• 1x Gigabit Power over Ethernet Extender
• 1x Instruction Manual
System Requirements
• RJ45 terminated CAT5 or higher Ethernet cabling (“Solid” UTP cable
recommended)
• 10/100/1000 Mbps compatible Power over Ethernet network and/or
devices (PoE/PoE+)
• PoE devices must comply with IEEE 802.3at or 802.3af standards

LED Indication
PoE IN (Green)
Solid: Indicates that the port is
providing 52-56V (802.3at) / 48V
(802.3af) DC in-line power (PSE is
connected)
Port Function
IN Port (Input)
Connect the PoE IN port from a
802.3at / 802.3af Power Sourcing
Equipment (PSE) device through CAT5
or higher Ethernet cabling:
• PoE injector
• PoE injector hub
• PoE switch
• Another POEEXT1GAT in a daisy
chain conguration
OUT Port (Output)
Connect the PoE OUT port to a 802.3at
/ 802.3af PoE powered device (PD)
through CAT5 or higher Ethernet
cabling:
• PoE camera
• PoE wireless access point
• PoE splitter
• Another POEEXT1GAT in a daisy
chain conguration
Installation
The PoE Extender supports 10Mbps, 100Mbps and 1000Mbps network
speeds and will automatically detect the speed of the incoming
connection.
Before installation, check your network infrastructure. If there are any
IEEE 802.3at / 802.3af devices that require power, the PoE Extender
can provide power and data Ethernet connectivity conveniently, and
easily.
The PoE Extender should be installed between the PSE (Power Source
Equipment) and the PD (Powered Device). It is powered by PSE and
forwards the Ethernet data and remaining PoE power to the PD.
The PoE extender does not require an external power supply and
will inject power to the PDs without aecting data transmission
throughput.
Port Connections
There are two RJ45 ports on the PoE Extender. The “IN” port functions
as “PoE (Data and Power) input” and the “OUT” port functions as “PoE
(Data and Power) output”.
LNK/ACT (Green)
Solid: Indicates that a port link is
established (PSE link is detected)
Blinking: Indicates that the PoE
Extender is actively sending or
receiving data over the IN port
(activity)
PoE OUT (Green)
Solid: Indicates that the port is
providing 52-56V (802.3at) / 48V
(802.3af) DC in-line power (PD is
connected)

Multiple Unit Installation
The PoE Extender supports multiple units in a daisy chain
conguration. They can be connected in series to extend power and
Ethernet data connectivity to your remote PoE powered devices at
longer distances.
1. Using RJ45 cable, connect the “OUT” port on the rst PoE Extender
unit to the “IN” port on the second PoE Extender unit.
2. The “PoE OUT” LED on the rst PoE Extender unit should light up
solid to show it is providing power to the second PoE Extender unit.
3. The “PoE IN” LED on the second PoE Extender unit should also
light up solid to show it is receiving power from the rst PoE
Extender unit.
4. Using RJ45 cable, connect your remote PoE powered device to the
“OUT” port on the second PoE Extender Unit, or connect to a third
PoE Extender unit.
Note: You may daisy chain up to 4 PoE Extender units total to a
maximum of 500m (the 4th unit will supply IEEE 802.3af up to 12W
output).
Single Unit Installation
1. Using RJ45 cable, connect your Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE)
device to the “IN” port on the PoE Extender. The “PoE IN” LED
should light up solid.
2. Using RJ45 cable, connect your PoE Powered Device (PD) to the
“OUT” port on the PoE Extender. The “PoE OUT” LED should light
up solid.
Note: According to the IEEE 802.3at / 802.3af standard, the PoE
Extender will not inject power to the connected RJ45 cable if not
connected to a standard IEEE 802.3at / 802.3af device.
Each PoE Extender unit requires ~3.2 Watts maximum to power
the unit itself. Check the total power consumption of your devices
and the PoE Extender units before setting up in a daisy chain
conguration. If the overall power consumption is overloaded, the
local PSE could shut-down the entire power system.
Each cable segment is limited in 100m using standard RJ45
terminated CAT5 or higher Ethernet cable. Any other non-standard
cable or distances above 100m could result in unstable connections.
Wall-Mounting
The PoE Extender features two mounting holes on the bottom side
of the unit. The mounting holes provide the option to wall-mount
the PoE Extender as desired.
Refer to the diagram below for the maximum supported power
output at each distance.
