Frequently Asked Questions
What is an Ethernet over coax extender and how does it work?
An Ethernet over coax extender transmits digital network signals and power over existing coaxial cable infrastructure. The 1701+ Extender Kit uses the Base Extender to inject both data and PoE+ power onto coax lines, which Link Adapters then extract at remote locations. This allows you to extend network reach without installing new Ethernet cabling, making it ideal for retrofitting surveillance systems and distributed networks.
Can the 1701+ Extender Kit work with my existing coax cable?
Yes. The PoE+ extender is designed to work with standard coaxial cable infrastructure (RG-59, RG-6) commonly found in surveillance and broadcast installations. This compatibility eliminates the need for costly new cabling and allows rapid deployment over distances up to 8000 feet.
What devices can I power with the 1701+ Extender Kit?
The kit delivers PoE+ power over coax, enabling you to power IP cameras, wireless access points, network switches, and other PoE+-compatible devices at distances up to 8000 feet. This is particularly valuable for remote surveillance cameras and outdoor network installations where power infrastructure is limited.
How many devices can I connect using this extender kit?
The kit includes one Base Extender and two Link Adapters, supporting a primary extended connection plus one additional remote device. For larger deployments, multiple kits can be cascaded or used in parallel to extend network reach across multiple locations while maintaining 420 Mb/s performance per link.
