A simple way of connecting IP cameras and devices to your Power over Ethernet (PoE) network is with the CopperLink Model 2110/PSE/EUI injector and extender from Patton Electronics. This convenient dual-purpose device doubles the maximum distance of a Power over Ethernet (PoE) run from 328 feet (100 meters) to 656 feet (200 meters). Up to four 2110/PSU/EUI extenders may be daisy-chained to extend the distance to a maximum of 1,640 ft (500 meters). The 2110/PSE/EUI also serves as a PoE injector by connecting and powering PoE end devices compliant to the IEEE802.3af specifications (Class 3/0, 15 watts). It accepts a standard Fast Ethernet (10/100TX) RJ45 line and outputs data and power over a PoE port. In this way, an injector eliminates the need for a separate power cable. Network traffic passes through without interruption, latency, or degradation to the network connection, ensuring 100 Mbps full-duplex speed.
The 2110/PSE/EUI is an affordable way to connect distance Powered Devices (PD) because it eliminates additional switches, wireless access points, and expensive fiber installations. It is compatible with any standard Fast Ethernet line and is entirely transparent to the PoE protocol. It’s perfect for extending the reach of wireless access points, IP cameras, digital signs, and VoIP phones.
