Vivotek AP-FEX-0250-T Outdoor Fiber Extender Module

Vivotek AP-FEX-0250-T Outdoor Fiber Extender Module

The Vivotek AP-FEX-0250-T is a rugged 2-port EPoC transmitter module engineered for extending network connectivity across challenging outdoor environments. This advanced fiber extender leverages Ethernet over Coax technology to deliver reliable power and data transmission over extended distances, making it ideal for distributed IP surveillance systems and industrial monitoring networks where traditional Ethernet infrastructure is impractical.

Key Features

• 2-port Ethernet output with independent PoE control switches
• Extended transmission capability: 500m PoE distance and 2.4 km Ethernet distance over RG6 coax
• Supports 802.3at/af PoE standards for flexible device powering
• Compact outdoor-rated design with IP-grade construction
• 6KV surge protection on BNC ports for weather event resilience
• Ultra-low power consumption at 3W for efficient operation
• Wide operating temperature range: -30°C to 60°C

Technical Specifications

The AP-FEX-0250-T features one BNC port for coax input and two Ethernet ports for flexible network connectivity. Individual PoE on/off switches enable independent control of each output port, allowing selective powering of connected devices. The module's robust 6KV surge protection on the BNC port safeguards against lightning strikes and electrical transients common in outdoor installations. With a compact footprint of 167.5 x 72.8 x 39.8 mm and minimal weight of 0.36 kg, this module integrates seamlessly into outdoor enclosures and installations.

Operating across a broad temperature spectrum from -30°C to 60°C and humidity levels up to 95% non-condensing, the AP-FEX-0250-T maintains consistent performance in extreme climate conditions. Safety certifications including CE, FCC, and VCCI ensure compliance with international standards.

Applications

• Extended IP surveillance networks in large outdoor campuses
• Industrial monitoring systems in remote or geographically dispersed locations
• Utility and infrastructure monitoring requiring long-distance coax runs
• Traffic monitoring and public safety camera deployments
• Multi-site facilities requiring centralized network infrastructure

Installation & Compatibility

The AP-FEX-0250-T is designed for integration with Vivotek's outdoor IP camera solutions and other standard network devices requiring robust outdoor connectivity. The module operates as a transmitter unit, extending signals from a central network switch to remote outdoor locations via standard RG6 coaxial cabling, eliminating the need for costly fiber optic infrastructure while maintaining signal integrity over extended distances.
