Transition Networks Ethernet Over 2-Wire Extender With PoE+ provides the ability to quickly and easily upgrade Ethernet networks with modern PoE powered IP devices without the need to replace the existing copper wire infrastructure. The extenders leverage existing 18-24 AWG unshielded twisted pair (CAT 5, CAT 3 and other 2-wire phone wire) cabling infrastructure to extend the Ethernet network at near Gigabit speeds and provide data and power to IP devices in remote locations, saving time and money over installing new cable.
The Ethernet Over 2-Wire Extenders With PoE+ are used in pairs, with a local or remote device at opposite ends of the copper link. The extenders provide flexibility for either copper or fiber Ethernet connections. The Local device offers a 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 and 100/1000Base-X open SFP combo port and a RJ-45 or 2-wire terminal block connection to provide safety extra low voltage (SELV) power over 2-wire to the Remote device. The Remote device receives power through the RJ-45 or 2-wire terminal block connection and provides a 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 output with PoE+ power or a 100/1000Base-X open SFP combo port connection for IP cameras, wireless access points or other PoE powered end devices.
Power for the Local device can be supplied through a properly isolated +48VDC power source or through the designated 90 Watt power adapter. Power for the Remote device can be supplied with PoE from the Local unit, through a properly isolated +48VDC power source, or through the designated power adapter for providing redundant power or for additional power requirements at the Remote device.
The Ethernet Over 2-Wire Extenders With PoE+ are supplied with a web GUI, which allows password-protected access to various configuration options of both the Local and Remote devices through a single IP address. It also allows easy upgrades to firmware.

Transition Networks Ethernet Over 2-Wire Extender With PoE+ carries Ethernet data and PoE+ power over existing two-wire copper cabling, making it suitable for network installers who need to connect remote IP cameras, wireless access points, or other PoE devices without running new cable; it is used with a matching extender at the other end.
Recommended For
- Network installers retrofitting IP cameras or other PoE devices in a building with existing twisted-pair phone wiring, where running new Ethernet would mean extra construction.
- Installers connecting a remote wireless access point or other PoE endpoint over an existing two-wire run when the usual Ethernet distance or cable route is impractical.
- Facilities and network teams extending a wired connection to a detached or hard-to-reach location over suitable existing two-wire cabling, instead of installing a new cable route.
- Technicians who can check the existing cable’s type, gauge, and length and calculate whether the run can deliver the required data rate and PoE power.
Real-World Use Scenarios
- When an IP security camera needs to be installed where Ethernet is unavailable, pair the extenders over existing two-wire cabling to carry network data and PoE+ to the camera, avoiding a new cable run when the wiring is suitable.
- To add a wireless access point in a hard-to-reach part of a building, reuse an existing two-wire run to deliver network connectivity and PoE+, reducing the need to install new cabling or find a nearby power outlet.
- In a legacy or historic building where installing new cable is disruptive or restricted, use an existing compatible phone-wire pair to connect a remote IP device; the practical benefit is adding network service while retaining the existing cable route.
- For a camera or other PoE device at a remote site, use a suitable existing two-wire link between the network and the device location; this can extend connectivity beyond a standard Ethernet cable run, with achievable speed, distance, and power depending on the cable.
