The FLEX-Link and FLEX-C adapters enable extended Ethernet and PoE reach
beyond traditional distances using 1, 2 or 4 pair UTP infrastructure. The
adapters, when used with the FLEX Switch or FLEX-Base, deliver 10/100Mbps
(symmetrical, full duplex) and PoE (up to 50W) over 1- (needs local power), 2-,
or 4-pair UTP/STP with up to 2,000ft (610m) reach The FLEX offering is
designed specifically to enable easy deployment over UTP for reaches beyond
that of standard Ethernet eliminating the costs and disruption associated with
IDF closet requirements.
