TPE-E100

these repeaters are great. i had a new client that a previous tech installed horribly long data runs of up to 600'. needless to say the network was slow, dropping out, and for CCTV is bad to have such slow speeds. im sure with these long runs the effective throughput had to be like 5mb. i put these inline and the network came up. One of these units recently failed and I am going to contact the company for a replacement.

Purchased this for a job that haf about 344 ft worth of cat-5 cable. Started off buying 2 unpowered cheaper ones but they were duds and did not work at all. Afterwards purchased the two port powered version but it arrived without the power supply. I figured this was a shipping error so returned it for another one hoping it would arrive with the power cable but neither did this one. How can you sell a product that is advertised as being powered but without the power cable? Terrible experience with the product and recommend anyone willing to buy this, to do so with extreme caution. You'll just end up wasting your time, and your customers valuable time as well.

This product will let you go beyond the limit of ethernet, even Gigabit network, no problem! For me it's the best IT item of the year or years. Thanks a lot! TRENDnet Gigabit PoE+ Repeater/Amplifier, Single Port PoE Power over Ethernet, Extends 100m for Total Distance Up to 200m (656 ft.), TPE-E100

This is the best product and I recommend it

Works as described and restored weak signal on extended run for poe camera due to signal loss. I was at the max range (330 ft) for camera and kept experiencing signal loss. Plug and play, wish I would have know about these type of products when setting up system. Would have saved me a lot of time

We were using this to power a wireless AP that was just a touch over 300ft. The intent was to use this as insurance to make sure it stays clean. Immediately it had issues with the Cisco switch and renegotiating higher power after the initial boot, which resulted in the switch withdrawing power and creating a reboot cycle. After statically allocating a full 30W to the port it came up and ran for 2 hours and then the extender went dark and the switchport went down. I couldn't recover the Trendnet device no matter what I did so bypass it and hope for the best. I'd say this box cost me $800 in lost time trying to get it working and constant dispatches to keep it working.

My issue with rating this item is that it turned out that I didn't really need the boosting for my application, so it didn't change my signal while in use. But, while probably people in this kind of business would realize it, I didn't understand that this unit still needs a power supply--it needs to be plugged in. So the reduction in stars is for that issue not clearly explained for someone in a home use application.

Worked fantastic for boosting the signal on a long ethernet run. Was getting poor signal at external building. This device corrected it so getting strong signal now. Not using POE

Needed a solution to having a 300+ Meter rj45 run with a switch in between. After months of constant drop outs and latency, I swapped out the switch in the middle for one of these signal boosters and problem solved. I plan on adding a second one to eliminate yet another switch if problems return, which is unfortunate as it has a secondary backup RJ45 extension with no option to run a full one, but for now everything is working good.

Requires power but doesn’t come with a cord to power it. Absolute waste of time and money. Don’t buy anything from them. Worst product I’ve ever bought from Amazon. Will be returning...

Does exactly what it says it will, and allowed me to extend my ethernet connection to about 500 feet by placing this at the 230 foot mark. The operating temperature is only down to 0C, and it does seem to shut down at some point below that, but it comes back on when it warms up. Mine is in a sealed conduit box outside and with the addition of a silicon heating pad and thermostat has since handled temps down to -9 without incident. I used mine to put a SIP intercom at the end of our driveway for the gate, providing capabilities far in excess of what would be possible without this extender.

perfect job
