Product Features
Technical Overview
This media converter operates at 850 nm wavelength on multi-mode fiber, compatible with 50/125 µm and 62.5/125 µm cable specifications. The PoE+ RJ-45 port delivers IEEE 802.3at-compliant power over Ethernet, supporting devices like wireless access points, IP cameras, and VoIP phones while transmitting data.
Network conversion occurs at line rate with no performance degradation, supporting auto-negotiation and auto-MDI/MDIX on the copper side. The fiber interface uses LC connectors for reliable optical coupling, suitable for distances up to 550 meters on OM2 fiber.
This section brings together practical product details such as Total Number of Ports, Network (RJ-45), Number of PoE+ (RJ-45) Ports, Media Type Supported, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
This converter extends network infrastructure efficiently by combining PoE+ delivery with fiber conversion in a single device. It eliminates the need for separate power injectors and media converters, simplifying cable runs and reducing equipment clutter.
Dual Media Support
Converts between optical fiber and twisted pair cabling, enabling network expansion across different building materials and longer distances where copper limitations apply.
- Minimizes signal loss over fiber runs
- Supports both 50/125 µm and 62.5/125 µm fiber
PoE+ Integration
The integrated PoE+ port powers compliant devices directly, reducing installation complexity and electrical outlet requirements at remote locations.
- Delivers up to 30W per port
- Powers IP cameras, wireless APs, and VoIP phones
Flexible Deployment
Compact form factor supports standalone placement on desks or shelves, plus wall mounting for space-constrained environments like wiring closets and equipment racks.
- Includes mounting hardware
- Small footprint conserves space
Deployment / Use Cases
Deploy this media converter wherever network segments transition between copper and fiber, particularly when remote devices require both data connectivity and power. Typical installations include extending networks between buildings, connecting floor switches across different cabling types, and powering edge devices in distributed environments.
In surveillance systems, place the converter near camera clusters to deliver PoE+ over copper while backhauling video feeds over fiber to the network core. For wireless networks, use it to power access points in hard-to-wire areas while maintaining high-speed uplinks via fiber. The TAA compliance makes it suitable for government and educational procurement requiring Trade Agreements Act adherence.
Building-to-Building Links
Connect networks across separate structures using fiber for lightning protection and distance, with PoE+ for powering devices at the remote end.
Industrial & Outdoor Installations
Deploy in environments where fiber's immunity to EMI and longer reach advantages over copper, while powering sensors or cameras locally.
Physical Profile
The converter measures 6.10 inches wide by 5.87 inches deep by 1.57 inches high (155 × 149 × 40 mm), with a weight of 1.65 pounds (748 g). Its low-profile design fits easily on shelves or mounts vertically on walls using included hardware. The housing provides adequate ventilation for continuous operation without active cooling.
