Description
Intellinet 561952 Ultra Long‑Range Outdoor PoE++ Extender Kit
Overview
The Intellinet 561952 is a high-performance outdoor PoE extension kit designed to dramatically expand the reach of PoE links—up to 1,000 m (3,280 ft)—while maintaining data connectivity and delivering power to downstream devices.
This kit includes two modules (one “in” unit and one “out” unit) that must be used together to achieve the maximum range. It supports IEEE 802.3bt (4‑pair PoE, “PoE++”) at the input side (up to 95 W) and provides up to 30 W output for 802.3at-compliant devices, or 15 W for 802.3af devices, depending on length and speed constraints.
Its enclosure is rated IP67 for dust and waterproof protection, making it suitable for outdoor or harsh environment deployments. Typical usage includes extending PoE feeds to remote IP cameras, wireless bridges, or access points without needing separate AC power lines.
Tri-Tek Electronics is an authorized distributor of Intellinet products and ensures full manufacturer warranty coverage, best pricing, and factory support.
Key Features
-
Extends PoE + data up to 1,000 m (3,280 ft) over Cat5e / Cat6 cable
-
Compatible with IEEE 802.3bt (input) and 802.3at / af (output) standards
-
Up to 30 W output at 100 Mbps over moderate distances
-
At lower speeds or longer distances may provide reduced output power (e.g. ~15 W at 10 Mbps)
-
IP67-rated weatherproof housing for outdoor installations
-
No external power supply needed—draws power via PoE on the “in” side
-
Auto-sensing short-circuit / overload / high-voltage protection
-
Plug-and-play installation (no configuration required)
Distance vs. Power / Throughput Chart

*Output power estimates assume a PoE++ source delivering sufficient input (up to 95 W) and high-quality cabling. Real-world performance will vary based on cable type, terminations, and environmental conditions.
Example Installation Scenario
A remote IP surveillance camera is located 900 meters (2,950 feet) away from the main network switch. Using the Intellinet 561952 kit, a Cat6 cable is run from a PoE++ switch to the “In” module, and then from the “Out” module to the camera. The extender supports this long-range connection without the need for an AC power source near the camera. Although the data link may reduce to 10 Mbps and power delivery to 15 W, it remains sufficient for many low-power PoE camera models, offering a cost-effective and reliable solution for long-range outdoor deployments.
Thanks to the rugged IP67-rated enclosures, both modules can be mounted in pole enclosures or junction boxes without requiring additional environmental protection, making installation simple and durable.
