Double Your Ethernet Reach Instantly with an Unmanaged, Line-Powered Gigabit Extender
The TRENDnet Gigabit PoE+ Extender (TPE-E100) provides a seamless, cost-effective infrastructure solution designed to bypass the standard 100-meter (328-foot) structural limitation of traditional copper category cabling. Engineered for long-range IP surveillance networks, remote wireless access deployments, and isolated edge hardware placements, this inline repeater pulls its power straight from your primary PoE source to seamlessly push full gigabit data and power further out into the field.
Housed in a rugged, ultra-compact metal protective shell, the TPE-E100 automatically senses the signature power levels of downstream hardware arrays, safely passing through standard PoE (15.4W) or high-capacity PoE+ (30W) loads. Because it runs purely on raw line-voltage received from upstream Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), it completely eliminates the logistical headache, hardware costs, and safety restrictions of routing dedicated electrical lines out to remote mounting spaces.
Key Product Features
- Instant 100-Meter Range Extension: Receives an incoming network run and regenerates it an additional 100 meters (328 feet) for a total baseline distance of up to 200 meters (656 feet).
- Multi-Unit Daisy-Chain Capability: Supports cascading multiple inline extenders in series to safely stretch network boundaries across multi-hundred-meter coverage lines.
- Pure PoE-Powered Architecture: Draws all operational currents directly from the incoming ethernet line—no external wall outlets or localized power adapters required.
- Auto-Sensing Power Delivery: Intelligent internal circuit logic automatically detects and delivers the correct localized wattage for connected IEEE 802.3af (15.4W) or 802.3at (30W) devices.
- Full Wire-Speed Gigabit Performance: Equipped with full-duplex non-blocking Gigabit ports to safely transfer large processing streams without latency or speed throttling.
- Ruggedized Metal Housing: Encased in a compact, durable steel shell featuring integrated surface mounting points for clean, stable installations on walls or tight structural enclosures.
