Planet POE-E304

1-Port 802.3bt PoE++ to 4-Port 802.3af/at Gigabit PoE Extender

Enhanced from the current highly-praised version, PLANET POE-E304 Version 3, 1-Port 802.3bt PoE++ to 4-Port 802.3af/at Gigabit PoE Extender adopts Airoha LAN controller solution. It come with original stable performance and one brand-new built-in solid DIP switch function with advanced features as follows:

Operates as switch architecture in the “Standard” operation mode
The “VLAN” mode operate as a Port-based VLAN isolation architecture
The ”Extend” mode makes port-1 to port-4, operates on a per-port basis at 10Mbps duplex operation but can transmit data over 250 meters distance

PoE Solution for Long-reach Distance

PLANET POE-E304 is a 1-Port 802.3bt PoE++ to 4-Port 802.3af/at Gigabit PoE Extender designed especially for the point to multipoint PoE application. The POE-E304 can obtain a maximum of 95-watt PoE power from IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ input port and supplies a maximum of 65-watt PoE power budget for 4 PoE output ports, extending both the reach of Gigabit Ethernet Data and IEEE 802.3af/802.3at Power over Ethernet over the standard 100m (328 ft.) Cat. 5/5e/6 UTP cable to 250m where up to 4 powered devices (PDs) can be powered at the same time. The POE-E304 provides a simple solution for adding PoE ports without running more cabling and achieves more flexible network applications without requiring an external power adapter.

DIP Switch for Operation Mode Selection

The POE-E304 offers “Standard”, “VLAN” or “Extend” mode. The POE-E304 operates as a normal Gigabit Ethernet Switch in the “Standard” operation mode.

The “VLAN” operation mode features port-based VLAN function that can help to prevent the connected clients’ multicast or broadcast storm from influencing each other.

In the “Extend” operation mode, the POE-E304 operates on a per-port basis at 10Mbps duplex operation but can transmit data over a distance of up to 250 meters overcoming the 100m limit on Ethernet UTP cable. With this brand-new feature, the POE-E304 provides an additional solution for distance extension, thus saving the cost of Ethernet cable installation.

DIP Switch Mode	Function
Standard (default)	This mode makes the POE-E304 operate as a general switch and all ports operate at 10/100/1000Mbps auto-negotiation.
VLAN	This mode makes the POE-E304 operate as a VLAN isolation switch and 1. Port 1 to port 4 will isolate respectively. 2. Port 1 to port 4 can only communicate with port 5 (uplink port).
Extend	This mode makes the POE-E304 operate as a distance extension switch and port 1 to port 4 can only transmit distance of 250m at speed of 10Mbps.

Plug and Play, Easy Cabling Installation

The POE-E304 can be easily installed by way of Plug and Play. It is used between a power source equipment (PSE) and the PD. The POE-E304 injects power to the PD without affecting the data transmission performance. The POE-E304 offers a cost-effective and quick solution to doubling the standard range of PoE from 100 to 250 meters. The POE-E304 is designed in a compact box containing 5 RJ45 ports, of which 1 “PoE IN” port functions as PoE (Data and Power) input and 4 “PoE OUT” ports on the other side functions as PoE (Data and Power) output. The “PoE OUT” port is also the power injector where DC voltage is transmitted over Cat. 5/5e/6 cable, and data and power are simultaneously transferred between the PSE and PD.
