INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL

CLFE(X)EO(C,U) Series

ETHERNET OVER COPPER EXTENDER

WITH PASS-THROUGH POE TO 15 WATTS

The ComNet

™

CopperLine® Ethernet over copper line supports up to sixteen

channels of 10/100Mbps Ethernet with Pass-through PoE over twisted pair cable

(CAT-5, UTP), or over coaxial cable. The single channel units may be powered by a

PoE switch or the included power supply. Four, eight, and sixteen channel units

operate from local power. These units provide the ultimate flexibility for extending

a powered device (PD) over long distance copper. DIP switches are provided for user-

selection of local or remote, 10 or 100Mbps, and 1 pair or 4 pair (UTP) settings.

Bi-color (Red/Green) LED indicators are provided for rapidly ascertaining equipment

operating status. Table 2 on Page 9 describes the LED indicators for each light on

the unit.

The CLFE8EO(C,U) and CLFE16EO(C,U) are 1RU rack mountable units. The

CLFE4EO(C,U) units are interchangeable between stand-alone or card mount

configurations, or may be DIN-rail mounted by the addition of ComNet model

DINBKT1 or DINBKT4 adaptor plate. The CLFE1EO(C,U) units are stand-alone, or

may be DIN-rail mounted by the addition of ComNet model DINBKT4 adaptor. See

Figures A through C on Page 11 for mounting instructions.
