Connecting cameras over 100m in distance from G-Series PoE or Una recorders

ExacqVision G-Series PoE and Una recorders provide Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) ports for direct connections to cameras, rather than accessing cameras through a switched network.

The TIA/EIA 568 standard provide that the maximum allowable length of a Cat5/5e or Cat6 cable is 100 meters (328 feet) for ethernet networks. To connect a camera farther than 100m away, the network connection must be extended using a method other than a network switch.

The following information explains the trade-offs of using various extender/repeater, midspan and injector technologies to extend the network.

PoE and PoE+ Injectors and Midspans

Advantages:

  • Extends the network segment over 100m
  • Provides additional PoE power, reducing the PoE power drawn from the recorder; useful when the combined power draw of all cameras would exceed system limits:
    • 8-port G-Series PoE, Gen2 – 15 watts per port; 120 watts total
    • 16-port G-Series PoE, Gen2 – 15 watts per port; 240 watts total
    • 4-port G-Series PoE, Gen1 – 15 watts per port; 60 watts total
    • 8-port G-Series PoE, Gen1 – 15 watts per port; 120 watts total
    • 16-port G-Series PoE, Gen1 – 15 watts per port; 240 watts total
    • 8-port Una – 25 watts per port; 120 watts total
    • 16-port Una – 25 watts per port; 240 watts total

Disadvantage:

  • Recorder cannot power cycle cameras that are receiving PoE power from the injector or midspan.

PoE and PoE+ Extenders/Repeaters

Advantages:

  • Extends the network segment over 100m
  • Powered by recorder PoE power; does not require a separate power supply.
  • Cameras can still be rebooted from the ExacqVision Desktop Client PoE port management page.

Disadvantage:

  • A small amount of PoE power from recorder is consumed by the in-line extender, reducing power available to the camera.


Exacq Technologies does not test or make specific recommendations for products to extend ethernet networking.
