Hi Sir,
What if I use TPS2373 in 500m cable condition? Is there any setting or component needs to be noticed?
Thank you.

Hello Chentsu,
I would not recommend going beyond the 100m officially supported by the 803.2 standard, but if you do decide to, your biggest enemy will be the considerable transmission losses across the Cat5e cable.
No additional components will be needed on the PD side, but you will need to supply more power on the PSE side. You will need to configure the class resistors on the PD so it will be 1 or 2 classes above your desired power level. Again, I would not recommend this.
I'll loop in a PSE expert who can give more advice about the PSE side.
Thanks,
Thomas A.
