We use these where I work and every once in a while, the ones that are furthest apart just stop working. We generally replace both the local and remote units and they work again for several months. When we take them back to the shop and hook them up, they're fine. The locations are approximately 1900' apart, the first 800' is CAT6 cable and the rest is underground shielded #14 solid cable.

Description Functional description The Wolverine DDW-142-485 allows effec tive Ethernet networks to be created over long distances up to 15 km (9.3 mi) at data rates up to 15.3 Mbit/s on a single twisted pair cable. By using two pairs “bonded” this rate can be doubled up to 30.4 Mbit/s. The integral switch allows two Ethernet devices to be attached and an RS-422/485 port allows for a legacy piece of equipment to be incorporated into the IP network.
