Patton 2157R Ruggedized 4.6 Mbps Auto-Rate Ethernet Extender The Patton 2157R extends Ethernet connections at distances up to 32,000 feet (10 km) over existing copper infrastructure cabling Industrial or Outdoor Applications Works in pairs, or paired with 2157 (Indoors)
* Long distance network extension?Extension distances up to 32,000 feet (10 km) or 4.6 Mbps at 1.5 miles (2.5 km). * Uses existing infrastructure?Utilizes installed voice-grade twisted pairs to eliminate the expense of fiber or Cat5e cabling. * Plug and Play?No configuration or cable hassles during installation with auto-sensing 10/100, full or half duplex, and auto MDI-X. * Auto-rate adaption?Ensures the highest rate possible for each extension distance. * Flexible installation?Wall or DIN rail mountable * Ruggedized?Operating temperature of -10 to 70?C or -40 to 85?C for 2157R/CC
The Patton 2157R simplifies network extension by utilizing pre-existing twisted pair infrastructure enabling twisted pair previously used for legacy systems such as TTL, RS232 and 422/485 to be used for extending or connecting Ethernet devices together. With a pair of 2157R?s or combined with a , a user can extend their network connections up to 32,000 ft (10 km). Reusing the already existing infrastructure for Ethernet Networking eliminates the cost of purchasing expensive fiber and Cat5E or greater cabling. Most important, it completely eliminates the hassle and sometimes overwhelming expense and downtime of the cable installations. The 2157R was designed to operate in a rugged environment, with temperature ranges from -10 to 70?C, and the option for conformal coating protecting the device from condensing humidity, and operates at -40 to 85?C. The 2157R?s aluminum case design allows for users to conveniently mount them either on a wall or DIN.
