AXIS T8129 Indoor PoE Extender, 5025-281
Description
AXIS T8129 Indoor PoE Extender
The AXIS T8129 PoE Extender is a compact indoor repeater that carries both data and Power over Ethernet an extra 100 m down the cable. It plugs in between a PoE source and a camera, needs no power supply of its own, and works with Axis network video products that use PoE. Because the camera is powered through the extender, a single unit can put a 25 W PTZ dome camera 200 m (656 ft) from the switch, and three units chained at 100 m intervals can take a 5 W camera out to 400 m (1312 ft).

Range at a Glance
| Powered device | PoE switch or 15 W midspan (802.3af) | PoE+ switch (802.3at) | 30 W midspan | 60 W midspan |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Low power (PoE Class 1 or under 6 W) | 300 m (984 ft) | 400 m (1312 ft) | 400 m (1312 ft) | 400 m (1312 ft) |
| Medium power (PoE Class 1-2 or under 12 W) | 200 m (656 ft) | 200 m (656 ft) | 300 m (984 ft) | 300 m (984 ft) |
| Full power PoE or PoE+ (over 12 W) | Not supported | Not supported | 200 m (656 ft)* | 200 m (656 ft)* |
| Custom High PoE (60 W injector devices) | Not supported | Not supported | Not supported | 200 m (656 ft)* |
Distances are the maximum from the network switch when one extender is added for every 100 m (328 ft), over 24 AWG or heavier Cat 5e or Cat 6 cable. * Use 23 AWG or heavier cable (typically Cat 6). Actual figures depend on operating conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions About AXIS T8129
What does the AXIS T8129 do?
It repeats the data signal and forwards PoE, so a camera can sit farther from the switch than the standard 100 m Ethernet limit.
How far can I extend a camera?
It depends on the camera power and the PoE source. A 25 W PTZ dome camera can sit 200 m (656 ft) from the switch with one extender, and a 5 W camera can reach 400 m (1312 ft) with three extenders placed at 100 m intervals.
Does it need its own power supply?
No. The camera is powered through the extender from a single PoE switch or midspan.
Which PoE standards does it support?
IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at, and Axis lists it as compatible with High PoE 60 W sources.
Can I use it outdoors?
No, the AXIS T8129 is an indoor unit. For outdoor installations see the AXIS T8129-E Outdoor PoE Extender.
What is the warranty?
The Axis datasheet lists a 3-year warranty.
