Important Safety Warning
- If you like to power the unit using a local power supply, connect a 12VDC
power supply to the power connector of the Vi2300A. A power adapter
connector is provided to simplify connection.
- When using PoE, the camera has to be powered by PoE also.
- Connect the IP camera RJ45 connector to the “Standard Ethernet” port
of Vi2300A 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 Vi2300A.
The link LED on the 10/100 connector should be “ON” to indicate proper
connection between the camera and Vi2300A.
Ethernet Switch/NVR-end Installation
- If you like to power the unit using a local power supply, connect a 12VDC
power supply to the power connector of the Vi2301A. A power adapter
connector is provided to simplify connection.
- When using PoE, the camera has to be powered by PoE also.
- Connect the RJ45 connector of the Ethernet switch to the “Standard
Ethernet” port of Vi2301A using a standard Cat5/6 cable of maximum
328 feet (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 Ethernet connector should be “ON” to indicate
proper connection between the switch and Vi2301A. While the Link LED,
Orange for 100BaseT and Green for 10BaseT, in a steady state will indicate
confirmed connection between extenders.

Up to 3,000 ft.
(914 m) UTP
The MaxiiCopper Model Vi2300A Mini is a revolutionary data transmission
device that extends full-duplex high-speed Ethernet over existing UTP
infrastructures. It extends 10BaseT signals up to 3,000 feet (914m) and
100BaseT up to 2,100 feet (640m). It employs MaxiiCopper innovative
and unique Ethernet extension technology that is designed to take full
advantage of high-bandwidth networking cables and maintain a full-duplex
of 10 or 100 Mb/s Ethernet connection up to the maximum range with
minimum transmission error and latency.
The Vi2300A can connect multiple remote network devices, such as
Mega-pixel IP cameras or VoIP to a central LAN switching fabric with ease.
Its dual-rate capability feature provides an easy way to balance the best
possible network throughput and long-reach distance design. The Vi2300A
is a transceiver device that needs to be deployed on the camera side. It can
be used in conjunction with a Vi2301A or Vi25xx Extended Midspan. It is
equipped with LEDs to provide link status and data rate. No IP setting or
configurations are required and it is completely transparent to the corporate
IP network and higher layer protocols. The UTP cable needs to be point to
point without any branches. Multiple segments can be joined together using
UTP couplers.
