Authorized NVT Phybridge Dealer

NVT Phybridge is the global leader in long-reach Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology, enabling IP cameras, access control readers, intercoms, and other security devices to be powered and connected over distances that far exceed the 328-foot (100-meter) limitation of traditional Ethernet.

About NVT Phybridge

NVT Phybridge technology extends PoE up to 6,000 feet, 18 times farther than conventional PoE switches, using existing coaxial cable, multi-pair UTP, or single-pair telephone wire already installed in a building. The result: major security infrastructure upgrades without costly full-building rewiring projects.

As an authorized NVT Phybridge dealer and licensed electrical contractor, Fortress GT handles the complete assessment, design, and deployment of NVT Phybridge solutions:

Hotel lobby with discreet camera coverage

Large hotels & resorts

High-rise hotels and large resort properties often have extensive analog camera infrastructure. NVT Phybridge enables an upgrade to IP cameras along existing coax cable runs, across parking structures, pool decks, corridors, and remote building locations, without a complete re-cable.

Multi-family residential property entrance

Apartment complexes & condominiums

Multi-family residential buildings with legacy wiring infrastructure can deploy IP cameras and access control devices throughout the property using NVT Phybridge extended PoE, eliminating costly rewiring through tenant spaces.

Secured industrial perimeter with fence line and camera coverage

Large commercial & industrial properties

Warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and large commercial campuses benefit from NVT Phybridge when IP devices need to be deployed at distances exceeding standard PoE limits.

Community entrance with plate recognition camera

HOAs & gated communities

Long cable runs from gatehouse to perimeter cameras or remote access readers often exceed standard PoE limits. NVT Phybridge eliminates the need for intermediate switches or fiber runs in these applications.

NVT Phybridge product families we deploy

NVT Phybridge CLEER24 rack switch with coax ports and an EC10 adapter on top

CLEER: for coaxial cable

The CLEER product family converts existing coaxial cable infrastructure to carry power and data for IP cameras and security devices. Purpose-built for properties upgrading from analog CCTV systems to IP cameras: the existing coax is repurposed, eliminating the need to run new cabling through finished walls and ceilings.

NVT Phybridge FLEX8 switch, front view showing eight RJ45 ports and two uplinks

FLEX: for multi-pair UTP

The FLEX series operates over existing multi-pair UTP (unshielded twisted pair) cabling found in many commercial and residential buildings. Ideal for properties with existing Category 3 or older cabling that would otherwise need replacement for modern IP devices.

Two stacked NVT Phybridge PoLRE rack switches with RJ21 telco connectors

PoLRE: for single-pair UTP

The PoLRE (Power over Long Reach Ethernet) series operates over a single twisted pair, the type found in older telephone wiring infrastructure. Enables IP device deployment in buildings where running new structured cabling is cost-prohibitive.

Frequently asked questions

NVT Phybridge products extend PoE up to 6,000 feet (approximately 1,800 meters) depending on cable type and device power requirements, compared to 328 feet (100 meters) for standard PoE.

NVT Phybridge transmitters connect to standard PoE IP cameras and devices using a standard RJ45 Ethernet port. They are compatible with virtually all major IP camera brands including Axis, Hanwha, Verkada, Hikvision, Dahua, and others.

NVT Phybridge has three product families for different cabling types: CLEER for coaxial cable, FLEX for multi-pair UTP, and PoLRE for single-pair UTP (telephone wire). A site assessment determines which product family is appropriate for your existing infrastructure.

In many applications, yes. NVT Phybridge can substitute for fiber optic cable at distances beyond standard PoE limits, at a significantly lower cost, especially when existing copper infrastructure is already in place.

Yes. NVT Phybridge products are TAA (Trade Agreements Act) and NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act) compliant, making them suitable for government facilities and federally funded projects.
