• CAT6 cable is recommended for increased POE delivery at distance.
• In this configuration, the LONGSPAN Max Base unit must be powered by a separate Veracity 54-57V DC power supply for maximum power.
• The LONGSPAN Max Base unit can output a maximum of 90W POE depending upon the optional PSU
• LONGSPAN Max Base can be used to power a LONGSPAN Max Camera or a LONGSPAN Max Quad at the device end
COMPATIBILITY
LONGSPAN Max models are compatible with all of the standard LONGSPAN Base 8, LONGSPAN Base, Camera and Lite models.
For full details of distances, available POE and the recommended power supplies, please see the tables in the LONGSPAN Max Application Notes and Veracity Datasheets
POE POWER BUDGET
The Veracity 54-57V DC power supplies provide maximum range and Hi-POE power budget at the camera end.
For maximum POE delivery, especially when using with a LONGSPAN Max Quad, the LONGSPAN Max Camera end device can be powered locally with a Veracity 54-57V PSU of up to 240W.
LONG RANGE ETHERNET & Hi-POE
Connect a LONGSPAN Max Base to a LONGSPAN Max Camera and then to a POE camera, or other POE device.
CAT6 cable is recommended for increased POE delivery at distance.
In this configuration, the LONGSPAN Max Base unit must be powered by a separate Veracity 54-57V DC power supply for maximum power.
The LONGSPAN Max Base unit can output a maximum of 90W POE depending upon the optional PSU.

The Power and Bandwidth your IP Camera Needs, at Exceptional Distances
LONGSPAN delivers unprecedented power and bandwidth over extreme lengths of regular Cat 5e or Cat 6 network cable, enabling a dependable connection to IP cameras and other remote network devices.
LONGSPAN is a point-to-point solution. It self-configures for the best performance. No set up or configuration is required. LONGSPAN even supports single-pair UTP cables, providing a fast upgrade solution for legacy analogue systems.
LONGSPAN offers unrestricted 100Base-TX at a phenomenal 820 metres range, with POE-equipped models delivering full-power 802.3at POE Plus at 600 metres, LONGSPAN assures reliability in the most challenging scenarios.
LONGSPAN is available in POE and data-only models. It is also available in high power Max single and Quad versions for the base and camera ends. See Documentation Tab for all datasheets including LONGSPAN Base 8, LONGSPAN Max and LONGSPAN Max Quad datasheets.
Unrivalled range, uncompromised bandwidth
IP cameras can demand peak network bandwidth of several times their average data rate while transmitting critical high-activity or low-light scenes. That's why LONGSPAN has been designed to support the full 200Mbps bandwidth required for reliable 100Base-TX Ethernet at up to 820 metres Cat 6 (or 690 metres Cat 5e).
For even more extreme distances, LONGSPAN can automatically negotiate a 10Base-T connection, supporting a range in excess of 1000 metres, over ten times the conventional limit for cabled Ethernet.
More power, much further
LONGSPAN models with POE can be powered from conventional IEEE 802.3af POE or 802.3at POE Plus and 802.3bt High Power POE switches and injectors, or Veracity's versatile power supply options can be specified for maximum range and power.
The full 25 watts required for POE Plus devices is available at up to 600 metres Cat 6 when a Veracity power supply is used, or 5 to 20 watts can be delivered from other POE sources depending on range and cable type. LONGSPAN Max High Power devices are also now available up to 90W.
Upgrade to IP, keep the UTP
Sites with legacy analogue cameras often use UTP baluns to send video over several hundred metres of twisted pair cable. LONGSPAN facilitates a simple upgrade path to IP for these installations.
LONGSPAN can automatically detect and adapt to single-pair cables, and deliver the same uncompromised 10 or 100Base-TX connection up to 820 metres, assuring predictable IP video quality each and every time.
High density, high reliability
LONGSPAN's unique, expandable mounting system permits up to 24 channels to be mounted in just 1U of rack space, with configurable rear-mount power supplies available if desired.
Smart diagnostic LEDs, including a SAFEVIEW® display on POE models, provide instant confirmation of cable-dependent power availability, and feedback of remote link status and other diagnostic information, for fast, confident installation.

Local Power at the Camera End Application Diagram:
Local power option
As shown in the diagram above, LONGSPAN Max Camera devices can be locally-powered to deliver the maximum POE (71W) to the IP camera or other POE-powered device, irrespective of LONGSPAN link distance.
In this configuration, the LONGSPAN link could be 820m and LONGSPAN Max Base would be replaced with LONGSPAN Lite as POE transmission over the link is not required. A Quad version of LONGSPAN Max is also available for the camera end with four 802.3bt compatible POE ports, allowing the connection of up to four IP devices over one LONGSPAN link.
Designed for installers
LONGSPAN devices self-configure for the best performance every time they are connected. No user setup, no DIP switch settings, and no system pairings are required.
Veracity’s SAFEVIEW® smart LED display provides instant, visible confirmation of link status, power availability, and useful diagnostic information, from each device at either end of the cable.
High-density device unit installations are supported, with up to 24 single Base devices or four LONGSPAN Base 8 devices mounted in a 1U rack space including options for rear-mounted Veracity POE power supplies.
Surge protection
LONGSPAN devices have built-in surge potection, but for long external runs additional surge protection is strongly recommended.
