3. Installation
Desktop Installation
- Connect the first PoE extender to a PoE-enabled port on a switch (802.3af/at/bt compatible) or power it using a DC adapter.
- Connect the second PoE extender to the first extender's PoE input port.
- Connect an IP camera or other PoE device to the second extender's PoE output port.
Recommendation: For optimal performance and stability, limit the chain to a maximum of three PoE extenders.
Wall-mount Installation
This mounting option is available for models WI-PE31E, WI-PE31G, WI-PE21E, and WI-PE21G.
4. Network Application Example
Networking Solution Illustration:
This section describes a typical network deployment using Wi-Tek PoE Extenders to increase the range of PoE-powered devices, such as IP cameras, beyond the standard 100-meter Ethernet cable limit.
Diagram Description:
The diagram illustrates a network chain: A PoE Switch (compliant with 802.3af/at/bt standards) provides both data and power to the first PoE Extender via a standard 100-meter Ethernet cable. This first extender then transmits data and power to a second PoE Extender, also over a 100-meter cable. The second extender, in turn, powers and connects an IP camera. The system allows for extended reach; by configuring the DIP switch to 'Extend' mode, the transmission distance for PoE output ports can be increased up to 250 meters, albeit at a reduced speed of 10Mbps.
