The Smart Choice for Transmission Solutions

The MaxiiCopper Model Vi2304A, Vi2308A and Vi2316A hubs are revolu-
tionary data transmission devices that extend full-duplex High-Speed
Ethernet over existing or new UTP infrastructures. They extend 10BaseT
signals up to 3,000 ft. (909M), 100BaseT up to 2,100 ft. (640m) for 802.3 af
and 800 ft. (242m) for 802.3 at. They employ MaxiiCopper, an innovative
and unique Ethernet extension technology, that is designed to take full
advantage of high-bandwidth UTP cables and maintain a full-duplex 10 or
100 Mb/s Ethernet connection up to the maximum range - with minimum
transmission error and latency. Multiple remote network devices such as
Mega-pixel IP cameras or VoIP can be connected to a central LAN switching
fabric with ease. Their dual-rate capability provides an easy way to balance
the best possible network throughput and long-reach distance design. The
Vi2304A, Vi2308A and Vi2316A support 4, 8 and 16 ports. 1 pair can be
used for both 10BaseT and 100BaseT signals. 4 Pair is restricted to
100BaseT use.
These hubs need to be deployed along with Vi2301A on the remote end of
each UTP cable. They are equipped with LEDs to provide link status and
configured data rate for each port. They are completely transparent to the
corporate IP network and higher layer protocols and require no IP program-
ming or other configurations.
The Vi2308A and Vi2316A are offered in 19 inch 1U height enclosure for
rack-mount or wall-mount applications. They are ideal for medium to large
scale IT networking or digital CCTV projects. The UTP cable needs to be
point to point without any branches.
Ethernet Extenders
Important Safety Warning
Ethernet Switch/NVR-end Installation
- Connect the chassis ground screw to a solid earth ground.
- Connect the RJ45 connector of the Ethernet switch to the 10/100BaseT
Ethernet port of Vi2304A/Vi2308A/Vi2316A using a standard Cat5/6 cable
of maximum 100 m in length.
- Connect long UTP cables to the RJ45 connectors of the extender hub.
- Connect the 12V power supply to the power connector of the extender hub.
The link LED on the 10/100 Ethernet connectors should be “ON” to indicate
proper connection between the switch and Ethernet ports of
Vi2304A/Vi2308A/Vi2316A. While the Link LED, Orange for 100BaseT and
Green for 10BaseT, on the extended side, in a steady state will indicate
confirmed connection between extenders.
- Read and keep these instructions.
- Heed all warnings.
- Follow all instructions.
- Do not use this apparatus near water.
- Clean only with a dry cloth.
- Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
- This installation should be made by a qualified service person and should conform to all local
codes.
- DO NOT bundle UTP or UTP signals in the same conduit as high-voltage wiring.
- To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose these products to rain, moisture,
dripping or splashing.
- No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on Vigitron equipment.
- DO NOT install the unit in a place where the operating ambient temperature exceeds 75°C.
- Make sure that the external power supply output voltage is in the recommended range.
- Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other
apparatus (including DVRs and NVRs) that produce heat.
- Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at power source,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
- Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
- Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
- Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus
has been damaged in any way, such as when a power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid
has been spilled, objects have fallen inside the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to
rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
- The main plug is used as the disconnect device and shall remain readily operable.
WARNING! - To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose
this apparatus to rain or moisture. This apparatus shall not be exposed to
dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases shall
be placed on the apparatus.
WARNING! - This apparatus is a Class I product. This product must
be connected to a mains socket outlet thru an AC to DC Power supply.
WARNING! - The mains plug is used as the disconnect device and
shall remain readily operable.

- If you like to power the unit using a local power supply connect the 12VDC
power supply to the power connector of the Vi2301A. A power adapter
connector is provided to simplify connection.
- If no power supply is plugged in the unit will use PoE. When using PoE the
camera has to be powered by PoE also.
- Connect the IP camera RJ45 connector to the “10/100BaseT Ethernet” port
of Vi2301A using a standard Cat5/6 cable of maximum 100 m in length.
- Connect one end of the long UTP cable to the “Extended Ethernet” RJ45
connector of Vi2301A.
The link LED on the 10/100 connector should be “ON” to indicate proper
connection between the camera and Vi2301A.
