Magic PoE Power: Computers and Accessories

I've been a CCTV installer for 10 years now and I have to say these PoE extenders are the most incredible piece of magic ever created by mankind. I have a large customer who expected me to install 2 cameras at their gate, more than 300ft from a PoE switch (TP-Link TL-SG1005P V2) in the house. Note: The maximum distance for PoE is 328 feet (when using the best CAT6 cable). There is no power at the gate but there were 2 CAT6 cables running about 1100ft to the gate. I found this product on YouTube and found that 2 of these PoE extenders can be placed facing each other, 100m (328ft (I used 310ft just to be sure) spacing) from each end + over 900ft between each [Input - Input] Not only did 2 of these PoE extenders allow 2 4K cameras to be connected, my client can now watch ultra high definition video on their gate without having to install an AC power adapter. Install/wire electricity 1100 feet from home. I now build these extenders into all my PoE solutions over 200ft just to be on the safe side. Don't believe me, watch the video :-)

Pros
  • Important! Only work with standard PoE devices such as PoE IP Camera, PoE Access Point, PoE VoIP. Doesn't work with non-PoE devices such as network switch, laptop.
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
