PoE Extenders, 1-port Transmitter Box (POEXTX1)
The Panduit PoE extender 1-port transmitter are shown in Figure 2. Panduit recommends placing this device within
50 feet (15 meters) of the switch it is connected to.
Figure 2: Panduit PoE Extender 1-port Transmitter (POEXTX1) with Speed Switch highlighted.
The transmitters come with a speed switch that allows a selection of ten or 100 Mb/s. It must be set to the speed it will
operate at. The default setting is 100 Mb/s.
If a Power over Ethernet port is used at the switch, a switch port providing 30 W or 50 W will function in providing data
and power to the receiver and end device. More power will be available with a 50 W power. If only data transmission is
needed, a PoE compatible 802.3af class 2-port (providing up to 6.49 W) is required.
If an external power supply is used, Panduit recommends the 60 W power supply (POWER-60W, sold separately) for use
with this device.
In the case where multiple transmitters are located in close proximity, such as on the POEXPANEL-BL and
POEXPANEL-WH, Panduit recommends the 190 W power supply (POWER-190W). This is a single power supply that can
power up to four transmitters.
PoE Extenders, 1-port Receiver Box (POEXRX1)
The Panduit PoE extender 1-port receiver box is shown in Figure 3.
Panduit recommends placing this device within 50 feet (15 meters)
of the device it is connected to.
The transmitter is capable of supplying power to the PoE extender 1-port

receiver If the guidelines for supplying power to the transmitter are followed
Receiver (POEXRX1)
as noted above, the receiver will function.
If an external power supply is used, Panduit recommends the 60 W power supply (POWER-60W, sold separately or as
part of the POEXKIT1 and POEXKIT1-NP) for use with this device. This should be done in cases where the transmitter was
unable to provide sufficient power to the receiver for use by the end device.
Note: The receiver is not capable of supplying power to the transmitter. The transmitter must always have its own power source
from either a PoE switch or external power supply.
PoE Extenders, 4-port Receiver Box (POEXRX4)
The Panduit PoE extender 4-port receiver box is shown in Figure 4.
Panduit recommends placing this device within 50 feet (15 meters)
of the devices it is connected to.
The Panduit PoE extender 1-port transmitter is capable of supplying
power to the PoE extender 4-port receiver. If the guidelines for
supplying power to the transmitter are followed as noted above,
the receiver will function. However, note that now because the
Figure 4: Panduit PoE Extender 4-port
power is split among four ports it may be less than needed.
