Ethernet is traditionally used for backhaul and core networks such as corporate backbones, data centers, and server farms. Ethernet has replaced ATM, FDDI, and Token Ring LAN technologies and has become the default plumbing pipe of the Internet. Ethernet however, comes with a standard 100 meter limitation. The following delineates the 5 common and not-so-common methods used to bypass the standard Ethernet limitation.

Since fiber supports longer distances than copper, fiber media converters, traditionally deployed in pairs, extend Ethernet links by converting Ethernet cable runs from copper to fiber, and reverting a fiber connection to copper.

Single-mode fiber cables have a smaller core (about 8 uhm) in comparison to multimode fiber.

UTP Ethernet Extender convert Ethernet to DSL and revert signals back to Ethernet. Following similar deployment schemes as fiber media converters, these units can be deployed in pairs.

Coaxial Extenders can extend Ethernet connections up to 1,000 meters using legacy coaxial cabling and can provide high-quality video transmission.

Coaxial Extenders can be a highly scalable solution when paired with coaxial switches such as the LRP-822CS.

Wireless Ethernet extenders conveniently offer Ethernet extension without the need to accommodate unsightly wires. Wireless Ethernet Extension can be accomplished using two wireless access points (WAPs) to form a wireless bridge.

Cellular extension relies on a network of cell towers to transmit signals. Using cellular routers, system integrators can extend Ethernet signals to virtually any location that receives a cell phone signal.
