MikroTik GPER DECT Repeater Black

The MikroTik GPeR unit extends Ethernet cable reach by adding an additional hop, allowing network runs up to 1,500 m in total. It is useful in high-rise and multi-apartment buildings or other multi-floor facilities where very long Ethernet cable runs are required. Between the GPeR and a power source or router the maximum permitted CAT6 length is typically up to 100 m (depending on cable quality; high-quality cable can allow up to 150 m). Between two GPeR devices the maximum CAT6 length is up to 210 m, depending on cable quality. If the destination device does not support PoE-in, PoE passthrough can be disabled by manually removing all jumpers.

Advantages

The GPeR repeater provides a practical method to extend Ethernet segments without introducing active network devices at every intermediate point. It supports passthrough power delivery and can accommodate longer overall cable distances when used in series, while maintaining a compact black form factor with two RJ-45 ports for simple integration into existing cabling. Manual jumper removal gives control over PoE passthrough when connecting non‑PoE equipment.

Suitable for

• Extending Ethernet runs in high-rise residential or commercial buildings
• Connecting network segments across multiple floors or sections
• Situations where direct long-distance wiring to a router/switch is impractical

Key specifications

• Model: MikroTik GPeR (MPN: GPeR)
• Category: Wireless Range Extender / Ethernet repeater
• Ethernet ports: 2 x RJ-45 (LAN)
• Colour: Black
• DC output current: 2 A (for DECT/POE powered devices as specified)
• Maximum CAT6 length to power source/router: typically up to 100 m (up to 150 m with high-quality cable)
• Maximum CAT6 length between two GPeR units: up to 210 m (depending on cable quality)
• Maximum extended reach (with hops): up to 1,500 m total

How to use

Install the GPeR unit into the Ethernet run at the point where an additional hop is required. Connect one RJ-45 port to the upstream switch or router and the other to the downstream segment or next GPeR unit. Ensure CAT6 cable quality and lengths conform to the limits given: keep runs to a router/power source within the recommended 100 m (or up to 150 m for high-quality cable) and between GPeR units within 210 m. If the connected device does not support PoE-in, remove all PoE jumpers on the unit to disable PoE passthrough before powering the system.

Recommendations

Use high-quality CAT6 cable for longer runs and test link stability after installation. Plan cable runs and repeater placement to stay within specified segment lengths, and disable PoE passthrough when connecting non‑PoE equipment to prevent power conflicts.
