Ethernet and PoE (Power over Ethernet) connections are typically limited to a maximum cable length of 100 meters between network devices. To overcome this limitation, network installers can use a PoE Extender in-line with Cat-5e or Cat-6 cabling. A 10/100/1000Mbps PoE Extender allows powered devices (PDs)-such as IP security cameras and wireless access points-to be installed beyond the standard 100-meter distance.By adding one PoE Extender for every additional 100 meters of cable, Ethernet and PoE signals can be extended up to 200 meters or more, depending on the power requirements of the PD and the available power from the source device.The PoE Extender requires no external power supply. It draws power directly from a PoE switch or mid-span injector, streamlining installation. The extender features two 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet ports that automatically configure for link speed, duplex mode, and crossover, ensuring full-rate network throughput.It supports PoE input via standard 12/36 or 45/78 pinouts and complies with IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at standards. The PoE output delivers up to 25W of power (when used with an IEEE 802.3at-compliant PoE switch), supporting 1 Gigabit Ethernet at the terminal end.
