QUICK INSTALL GUIDE

The FLEX Extender Kits are robust, long reach single port UTP solutions.  The kit 

includes a FLEX-Base, a FLEX-Link or FLEX4 adapter and a 60 Watt or 110 Watt 55V 

power supply.  The FLEX-Link and FLEX4, when connected to the FLEX-Base unit via 

2 or 4 pair UTP can deliver 100Mbps (symmetrical full duplex) with up to 50 watts of 

power with 2,000ft (610m) reach.  The FLEX offering is designed specifically to 

enable easy deployment over UTP for reaches beyond that of standard Ethernet 

eliminating the costs and disruption associated with IDF closet requirements.

NOTE:  Please see page 2 for important safety instructions

NOTE: FLEX-Link can be used with FLEX24 switch or FLEX-Base

1. Remove the FLEX-Base and FLEX-Link/FLEX4 from packaging.

2. Must ensure cable is properly terminated before connecting any FLEX product.

3. Remove all legacy equipment from the UTP cable infrastructure.

    NOTE: In order to avoid damage to endpoints, it is important that non-IP devices are not connected when you connect the FLEX-Base.

4. Connect FLEX-Base (Switch side) to downlink port on switch.

5. Connect the Network Infrastructure cable from the FLEX-Base (Adapter side) to  FLEX-Link/FLEX4 (FLEX side).

6. Using CAT5 or higher category cable, connect the endpoint to the FLEX-Link/FLEX4 (Endpoint side).

Note:  The bandwidth speed shared by the four ports (“To Endpoint”) can be determined by looking at the 

LED indicators on the RJ45 connector (“To FLEX”).  If the left side green LED activates, the bandwidth 

available is 100Mbps.  If the right side orange LED activates, the bandwidth speed available is 10Mbps.
