Running Ethernet and PoE beyond the traditional 100-meter limit is no longer a challenge for modern smart buildings, large campuses, parking facilities, outdoor surveillance, wireless networks, and IoT infrastructure.
The new Leviton PARADIGM™ Extended Distance System, powered by Stadion™ outdoor cable, is redefining what’s possible in structured cabling and edge connectivity.
Key validated performance highlights:
✅ 1G Ethernet up to 200–225 meters
✅ 2.5G Ethernet up to 165 meters
✅ Support for up to 100W PoE (Type 4)
✅ Reliable operation in harsh outdoor environments up to 60°C
✅ Designed for IP cameras, Wi-Fi access points, access control, smart city, and IoT deployments
✅ Reduced need for additional IDF cabinets, switches, and infrastructure costs
The PARADIGM™ system combines ATLAS-X1™ connectivity with rugged Stadion™ Cat6 OSP cable engineered for moisture, sunlight, and long-distance outdoor deployments. It delivers validated, warrantied performance for extended-distance structured cabling applications where standard Ethernet limitations are no longer practical.
For smart buildings, security integrators, ELV consultants, and network infrastructure designers, extended-distance copper networking is becoming a critical solution for:
• Smart City infrastructure
• Outdoor surveillance systems
• Stadiums and parking structures
• Industrial & warehouse connectivity
• Campus-wide Wi-Fi deployment
• Access control systems
• EV charging network communications
• Remote IoT edge devices
As AI-driven buildings and connected infrastructure continue to expand, high-performance structured cabling solutions with long-reach Ethernet and PoE capability will play a major role in next-generation network architecture.
