Background:


Power Over Ethernet (PoE) is a game-changer in the world of networking, seamlessly delivering power and data over a single cable. This not only simplifies installations but also enhances flexibility in deploying devices such as IP cameras, access points, and more. However, one of the notable limitations of traditional PoE is its restricted transmission distance. Standard PoE is typically effective up to 100 meters, posing challenges in scenarios where devices need to be deployed at longer distances from the power source. This limitation has hindered the full realization of PoE's potential in large-scale installations.

LINOVISION Ultra Long Range PoE solution:


Ultra Long Range PoE Transmission is a groundbreaking solution designed to extend the reach of PoE beyond the traditional limits. This technology enables power and data transmission over distances far beyond the standard 100 meters, facilitating deployments in outdoor areas, and remote locations.We will demonstrate how to achieve ultra-long-distance PoE transmission, powering and providing network connectivity to the end security camera by PoE switch, through total length of 800 meters of Ethernet cable. and provide a step-by-step installation guide along with the final result showcase.

Linovision Long-Range Outdoor PoE Extender (POE-EXT3001LP)


POE-EXT3001LP is a 100M waterproof single-port extender. This device provides 2 10/100Mbps RJ45 ports, the input port is connected to the PoE switch, and the output port is connected to the IP terminal device. Two extenders can be used with a PoE switch to extend 10Mbps network data up to 800 meters. No configuration is required, just plug and play.

Professional outdoor housing design, adaptable to various harsh environments, with high stability, reliability, industrial grade level, and wide temperature range. The whole machine does not require a power adapter, making it convenient for harsh outdoor environments and indoor monitoring equipment where power is not easily accessible.
In specific fields such as city surveillance or extensive camera deployment for security purposes, the demand often exceeds the standard PoE limitation, requiring solutions for distances beyond 100 meters, for extending PoE connectivity beyond the 100-meter mark within the limitations of copper cabling, PoE extenders are commonly employed. These devices can boost the signal and power to reach further distances, albeit typically up to an additional 100 meters per extender, necessitating multiple units for distances significantly beyond the standard limit.

To address the challenge of ultra-long-distance PoE transmission, as we mean that far more than 500 or even 1000 meters PoE Transmission, LINOVISION's EOC (Ethernet over Coax) converters provide a groundbreaking approach. These devices enable PoE power and data transmission over coaxial cable, offering a practical solution for extending the reach of PoE beyond traditional limitations, catering specifically to applications requiring extended distances for device deployment. By leveraging existing coaxial infrastructure, such solutions offer a cost-effective and efficient means to significantly extend the reach of PoE networks, making them ideal for applications in city safety, surveillance, and extensive camera deployment across vast distances.
