The 1701+ Base Extender Solution revolutionizes Ethernet and PoE deployment by transforming any standard PoE switch into a long-reach IP powerhouse. When paired with the 1701+ Link Adapter (sold separately), the solution delivers full-duplex 10/100/1000 Mbps data and IEEE 802.3af/at PoE+ over single-pair UTP, 2-wire, or coaxial infrastructure—at distances up to 8,000 ft (2.4 km) using RG6. This eliminates IDF constraints and reduces the cost and complexity of deploying new cable runs or switches. Supporting data rates up to 420 Mbps with a PoE switch and up to 100W of power when locally powered, the 1701+ Base unit enables the connection of modern IoT devices like IP cameras, phones, speakers, and access control systems using legacy cabling. The unit is also ideal for multi-endpoint topologies, supporting up to 4 connected devices in a point-to-multipoint configuration, and includes LED indicators for power, link, and data status. A member of the 1701+ Series, this industrial-grade extender provides highly reliable, cost-efficient network transformation for enterprise and industrial applications.
