Description
The Patton Electronics CL1101 Power over Ethernet (PoE) Ethernet Extenders provide Ethernet communication and (depending on the model) power across 2-wire, 24-AWG twisted-pair; Cat 3; Cat 5e/6/7; or
coaxial
cable:
• The CL1101 transmits at 10 or 100 Mbps.
• The two endpoints must both operate at the same bandwidth.
• The CL1101 operates only in full-duplex mode.
• The actual data rate and power delivered by the CL1101 depends on line quality.
The CopperLink 1101 enables Ethernet connectivity over previously installed copper infrastructure. The solution breathes new life into circuits deployed for such traditional non-IP applications as RS232/485 controls,
alarms, CCTV, analog phones, intercom speakers, and others.
Figure 1 shows a typical application.

Local Customer Endpoint (LCE)—Customer equipment that is typically closer to the centralized location.
This is often times a server or a network switch.
Remote Customer Endpoint (RCE)—Customer equipment that is typically far away from other devices. It is
often a phone, camera, or other small device.
Local (L) Ethernet Extender—The extender closer to the Local Customer Endpoint.
Remote (R) Ethernet Extender—The extender closer to the Remote Customer Endpoint.
Data
Data may be transmitted full duplex at 10Mbit or 100Mbit. LCE and RCE must be able to be at the same data
rate.
Both the LCE and the RCE Ethernet ports should support at least 10Mbit full duplex, and be configured identically (see figure 2).
Figure 2. Data path
Power
Power across the system as a whole must be defined before details about each unit can be understood.
The Local Customer Endpoint should not have power on the line in all cases. The Ethernet port on the Local
Ethernet Extender is not a PoE port. It is a 10/100 Ethernet port. If IEEE80.2af/at PoE is applied to it, the
power negotiation between the ports will fail.
If PoE power is applied to the Local Ethernet Extender’s
Ethernet port, equipment damage may occur.
CAUTION
Power-across-link application
The Local Customer Endpoint has no power on the Ethernet port.
The Local Ethernet Extender is powered using a PoE voltage external power source (approximately 54VDC).
This power supply's positive and negative leads are internally connected to data wires through some circuitry.
The chassis is not directly connected to the power supply so it is possible to use positive, negative, and isolated

NoteIt is possible to apply power to the Remote Ethernet Extender via the barrel
jack with no negative side effects.
The Local Ethernet Extender is powered by a 12 VDC power supply. It is not used to transmit power across the
extension link.
The Remote Ethernet Extender is powered using a PoE voltage external power source (approximately 54
VDC). Shortly after it is powered, it will provide power using an IEEE802.3at/af port.
The Remote Customer Endpoint will receive negotiated 802.3at/af PoE power (see figure 4).

1. For coaxial products, the negative input of the power supply is tied to the chassis. This means negative voltage
would short to the chassis and possibly cause damage to devices or human injury. This is due to the nature of
the coaxial cable (the outer conductor is exposed and must be used for GND). For this reason, only positive
or isolated voltages are recommended when using coaxial.

Power Transmission
The following is intended for educational purposes only; consult
with a licensed electrician before applying this information in
practice.
This section details generic information on power transmission and how it affects the CL1101. The following
is basically a crash course on the theory and application.
General Background
There are several important factors to consider when dealing with power transmission to a remote load. The
factors that should be understood are ampacity (current carrying capability of the wire), insulation of the wire,
voltage being transmitted, current being transmitted, resistance of the wire, and resistance of the load (end
point).
-
The physical limitations of the wire are ampacity and insulation of the wire. The maximum current is the
amount of current that can be safely per regional electrical codes. The insulation of the wire will determine
Power Transmission16
Page 17
CopperLink 1101 Line Power PoE Extender User Manual 1 • General information
what voltage the wire can tolerate before it breaks down. This information is provided by the wire manufacturer.
Given a certain power consumption of a remote unit and given a certain voltage being applied, it's possible to
calculate the amount of current that the unit should expect to receive. Unfortunately, sending any current (at
all) will cause the voltage to sag by the time it reaches the remote device (due to the voltage drop along the
wire). This in turn increases the current draw (to overcome the drop in voltage) causing the voltage to drop
even further! So this is a bit of a self-defeating cycle. It does balance out, but in the end it means there is a max
imum amount of power that can be transmitted given a voltage being applied and the resistance of the wire.
This is why relatively high (though still safe) voltage is chosen for use in PoE applications.
As a result, when transmitting power over long distances, it is the voltage being applied and the resistance of the
wire that limits the maximum power that can be transmitted.
Wire Specifics
Wire comes in all shapes and sizes. It can be thick and made from copper (good wire for power transmission) or
thin and made from aluminum (poor wire for power transmission).
There is also a hybrid sometimes used called copper clad aluminum. This is aluminum wire that is surrounded
by a layer of copper. This is reasonable for some data transmission because high frequency signals tend to travel
on the outer surface of the wire (skin effect), but DC power uses the entire wire. As a result, this makes for a
rather poor power conductor.
-
Additionally, hotter environments typically increase the resistance.
Some figures at room temperature (-20 °C, 68 °F) follow:
• 24 AWG solid copper wire: ~0.09 ohms per meter
• 28 AWG solid copper wire: ~0.21 ohms per meter
• 24 AWG CCA (copper clad aluminum) wire: ~0.13 ohms per meter
• 28 AWG CCA wire: ~0.32 ohms per meter
Since the circuit must complete a round trip, the values actually double. Although some of the numbers don't
appear too different, the effect can be significant.
A real world example:
An endpoint consumes 10W (including the extender) of power. If you are sending 54 VDC, what is the maximum distance this power can be sent?
For transmitting the maximum amount of power across a particular medium, the maximum power transfer
theorem suggests that half of the power is lost in the endpoint while the other half is lost in the wire. This effec
tively means seeing a 27 V drop across the wire (when using the Patton PoE power supply) when it is sending
the maximum amount of power. We also need to take into account the (2x) resistance for completing the loop.
This is also a best case result. If we account for approximately 30% inefficiency (and applying algebra on
Ohm's law equations), we get the following equation:
-
Max distance in meters = 0.7 x (voltage sent)2/(2 x one way wire Ohms/m x power needed)
Or more concretely for 24 AWG solid copper, (0.7 x 27 x 27)/(2 x 0.09 x 10) = 284 meters
If you had more wire pairs, then further distances are possible, just multiply by the number of wire pairs.
Power Transmission17

CopperLink 1101 Line Power PoE Extender User Manual 1 • General information
CL1101 specifics
The above example is completely hypothetical but is realistic. Unfortunately, it is often difficult to determine
the resistance of pre-existing cables. To make things easier, the unit has the ability to approximate the resistance
of the wire and determine what the maximum amount of power could be available on extender's PoE port.
This information is only available on the Remote unit however. The Local unit merely states how much total
power is being sent down the line.

Warranty Service and Returned Merchandise Authorizations (RMAs)
Patton Electronics is an ISO-9001 certified manufacturer and our products are carefully tested before shipment. All of our products are backed by a comprehensive warranty program.
NoteIf you purchased your equipment from a Patton Electronics reseller, ask your
reseller how you should proceed with warranty service. It is often more con
venient for you to work with your local reseller to obtain a replacement.
Patton services our products no matter how you acquired them.
Warranty Coverage
Our products are under warranty to be free from defects, and we will, at our option, repair or replace the product should it fail within one year from the first date of shipment. Our warranty is limited to defects in workmanship or materials, and does not cover customer damage, lightning or power surge damage, abuse, or
unauthorized modification.
Out-of-Warranty Service
Patton services what we sell, no matter how you acquired it, including malfunctioning products that are no
longer under warranty. Our products have a flat fee for repairs. Units damaged by lightning or other catastro
phes may require replacement.
Returns for Credit
Customer satisfaction is important to us, therefore any product may be returned with authorization within 30
days from the shipment date for a full credit of the purchase price. If you have ordered the wrong equipment or
you are dissatisfied in any way, please contact us to request an RMA number to accept your return. Patton is
not responsible for equipment returned without a Return Authorization.
