LevelOne Gigabit PoE Repeater, Cascadable, 2 PoE Outputs

POR-0222 is a Gigabit PoE-Plus 2-port repeater designed to extend the reach of Gigabit PoE (802.3af/at) networks. It receives power and data from a PoE Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) such as a Gigabit PoE-Plus switch and extends the connection by an additional 100 meters through its two output ports. The unit has a durable metal housing and requires no external power supply, making it suitable for tight installations and deployments where extended cable runs are needed.

Advantages

POR-0222 extends standard Ethernet cable runs beyond the typical 100-meter limit, allowing up to 200 meters between the PSE and powered devices when a single repeater is used, and even greater distances when multiple repeaters are daisy-chained. The device is plug-and-play, draws all required power from the upstream PSE, supports Gigabit wire-speed transmission, and provides two PoE output ports for flexible device placement. Its metal enclosure ensures durability for professional installations.

Key specifications

• Standard: 802.3af/at Gigabit PoE (PoE-Plus)
• Ports: 3 × RJ-45 (1 IN, 2 OUT)
• Transmission speed: 10/100/1000 Mbps wire speed
• Extension length: extends PoE connection by additional 100 meters per repeater
• Power: Powered by upstream PSE (no external PSU required)
• Housing: durable metal enclosure
• Installation: Plug-and-play, no software required

How to use

Connect the IN port of the POR-0222 to a Gigabit PoE-Plus switch or other PSE using standard Ethernet cabling for up to 100 meters. Then connect PoE devices to the two OUT ports to extend both power and data for an additional 100 meters. For longer distances, connect multiple POR-0222 units in series (daisy chain) between the PSE and the remote device, taking into account the power requirements of the powered device when planning the number of repeaters.

Recommendations

Verify the power budget of the upstream PSE and the wattage requirements of connected devices before deployment. The maximum achievable distance and number of repeaters depend on the PD’s required wattage. Use quality Ethernet cable and follow installation best practices to maintain Gigabit performance.
