Overview
This document contains instructions necessary for the installation
and operation of the Perle 10/100 and Gigabit (10/100/1000)
Advanced Powered Ethernet Extenders. These Ethernet
Extenders enable Ethernet communication across a single pair of
copper wires such as 2-wire twisted pair telephone wire or coax
cable using VDSL2 technology for extended distances.
The Perle Advanced Power Ethernet Extenders are available in L
and E models such as the eXP-1S110E and the eXP-1S110L. In
order to use the advanced power functions, an L model must
always be used in conjunction with an E model. These Ethernet
Extenders can also be used with other Perle Ethernet Extenders
if advanced power functionality is not required.
In a typical installation the L model would be at a central site and
the E model at a remote site and the L model would power the E
model via the VDSL line.
L Models Characteristics
The L models, such as the eXP-4S1110L-RJ are typically used in
the central location and have the following characteristics.
•Can provide power over the VDSL line and communicate with
a remote Extender (E or PE model) over the same VDSL line.
•Can communicate with any other Perle Ethernet Extender if
remote powering is not required.
•Can draw power from the Terminal Block connector, Barrel
connector or from the Ethernet port 1 (if connected to a
compatible PoE Power Sourcing Device (PSE) such as a
switch).
E and PE Models Characteristics
The E or PE models such as the eXP-4S110E-RJ are typically
used in the remote location and have the following
characteristics.
•Can be powered by and communicate with an L model over
the VDSL line. Alternatively, they can draw power from the
Terminal Block or Barrel connector.
•They can communicate with any other Perle Ethernet Extender
if power by VDSL link is not required
•Can act as a PSE to power equipment connected to the
Ethernet port.
