1.2 Application Diagram

The IPOE-E174 is designed as the repeater to forward both Gigabit Ethernet data and IEEE 802.3at PoE power, thus extending the range of PoE installation. With just plug and play and without additional power supply and setup, one single IPOE-E174 can increase the PoE range to 200m and drive up four remote PoE IP cameras or wireless access point.

2.3 Mounting Installation

This section describes how to install the Industrial Power over Ethernet Extender and make connections to it. Please read the following topics and perform the procedures in the order being presented.

Note

In the installation steps below, this Manual uses IGS-801 (PLANET 8 Port Industrial Gigabit Switch) as an example. However, the steps for PLANET Industrial Power over Ethernet Extender are similar.

2.3.1 DIN-rail Mounting

Place the Industrial Power over Ethernet Extender on the DIN rail, which is mounted on the wall, and screw it. Just follow the steps below to install the Extender.

Step 1: Lightly insert the bottom of the switch into the track.

Step 3: Use the screws to screw the wall-mount plate on the Industrial Power over Ethernet Extender.

Step 4: Use the hook holes in the corners of the wall-mount plate to hang the Industrial Gigabit Ethernet Switch on the wall.

Step 5: To remove the wall-mount plate, reverse the steps above.

2.4 Connecting IPOE-E174 to Power Source Equipment (PSE)

This section describes how to install the Industrial Power over Ethernet Extender and make connections to it. Please read the following topics and perform the procedures in the order being presented.

There are five RJ45 ports in the Industrial Power over Ethernet Extender, of which the "PoE IN" port functions as "PoE (Data and Power) input" and the "PoE In-Use" port on the other side functions as "PoE (Data and Power) output".

Step 1: Connect a standard CAT-5e/6 UTP cable from Power Source Equipment (PSE), such as PoE Switch, PoE injector hub and single port PoE injector, to the "PoE IN" port of the IPOE-E174.

PWR Analog port IN 60W PoE PLNET 4-P LNK ACT PoE IN

Step 2: The PSE delivers both Ethernet Data and PoE power over UTP cable to the IPOE-E174 and the "PoE IN" LED will be lit steadily.

Note

1. When the LED turns steady green, it means the IPOE-E174 is being powered successfully with PoE.

2. If the LED is not lit, please check the remote PSE or the cable connecting to a PC or a network device to see if the cable is correct. Or with an 802.3at device such as the target PD, check whether the power injection is correct.

3. Never connect any non-standard POE PSE to the IPOE-E174, it will damage the device permanently.

2.5 Connecting IPOE-E174 to Powered Device (PD)

Step 1: Connect the additional CAT-5e/6 cable that will be used to connect to the remote Powered Device (PD) to the "PoE In-Use" port of the IPOE-E174.

Extender PcE Power Cable (Hz) LNR ACF 1 PcE On/Low 2

Step 2: The "PoE In-Use" port is also the power injector which transmits DC voltage to the CAT-5e/6 cable and transfer data and power simultaneously between the PSE and PD.

Step 3: Once the IPOE-E174 detects the existence of an IEEE 802.3at/af device, the "PoE In-Use" LED indicator will be lit steadily, showing it is providing power.

Note

1. If the connected device is not fully complying with IEEE 802.3af/at standard or in-line power device, the PoE In-Use LED indicator of the IPOE-E174 will not be lit steadily.
2. According to IEEE 802.3af/at standard, the IPOE-E174 will not inject power to the cable if not connecting to a standard IEEE 802.3af/at device.
3. DONOT connect any PSE to port 1 \~ port 4 of the IPOE-E174, it may damage the device permanently.
