AXIS T8129-E Outdoor PoE Extender offers a smart and easy-to-install solution for extending the range of your network – with no additional power supply. Without being restricted by the 100m (328ft.) limit for Ethernet cables, Axis network video products can be installed at greater distances. Simply connect AXIS T8129-E in-line with the CAT5e or CAT6 cable and power is forwarded to your Axis network video product.

Wide compatibility

A perfect match with all Axis network video products, AXIS T8129-E Outdoor PoE Extender supports PoE, and it is both IEEE 802.3af, IEEE 802.3at and High PoE 60 W compatible. With its rugged, IP66/IP67-rated enclosure, AXIS T8129-E withstands harsh environmental conditions and challenging temperatures.

Covering the distances

Range depends on the power required so depending on midspan and camera type the connection can in total be between 200-400 meters (656-1312 ft.). For instance, a 25 watt PTZ dome camera may be located 200 m (656 ft.) away using a single AXIS T8129-E. Or, the cable length to a regular 5 watt network camera may extend up to 400 m (1312 ft.), by fitting three AXIS T8129-E at 100 m (328 ft.) intervals.

Typical setup

The table below shows the maximum distances from the network switch depending on power source, by adding an Axis PoE Extender for every 100m (328ft). The actual figures will depend on operating conditions. The range is over 24AWG (or heavier) CAT5e or CAT6 cable except where specified:

Powered device	PoE source
Powered device	PoE switch or Axis 15 W midspan (802.3af)	PoE+ switch (802.3at)	Axis 30W midspan (802.3at)**	Axis 60W midspan (High PoE)
Low power PoE devices Devices that are PoE Class 1, or require under 6 watts	300m (984 ft.)	400m (1312 ft.)	400m (1312 ft.)	400m (1312 ft.)
Medium power PoE devices Devices that are PoE Class 1 or 2, or require under 12 watts	200m (656 ft.)	200m (656 ft.)	300m (984 ft.)	300m (984 ft.)
Full power PoE or PoE+ devices Devices that are PoE 802.3af or 802.at compliant, or require over 12 watts	Not supported	Not supported	200m (656 ft.)*	200 m (656 ft.)*
Custom High PoE devices Devices specified for use with Axis 60W Injectors	Not supported	Not supported	Not supported	200m (656 ft.)*

Note: The actual figures depend on operating conditions. Range is over 24 AWG or heavier CAT5e or CAT6 cable except where specified.

* use 23 AWG or heavier cable (typically CAT6)
** Axis 30W midspans are fully 802.3at compliant but operate at a higher voltage than most PoE+ switches, therefore it enables longer ranges then most normal PoE+ Switches.
