The VI-00103 Port Multiplexer enables the connection of two IP/POE devices via a single Cat5e/6/7 cable. The system consists of two devices, a port combiner and a port splitter. The switch-side VI-00103RX combines two IP/PoE signals and transmits them over only one Cat5e/6/7 cable. It has two built-in Cat5 pigtail cables for connection to the PoE switch. The VI-00103TX on the camera side separates the combined signals. For example, two IP cameras can be connected to the VI-00103TX. The VI-00103TX has two built-in LEDs that indicate the PoE status for each port.
The VI-00103 can handle PoE inputs of up to 37 W for each connected device. The two devices are compact and easy to use. They are compatible with IEEE 802.af, IEEE 802.at and most non-standard POE systems with up to 37 W for 10/100 BASE-T environments.

More information
| System notes | The VI-00103 system does not have an extender function. This means that the total transmission distance including all connecting cables may be a maximum of 100m. In individual cases, depending on the cable quality, the maximum possible distance may be slightly shorter. We therefore recommend a field test. |

| transmission cable | Idealer Typ: Cat5e und besser Weitere Typen: Bei Verwendung von Cat3-Kabeln (Telefonkabel) oder Klingeldraht verringern sich die möglichen Distanzen deutlich. Bei Verwendung von Cat7-Kabeln kann ca. mit den gleichen Distanzen wie bei Cat5e/Cat6 gerechnet werden. Die Abschirmungen des Cat7-Kabels dürfen nicht geerdet werden. |
| Transmission distance | Die maximale Übertragungsdistanz bei Verwendung von Cat5e-Kabel oder besser beträgt ca. 500m Bei der ÜBertragung von PoE muss die Verlustleistung der Übertragungsstrecke berücksichtigt werden. |
