Extend Ethernet over twisted pair |
Extend an Ethernet link over category 5e, 6 and 7 cabling up to 10,000 feet ( 3 km ) |
Extend Ethernet over Coaxial cable |
Extend an Ethernet link over 75 ohm coaxial cable |
Hi-Speed Performance |
Utilizes second generation VDSL2
technology ( ITU-T Recommendation G.993. ). When operating under
“Profile 30a”, Perle Ethernet Extenders can provide an aggregate data
rate capability of over 200 mbps.
Actual distance and performance may vary depending on the type / gauge and condition of the wire used. |
Plug and Play operation |
Perle Ethernet Extenders will
automatically configure your VDSL interlink connection. The CO/CPE peer
association will be determined automatically by the Ethernet Extender.
No need to set CO / CPE VDSL pairing.
Once a connection is made, both ends
will automatically adjust relevant VDSL parameters to optimize the level
of bandwidth possible across the copper link. |
Link Pass-Through* |
With Link Pass-Through the state of
the 10/100Base-TX Ethernet connection is “passed through” the VDSL link
to the 10/100Base-TX Ethernet connection on its remote peer. A managed
switch on the remote end can then report the state (link up or link
down) to its network management system so that any errors can be
detected and recovered early.
Competitive Ethernet extenders without
this feature will never detect or report any error conditions. |
Interlink Fault Feedback* |
Similar to the Link Pass-Through
feature, a loss of VDSL link will drop the 10/100 Ethernet ports on each
end until the link recovers. |
Auto-Negotiation |
The Ethernet Extender supports auto negotiation on the 10/100Base-TX interface. |
Auto-MDIX |
Auto-MDIX (Automatic
Medium-Dependent Interface crossover) detects the signaling on the
10/100 Ethernet RJ45 interface and determines the type of cable
connected (straight-through or crossover) and automatically adopts a
compatible pinout. |
Fixed Speed and Duplex |
Some Ethernet equipment require a
fixed speed and duplex be used or cannot auto-negotiate. By disabling
Auto-Negotiation on the Ethernet Extender, a fixed speed of 10 or 100
mbps as well as Full or half Duplex can be configured through DIP
switches. |
VLAN |
Transparent to tagged VLAN ( 802.1Q ) packets. |
Transparent to IP Video compression protocols |
Fully transparent to such IP video compression schemes such as MPEG-4, H.264 and MJPEG. |
Power Strain Relief strap |
A strain relief strap is provided to
ensure a solid and secure power connection to the Ethernet Extender.
Ideal for areas that may be exposed to vibration. |
Loopback |
When enabled, will perform a loopback on the copper VDSL Interlink. |
