MikroTik’s GPEN concept is designed to replace GPON installations with lower cost and easier-to-deploy Ethernet alternatives. GPEN doesn’t require expensive GPON OLT equipment in your server rooms, just a regular switch port. This is the cheapest way for an ISP to deliver high-speed internet to individual apartments.
MikroTik GPeR
Approx. cost: $30.00 GST incl.
Order GPeR from www.wisp.net.au
GPeR enables the extension of an Ethernet cable by an additional hop (up to 210m to another GPeR, up to 150m to regular network devices) up to 1,500m – handy for highrise and multi-apartment buildings with many floors and sections where very long Ethernet cables don’t work. Optional IP68 rated sturdy outdoor enclosure available.
Technical Specifications
- Interface: 2x Gigabit Ethernet ports
- Switch chip: Marvell E6341
- Power input: 802.3af/at or Passive PoE (24-56V)
- PoE-out: Jumper selectable Passive PoE passthrough
