Network Repeater LevelOne PoE Repeater Cascadable

POR-0200 PoE-Plus Repeater extends the reach of PoE (802.3af/at) networks by allowing installers to increase cable runs beyond the standard 100 meters. Designed for system integrators, the POR-0200 accepts power and data from a PoE-Plus PSE and repeats the connection to extend an additional 100 meters; multiple units can be daisy-chained to achieve greater distances depending on the powered device's wattage.

Advantages

The POR-0200 requires no external power supply because it draws power from the Power Sending Equipment (PSE), simplifying deployment. It features a durable metal housing and three RJ-45 ports: one IN port for power and data input and two OUT ports — one providing PoE (power + data) and one providing data-only. Installation is plug-and-play with no software configuration needed, making it suitable for tight or constrained installations.

Key specifications

• Standards: PoE 802.3af / PoE-Plus 802.3at compatible
• Maximum extended distance per repeater: additional 100 meters
• Ports: 3 × RJ-45 (1 × IN, 1 × OUT PoE, 1 × OUT data-only)
• Power source: receives power from PSE (no external PSU)
• Housing: durable metal enclosure
• Installation: plug-and-play, no software required
• Expandable: multiple repeaters can be daisy-chained (maximum distance depends on PD wattage)

How to use

Connect an Ethernet cable from the PoE-Plus switch (PSE) to the POR-0200 IN port to supply power and data for up to the first 100 meters. Then connect the OUT PoE port to the powered device (PD) to extend power and data for an additional 100 meters, or use the OUT data-only port for devices that do not require PoE. To reach farther distances, connect another POR-0200 unit to the OUT port and repeat the steps; ensure the combined chain supports the PD's power requirements.

Recommendations

Verify the power budget of your PoE switch and the wattage requirements of connected devices before daisy-chaining repeaters. The maximum achievable distance depends on the required wattage of the powered device; plan the number of repeaters accordingly to maintain adequate power delivery.
