AXIS T8129 Power over Ethernet Extender
The smart solution for covering distances
With AXIS T8129, Axis’ network video products can be installed at greater distances than 100 m (328 ft) from one
another. By connecting an AXIS T8129 for every extra 100 m (328 ft) of cable, both Ethernet and PoE can be extended
to even greater distances; depending on camera model and power source. AXIS T8129 does not require any additional
power supply and the connected network camera is fed by a single PoE switch or midspan, simplifying installation. It
offers two Ethernet ports, both configured automatically for link speed, duplex and crossover and the full-rate network
throughput is maintained.
> More than 100 m (328 ft) Ethernet and PoE connection
> Compatible with IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at
> No additional power supply is required
> Full-rate network throughout the whole extended distance

AXIS T8129 PoE Extender
The smart solution for covering distances
Extend a PoE connection beyond the 100m limit
IEEE 802.3af, IEEE 802.3at and High PoE 60 W compatible
Ease of installation with no additional power supply
Compatible with all Axis network video products
Indoor use
Ethernet has a limited cable length between the switch and the camera of 100m (328 ft.). When needed to cover a longer distance, a switch is normally used as a repeater, or optical fiber may be used. To overcome this distance limit, network installers can simply connect an AXIS T8129 PoE Extender in-line with the Cat-5e or Cat-6 cable, and forward the rest to the camera. Dependent on midspan and camera type, the connection in total can be between 200-400 meters (656-1312 ft.).
Compatibility
AXIS T8129 PoE Extender is compatible with all Axis network video products with PoE, and supports both IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at. Check in the Typical set-up section for connection examples with Axis network video products.
Range
Range depends on the power required, so a 25 watt PTZ dome camera may be located 200 m (656 ft.) away using a single AXIS T8129. Or, the cable length to a regular 5 watt network camera may extend up to 400 m (1312 ft.), by fitting three AXIS T8129 at 100 m (328 ft.) intervals. Check in the Range tab for information about Maximum distances.
