What do you mean by “pop”?  You mean Ethernet port gets fried during storms?

 

I don’t suppose they dropped conduit with a pull tape in that trench?

 

I’m amazed someone would pay to trench 500 feet of Cat5, but not put some fiber 
in there, or a way to pull something in the future.

Some devices will handle things over 100m and some won’t.  

I think that original 100m limit was based on coaxial based collision domain 
constraints.

We have a customer who trenched 500 foot of cat5 to an outbuilding, routers pop 
for "some reason" 

I wonder if an extender would help with that

Are you trying to exceed 100 meters?  Is there a good reason not to use fiber + 
DC power?

Google for ethernet extenders with PoE.
They exist.  Never used one.  I think up to 1000'
