RuggedNet® GXPoE+/Si and GXHPoE/Si
Industrial Unmanaged 30W/60W Gigabit PoE Extender with Smart Voltage-Booster Technology
RuggedNet Industrial GXPoE+/Si and GXHPoE/Si are unmanaged gigabit PoE Extenders that facilitate the delivery of Ethernet data and Power over Ethernet (PoE) beyond the standard 100-meter limit of twisted pair copper cabling.
These PoE Extenders offer a cost-effective solution for extending distance and connectivity to remote PoE devices where external power is unavailable or difficult to provide, or when the replacement of copper with fiber is not economically viable.
As 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet extenders, they serve dual functions as Powered Devices (PD) and Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), eliminating the need for external AC power. They are equipped with one PoE/PD port and one or two PoE/PSE ports and can be energized by an IEEE 802.3at or High-Power PoE 60W power source, like a RuggedNet GHPoEBT/Si or GHPoEBT/Mi High-Power 60W PSE switch.
With data regeneration and voltage level boosting, RuggedNet Industrial PoE Extenders can be daisy-chained to overcome the Ethernet copper distance limitation, providing 10/100/1000 data and power to several PoE-powered devices.
Cable resistance can cause a voltage drop across the cabling, reducing the voltage below the minimum standard requirement for the attached PD. RuggedNet PoE Extenders incorporate Smart Voltage-Boosting Technology to sustain standard-compliant PoE voltage levels between hops.
These PoE Extenders automatically negotiate and supply the power level needed by a Powered Device (PD) partner. When a non-PoE device, such as a laptop, is connected for data-only applications, no power is delivered.
RuggedNet Industrial PoE Extenders are plug-and-play, supporting auto-negotiation of data rates and duplex modes for straightforward in-line installation, instantly extending industrial network distances. They become fully operational upon connection of a PSE to the PoE/PD port, indicating power and operational status even without a PD connected. This facilitates the installation along with troubleshooting by ensuring each link is operational.
The RuggedNet Industrial PoE Extenders have wall, rack mount and DIN rail mounting options.
