MikroTik GPeRx4 802.3bt PoE Extender 3-Port PoE-Out IP68

The MikroTik GPeRx4 is an outdoor-grade PoE extender designed to maximise the value of a high-power 802.3bt PoE uplink by splitting it into three independent 802.3af/at PoE-out ports. This makes it possible to power multiple downstream devices — such as access points, IP cameras, or other PoE-powered equipment — from a single 802.3bt PoE source, reducing the need for additional cabling runs or power supplies.

It is important to note that the output ports are isolated and communicate only with the first (uplink) port. The GPeRx4 is not a switch — it is a PoE extender. Traffic from the downstream ports does not pass between those ports directly.

Power can be supplied via 802.3bt PoE-in (48–57 V) or through a 2-pin terminal input (24–57 V), offering flexibility for different installation scenarios. Maximum total PoE output current is 2.0 A across all three output ports, with per-port current limits of 0.7 A (low voltage) and 0.6 A (high voltage). The device itself consumes just 4 W without attachments, with a maximum total consumption of 115 W under full PoE load.

Housed in a robust IP68-rated enclosure and tested for operation from -40°C to 70°C, the GPeRx4 is built to withstand demanding outdoor conditions including full water submersion. It ships with a hose clamp for pole or pipe mounting.

Network management is provided through SwOS Lite, accessible via web browser. Features include interface monitoring, VLAN support, traffic shaping, SNMP reporting, and fault detection for GPEN links — giving network administrators meaningful visibility and control over connected devices.

The GPeRx4 runs on a 200 MHz CPU with a Marvell 88E6341 switch chip and 64 KB of FLASH storage.
