PoE Ethernet Extenders

PoE Ethernet Extenders supply up to 30 Watts PoE to attached devices, such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points, while simultaneously transmitting Ethernet data over Coax or any 2-wire 24 AWG twisted pair up to 1.9 Miles (3km). This is an ideal solution for devices that need to receive power and data but are installed in locations beyond the 100 meter reach of copper. While using standard UTP cables that carry Ethernet data, Perle PoE Ethernet Extenders operate as Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) to supply Powered Devices (PDs). Perle has PoE Ethernet Extender models that support the IEEE 802.3af PoE standard (15.4W of power) or the IEEE 802.3at PoE+ standard (30W of power).

At the central site, the Ethernet Extender has full PoE support and can also operate as a Powered Device (PD) supporting end-span and mid-span power sources. Alternatively, the unit can be powered by the included 48v adapter. The PoE Ethernet Extender at the central site then transmits power over the copper wire to the remote PoE Ethernet Extender and attached PD. The remote PoE Ethernet Extenders are classified as a PSE.

Link Error Detection & Recovery

Low-end Ethernet Extenders will always make the end-to-end network connection appear as up and running, even though it may be disconnected. Perle Ethernet Extenders have an on-board microcontroller to continuously monitoring the status of the links. If there is a break or failure in the link, both end devices become aware and react accordingly.

Reliable PoE Ethernet Extenders

Perle Ethernet Extenders only use high-end components from leading chip manufacturers to ensure product reliability. Most Ethernet Extender manufacturers do not publish (or make very difficult to find) their MTBF’s. Perle is proud to publish the high MTBF rates on the Hardware Specs for each product. In addition, we provide the best-in-class Lifetime Warranty.

Industrial Temperature Grade

Many manufacturers only use commercial parts that will fail in environments with extremely high or low temperatures. Integrated PCB circuits will overheat and under-rated connectors will not allow for proper contact between the device and cables. To prevent this, every component used in Perle Industrial Temperature Ethernet Extenders has been designed and tested to handle operating temperatures between -40°C and 75°C.

Advanced Features

Perle PoE Ethernet Extenders are Plug-and-Play with Auto-configuration of VDSL and also contain advanced features like Link Pass-Through, Interlink Fault Feedback, Auto-MDIX, and Loopback.

Technical Support

We have sales and technical support staff around the globe to support you. If you need help choosing the best Ethernet Extender for your application, we provide technical consultations by phone or email. And, even though Perle Ethernet Extenders are Plug-and-Play, post-sales support is easy to contact.
