-HWPS-B4-LL","price":1165.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1824\/0789\/files\/Veracity-HIGHWIRE-Powerstar-Base-4-LINKLOCK-Four-Channel-Unit-With-LINKLOCK-VHW-HWPS-B4-LL.jpg?v=1748223062","url":"https:\/\/www.tecisoft.ca\/products\/highwire-powerstar-base4-linklock","provider":"TeciSoft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
