Overview

The Patton Electronics CL2301E/CC/4ETH/DC is a robust, light industrial Ethernet extender designed to leverage existing copper infrastructure for reliable network connectivity. This unit features four 10/100Base-TX shielded RJ45 Ethernet ports, auto-sensing for half or full-duplex operation, and supports 802.1Q VLAN tagging, ensuring transparent data transmission. It operates over a single twisted pair (2-wire) CopperLink interface, supporting 19-26 AWG wire gauges, and offers an RJ45 female connector for the line connection. The CL2301E/CC/4ETH/DC is engineered for demanding environments with an extended operating temperature range of -40 to 85°C and includes corrosion protection. Power is supplied via a 12-48VDC input, providing flexibility for industrial power systems. This extender overcomes the standard 100-meter Ethernet limitation, enabling connections over significantly longer distances. While specific maximum distances are dependent on wire gauge and line rate, Patton's CopperLink technology is known for extending Ethernet up to 2 miles (3.2 km) at symmetrical rates surpassing 22 Mbps, though this specific model's catalog data indicates a 12.5 Mbps line rate and 10 Mbps data rate for its CopperLink interface, with surge suppression up to 20kA (8/20μs) via a gas tube. Its compact dimensions (Standalone: 1.5H x 4.13W x 3.75D in. / 3.81H x 10.5W x 9.53D cm) and weight (0.4 lbs / 0.18 kg without power supply) make it suitable for various industrial installations. This device is compliant with FCC Part 15 Class A, EMC Directive 89/336/EEC, and Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC, carrying a CE Mark. It is an ideal solution for extending Ethernet to remote industrial sites, factory floors, or any location where new cable installation is cost-prohibitive or impractical.
