Chapter 2: Overview
2. Overview
2.1 Introduction
Use the PoE Repeater to extend PoE connections beyond the Ethernet limit of
100 meters to access distant Class 2 PoE devices. Data and power both run over
the same cable, so you don’t need a separate power supply. The maximum dis-
tance using two repeaters is 300 meters (984 feet). The maximum distance with
one repeater is 200 meters (656 feet).
Each repeater uses about 2.5 watts, so we don’t recommend daisychaining more
than two units. Two repeaters daisychained support a PoE PD end device up to
6.49 watts.
