LONGSPAN Max Quad integrates a four-port 90W POE switch with a long-distance network extender for Cat5e or Cat6 cable. LONGSPAN Max Quad delivers four ports of 802.3bt high-power POE, ideal for external PTZ IP camera installations.
LONGSPAN Max for Maximum Power
LONGSPAN Max™ devices are high power versions of the successful LONGSPAN™ long-distance Ethernet transmission extenders. They support the 802.3bt standard which specifies the highest power permissible on standard network cable (90W). See the POE Reference Table opposite for classes and power levels. Max versions deliver POE for even the most power-hungry external IP PTZ cameras at considerable distances.
Unrivalled Range
LONGSPAN products are designed to connect IP cameras at ranges of up to 820 metres (with Cat6 cable), supporting the 200Mbps aggregate bandwidth required for full-duplex 100Base-TX Ethernet. LONGSPAN devices therefore ensure perfect image quality at all times, even at the longest cable ranges. See the LONGSPAN Max Data Range Table for details.
LONGSPAN Max Quad
A LONGSPAN Max Base device is used with a LONGSPAN Max Quad device which has an integrated 4-port POE switch to achieve a LONGSPAN link for up to four POE IP cameras (see diagram below). Whilst LONGSPAN Max devices achieve the same data range as a standard LONGSPAN unit (820 metres), higher power POE delivery is only possible to just over 600 metres. Max Quad can also be used with standard LONGSPAN Base units depending on the power level required and transmission distance. LONGSPAN Max Quad should be used for all multi camera-end connections as this model has superceded the original standard LONGSPAN Quad device.
Local Power Option
As shown in the diagram above, LONGSPAN Max Quad Camera devices can be locally-powered to deliver the maximum POE (71W) to the IP camera or other type of POE-powered device, irrespective of LONGSPAN link distance. This can be ideal for external IP PTZ cameras. In this configuration, the LONGSPAN link could be 820 metres and LONGSPAN Max Base would be replaced with LONGSPAN Lite as POE transmission over the link is not required. A single-channel version, LONGSPAN Max Camera, is also for the camera end with a single 802.3bt compatible POE port, allowing the connection of one high power IP device over a LONGSPAN link.
Designed for Installers
LONGSPAN devices self-configure for the best performance every time they are connected. No user setup, no DIP switch settings, and no system pairings are required. Veracity's SAFEVIEW™ smart LED display provides instant, visible confirmation of link status, power availability, and useful diagnostic information, from each device at either end of the cable.
POE System Design
Power budget calculations can be complex for larger POE transmission systems. Please refer to the LONGSPAN Application Notes or contact Veracity support team for further information.
