Product Description
A PoE extender does one job: it lets a single cable run carry power and data further than a standard Ethernet cable allows, adding up to a further 100 metres on top of the run into your camera or access point.
What it's for
If a camera site is beyond the reach of one Ethernet cable, this extender sits inline between the switch (or PoE injector) and the camera, regenerating both the network signal and the PoE power so the device at the far end still gets a full Gigabit link.
Key specs
- Extends PoE transmission distance by up to 100 metres
- Compatible with IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at PoE standards
- Supports Gigabit Ethernet data speeds
- RJ45 PoE input and PoE output ports
- Powered from the PoE input — no separate power supply needed
- Plug and play — no configuration required
- Compact metal housing with passive cooling vents
What to check before buying
Confirm your upstream switch or injector supports 802.3af or 802.3at, since this extender draws its power directly from that PoE source rather than a mains adapter. It's aimed at IP cameras and other PoE network devices rather than powering non-PoE equipment.
Where it fits
Common uses include long camera runs on warehouse perimeters, distant building wings, or multi-building sites where re-routing cable back to the rack isn't practical.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much extra distance does this add?
Up to 100 metres beyond the standard Ethernet cable limit, using its RJ45 PoE input and output ports.
Does it need its own power supply?
No — it's powered directly from the PoE input, so no separate power adapter is required.
Which PoE standards does it support?
It's compatible with both IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at PoE standards.
Does it support Gigabit speeds?
Yes, it supports Gigabit Ethernet data transmission for bandwidth-heavy devices like IP cameras.
