PoE Extender

Version 02/11

Item-No. 97 54 20

°

Intended Use

The product is intended to be used to extend the maximum cable length between a PoE switch and
a PoE end device (e.g. PoE network camera) by 100 m. Hence, in theory, a max. cable length of
200 m is possible when using the PoE extender.  Several PoE extenders can be switched one after
another.

The power is supplied by the network cable (PoE).

Always observe the safety instructions and all other information included in these operating
instructions.

This product complies with the applicable National and European requirements. All names of

Connection and Getting Started

• Before connecting the device, attach the rubber feet enclosed to the points intended for this

purpose on the bottom of the device.  Alternatively, you can mount the extender on the wall
(notch on the housing’s underside; corresponding mounting material is not included in the
delivery)

• Connect port 2 of the PoE extender to a network socket on your PoE switch, using a fully wired

network cable (we recommend Cat.5e or better). Alternatively, the device may also be con-
nected to a PoE injector or another PoE extender.  If your PoE switch is turned on, the Link/Act
LED on port 2 and the LED “PoE IN” light up. 

• Now connect port 1 of the extender to the network socket on your PoE end device (e.g. PoE

network camera), also using a fully wired network cable. The LEDs “PoE Out” and Link/Act on
port 1 light up.

• If data transfer is taking place, both Link/Act LEDs will start to flash. 

The maximum cable length from the PoE switch to the extender, and from the exten-
der to the PoE end device, is 100 m respectively.  The patch cables must be fully
wired.  

Normally, PoE provides approx. 15.4 Watts connected load per port, this must not be
exceeded.  Since the voltage for the PoE extender is supplied via the network cable,
only ca. 13 Watts will be available.  Depending on the cable length, the connection
power may also be reduced.

Please observe the operating instructions of the device in question.

Several PoE extenders can be switched one after another. The cable length increas-
es per device by 100 m. The connection power is reduced accordingly.

Please consult the manufacturer’s English instruction manual.

Both ports on the PoE extender have an automatic uplink detection. Therefore, you
can use conventional patch cables for connecting the extender. 

Handling

• Any maintenance or repair work may only be carried out by authorised personnel.

• Check the product for damage before each use!

If you detect any damage, DO NOT connect or use the product!

• It can be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible if:

- the product shows visible signs of damage,

- the product does not function or does not function properly (e.g. a burning smell)

- the product was stored under unfavourable conditions

• When setting up the product, make sure that the cables are neither kinked nor

pinched.

Maintenance and Cleaning

The product does not require any maintenance and should never be disassembled for any reason.

Always remove both network cables prior to cleaning.  You thereby ensure that the product is
disconnected from the power supply.

Dust can easily be removed using a clean, soft brush and a vacuum cleaner.

Do not use aggressive cleaning agents as these can cause discolouration.

Do not press too strongly on the surface, to prevent scratch marks. 

Disposal

Electrical and electronic products do not belong in the household waste!!

Please dispose of the device when it is no longer of use, according to the current
statutory requirements.
