Typical Applications

Model CL1314MDE ruggedized multi-drop Ethernet extenders are ideal for delivering drop add Ethernet links to multiple remote locations that are beyond the 328-foot (100-meter) distance limit of Ethernet. The 15.3 Mbps throughput eliminates bandwidth concerns previously experienced with other legacy copper wired transmission technologies.

The CL1314MDE includes several user configurable line rates so that a user will get a consistent link, even in noisiest environments. Using existing voice-grade copper pairs or legacy serial circuits eliminates the expense and hassle of installing low capacitance or fiber cable.
