Description

Black Box LBPS01A-KIT Ethernet Extender Kit

Overview

The Black Box LBPS01A-KIT provides a robust solution for extending standard Ethernet network connectivity beyond the typical 100-meter (328 ft) limit of Cat5e/Cat6 cabling. This kit is designed to leverage existing copper infrastructure or extend network reach over longer distances using standard twisted-pair copper wire, making it suitable for large industrial sites, campus environments, or any scenario where running new fiber or Ethernet cable is impractical. It supports 10/100Mbps Ethernet speeds, ensuring sufficient bandwidth for IP cameras, access control readers, or other network devices where high throughput isn't the primary requirement but extended range is critical. The LBPS01A-KIT includes both the sender and receiver units, enabling a complete point-to-point extension.

Compatibility

This Ethernet extender kit is designed for general-purpose network extension and is compatible with any standard IEEE 802.3af/at compliant PoE (Power over Ethernet) devices when used in conjunction with a PoE-enabled switch or injector at the source end. It supports standard 10/100Mbps Ethernet traffic, making it suitable for a wide range of IP-based security and automation devices, including most IP cameras, network switches, and IoT sensors that do not require Gigabit speeds. It functions transparently with most network protocols and VMS (Video Management System) software.

Installation Notes

The LBPS01A-KIT operates over standard 2-wire or 4-wire copper cabling, including existing telephone lines or coaxial cable with appropriate adapters (not included). Maximum transmission distance is up to 1,000 meters (3,280 ft) at 10Mbps or 500 meters (1,640 ft) at 100Mbps, depending on cable quality and environmental interference. Power is supplied to the remote unit via the copper pair from the local unit, simplifying installation by eliminating the need for local power at the remote end, provided the connected device's power draw is within the PoE budget. Ensure the copper cable used is in good condition and free from significant damage or shorts to achieve optimal performance and range.
