DIP Switch
The Ethernet Extender provides a selectable 2-position DIP switch. When
switching to “Master”, it supports PtP and PtMP, meaning it can be one master
and one slave with RJ45/RJ11 connector, or one master and more than one
slave with BNC T connector.

DIP Function
Master The LRE-104 is functioned as a Master.
Slave The LRE-104 is functioned as a Slave.
By default, the 2-position DIP switch is set in the “Master”
position. To operate, slide the DIP switch to the “Slave” posi-
tion, and unplug the adaptor to power off the device, and plug
it back.
2.4 Power Information
The LRE-104 requires 12V DC, 1A power input, which conforms to the bundled
AC adapter. Should you have the issue of power connection, contact your local
sales representative.

In some areas, installing a surge suppression device may also
help to protect your Ethernet Extender from being damaged by
unregulated surge or current to the Ethernet Extender or the
power adapter.

5. Applications
The Ethernet Extender does not require any software conguration. Users can
immediately use any feature of this product simply by attaching the cables
and turning the power on. There are some key limitations on the Ethernet
Extender. Please check the following items.
5.1 Point-to-Point Application -- LAN to LAN Connection
One set of the Ethernet Extender could be used to link two local area networks
that are located in dierent places. Through the UTP cable or Phone wire, it
could set up a 100Mbps backbone, but one Ethernet Extender must be Master
and the other one is Slave.

Connecting Standalone PC
Refer to the following procedures to set up the LRE-104 LAN to LAN
connection.
1. [LAN1] Set the LRE-101/LRE-101C in LAN 1 to be in the Master mode
from the DIP switch
2. [LAN2] Set the LRE-104 in LAN 2 to be in the Slave mode from the DIP
switch
3. Power on the Master and Slave at both sides by connecting its power
source.
4. Master LED will illuminate correspondingly.
5. Connect UTP cable, Phone wire or coaxial cable from LAN1 LRE-101/LRE-
101C to UTP or BNC port of the LAN2 LRE-104.
6. LNK LED will blink to illuminate at both units.
7. Connect the LRE-104 Ethernet LAN port to other network device via regular
Cat5 UTP cable.

the DIP switch on the rear panel.
2. Power on by connecting its power source.
3. Power LED will illuminate.
4. Connect coaxial cable to the Long Reach ports of LRE-101C and LRE-104
units.
5. LNK LED will illuminate and blink.
6. Connect Ethernet port to IP cameras via regular Cat5, 5e or 6 cable.
7. Install the NVR and monitor and connect to one Ethernet switch.
8. You can get data transmissions from all IP cameras.

7. Troubleshooting
SYMPTOM:
LNK LED does not light up after wire is connected to the Long Reach port.
CHECKPOINT:
Please note you must use one LRE-104 in Master mode and the other LRE-104
in Slave mode to make connection.
SYMPTOM:
TP LED does not light after cable is connected to the port.
CHECKPOINT:
1. Verify you are using the Cat5e or better cable with RJ45 connector to
connect to the port.
2. If your device (like LAN card) supports auto-negotiation, please try to
manually set at a xed speed of your device to solve this issue.
3. The LRE-104 and the connected device’s power are on or not.
4. The port’s cable is rmly seated in its connectors in the switch and in the
associated device.
5. The connecting cable is good and the correct type.
6. The connecting device, including any network adapter, is functional.

8. FAQs
Q1: What is the best distance for LRE-104?
A1: In order to guarantee the stability and better quality of network, we
suggest the distance should not exceed 700m (Cat.5 UTP) and 1200m
(Phone wire).
