The Gigabit Passive Ethernet Repeater (GPeR) is part of MikroTik's new GPEN (Gigabit Passive Ethernet Network) concept, which aims to replace GPON installations with lower cost and more easy to deploy ethernet alternatives. The GPeR unit allows to extend ethernet cable by additional hop (< 100 - 150 m to regular network devices, and up to 210 m to another GPeR unit) up to 1,500 m. This is great to use in highrise buildings, multi-apartment buildings with many floors and sections, where very long ethernet cables might be a problem.

Benefits

• The GPeR unit allows you to extend ethernet cable by an additional 1,500M
• Great for use with highrise buildings, multi-apartment buildings that have many floors and sections
• Your maximum allowed length of CAT6 ethernet cable between GPeR and a power source is 150M
• Your maximum allowed length of CAT6 ethernet cable between two GPeR devices is 210M
• If the cable destination does not support PoE-in powering, the PoE passthrough can be disabled by manually removing jumpers
