Extend and distribute Ethernet and PoE
OUTREACH QUAD and OUTREACH QUAD LITE let you extend and expand
your Ethernet network, with the flexibility and reliability of Power over
Ethernet (PoE) power.
OUTREACH QUAD (ORQ) is a five-port Ethernet switch that can forward
PoE to up to four IP cameras or similar devices. This is shown in the
diagram below:
Installing OUTREACH QUAD doubles the range of the network, and allows
extra PoE devices to be installed rapidly, with no local AC power required.
OUTREACH QUAD LITE (ORQ-LITE) is a five-port Ethernet switch that is
powered by PoE. It provides four remote non-PoE Ethernet ports from a
single PoE-enabled Ethernet connection.

the number of PoE devices that can be enabled at the same time, in order
to prevent any overload or undervoltage conditions in operation.
OUTREACH QUAD has a maximum
power budget
available, which it
allocates according to the
power class
of any PoE devices connected. This
is the power
requested
by each device, which may be higher than the
power it actually requires for operation.
You can use the tables below to plan your installation. Key:
Class 1 or 2 PoE device (up to 7 watts)
Class 3 device (up to 15 watts)
The first table lists how many PoE devices can be connected to OUTREACH
QUAD, according to which type of PoE power source is used:
PoE Source
Budget
Number of PoE devices supported
PoE
7 watts
OUTSOURCE
15 watts
or
PoE Plus
22 watts
or
OUTSOURCE PLUS
30 watts
or
or
For even longer-reach applications, a single OUTREACH PLUS may be used
to extend the connection between the PoE source and OUTREACH QUAD.
This reduces the number of devices that can be connected, however:

Notes:
1. Some PoE devices are Class 0 (unclassified). OUTREACH QUAD treats these as
Class 2 devices, to avoid budget limit issues in common applications.
2. OUTREACH may be used to extend network connections from OUTREACH
QUAD's PoE Out ports, but only if OUTSOURCE PLUS is used as the PoE source.
OUTREACH is treated as a Class 3 device
3. All network ports can be always be used as regular (non-PoE) Ethernet
connections, regardless of PoE budget availability
4. Operating OUTREACH QUAD with an exceeded budget is not recommended,
as different combinations of devices may be enabled following a reset
