Competitive Positioning

Patton’s CopperLink Auto-Rate Ethernet Extenders are the perfect fit for simple, cost-effective high speed Ethernet Extension. They allow customers to take advantage of the existing copper infrastructure to connect remote LAN’s across distances and at speeds previously unthought-of. The auto-rate fea- ture ensures the highest speed is achieved on each connection, and the plug-n-play operation ensures they are up and running in seconds. Add in the auto-sensing full/half duplex 10/100Base-T Ethernet port and the integrated crossover switch to make setup even easier, and the value of these Ethernet Extenders can’t be beat!

•Auto-Rate Feature

The advanced auto-rate algorithm automatically determines the best possible rate for each connec tion and sets up each extender without any need for user interface.

•Plug-and-Play

Just unpack the extenders, plug them into each end of the extension, power them up, and they are up and running. It doesn’t get any easier!

•High Speed/Long Reach

These Ethernet Extenders provide the best combi- nation of speed and distance seen anywhere in the industry !
