POE Extender

Power over Ethernet has a range of 100 meters from a network switch. Should PoE be needed at distances greater than 100 meters, solutions might include electrical rewiring for AC power at remote locations or moving network communication closets, both require extensive labor and are costly and time consuming.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS TO USING POE Power over Ethernet is best suited to users who want to expand and extend the capabilities of their existing network switches. PoE uses standard Category 5 or 6 cables and uses them to transfer both data and power to remote locations. Since extensive wiring is not needed, these remote locations are able to be easily changed. PoE power standards are also universal. Unlike traditional power supplies which are only compatible with specific standards to their region, PoE is able to self regulate to work with a variety of international power standards. PoE also offers more flexibility in power events, such as a surge or brownout.

WHY AM I LIMITED TO 100 METERS?

Power can be transmitted over an Ethernet cable to distances that exceed 100 meters depending on the amount of power being put out by the Midspan and the cable loss across the distance. If the port powering the Ethernet puts out 15.4W (IEEE802.3af standard) of power and the distance is 100 meters, then the power could dissipate to 12.95W in the worst case scenario by the time it reaches the end device. PoE is possible over distances greater than 100 meters but is not guaranteed or recommended as the IEEE specification guarantees only 100 meters for data transmission. 


CAN I CONNECT MULTIPLE POE EXTENDERS TO EXTEND MY REACH BEYOND 200 METERS?

Yes, it is possible to add more than one POE1XT to extend the span of the cables to 300 meters or more.
