An Ethernet extender is a device that uses existing standard cables, such as Cat5, to extend the length of a network beyond the normal Ethernet range of 100 meters. Ethernet extenders allow for longer distances between two Ethernet devices, such as two computers, by using signal amplifiers. Ethernet extenders are also used to bridge two networks together, such as a LAN and a WAN or two LANs in different buildings, by using signal repeaters.
