Intellinet 561211 Outdoor Gigabit Poe Extender IP65

Product Description

The INTELLINET 561211 is an outdoor-rated Gigabit Power over Ethernet extender designed to push an existing PoE or PoE+ network connection beyond the standard 100-meter (328-foot) cable distance limit. Built with a metal housing and an IP65 weatherproof rating, it handles outdoor environments where moisture and dust are a constant concern. It supports IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) and IEEE 802.3af (PoE) standards, allowing it to pass both data and power over a single existing network cable without requiring a separate power source at the extension point. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use this unit to reach cameras, access points, and other PoE-powered devices in locations that exceed standard cable run limits.

The 561211 is suited for outdoor deployments where running new power infrastructure is impractical. Typical applications include extending network drops to security cameras mounted on building exteriors, wireless access points on rooftops or parking structures, and other Gigabit network devices in areas where a direct cable run from the switch would exceed 100 meters. Multiple units can be cascaded in series to cover even greater distances, making this extender a practical solution for large campuses, warehouses, and commercial properties with distributed network endpoints.

Key Features

• Extends PoE and PoE+ connections beyond the 100-meter (328-foot) Ethernet distance limit
• Supports IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) and IEEE 802.3af (PoE) standards
• IP65-rated metal enclosure rated for outdoor use in wet and dusty environments
• Passes data and power over a single existing network cable, eliminating the need for local AC power
• Gigabit throughput maintains full 1 Gbps data rates across the extended run
• Cascadable design allows multiple 561211 units to be chained together for extended coverage

Compatibility

Multiple INTELLINET 561211 units can be cascaded together to extend coverage across longer distances. Designed for use with IEEE 802.3at and IEEE 802.3af compliant PoE switches and injectors.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a low-voltage network technician familiar with structured cabling standards. Ensure the upstream PoE switch or injector meets IEEE 802.3at or 802.3af compliance before connecting the extender. Mount the IP65-rated enclosure in a location that allows proper cable sealing to maintain the weatherproof rating. Verify total cable segment lengths across all cascaded units stay within the per-segment distance limits to ensure reliable link performance.
