Veracity LONGSPAN VLS-1P-B Long-Range Ethernet & PoE Extender (Base Unit)

The Veracity LONGSPAN VLS-1P-B is a powerful base-side Ethernet and PoE extender engineered to deliver reliable IP connectivity across extreme distances. Designed for professional surveillance deployments, this LONGSPAN base unit pairs with a camera-side device to extend both data and power up to 820 meters (2,690 ft) over standard Cat5e or Cat6 cabling.

Unlike traditional Ethernet limitations, the LONGSPAN system maintains full 100Base-TX bandwidth (200Mbps full duplex) while delivering up to 25.5W PoE+, ensuring uninterrupted video performance even in high-demand environments such as transportation infrastructure, campuses, industrial facilities, and perimeter security installations.

Key Features

• Long-Range Connectivity: Extend Ethernet up to 820m at full bandwidth.
• PoE+ Power Delivery: Supplies up to 25.5W for IP cameras and edge devices.
• Plug-and-Play Deployment: No configuration or setup required.
• Flexible Cabling: Works with Cat5e, Cat6, and 1/2/4-pair UTP.
• SAFEVIEW™ Diagnostics: Real-time LED indicators for link, power, and performance.
• Extreme Durability: Operates in temperatures from -40°C to 70°C.
• Centralized Power: Supports PoE switches, injectors, or Veracity power supplies.

Designed for Scalable Surveillance Networks

The VLS-1P-B enables centralized power management and simplifies infrastructure design by allowing power to be delivered from the network core. With support for rack-mounted configurations of up to 24 units per 1U, this solution is ideal for large-scale deployments requiring high-density IP camera connectivity.

Additionally, LONGSPAN technology allows organizations to upgrade legacy analog systems to IP without replacing existing cabling—reducing cost while maximizing performance.
