Product Features
Technical Overview
Built for Gigabit Ethernet environments, the converter supports 1000Base-SX over fiber and 10/100/1000Base-T over copper, ensuring compatibility with modern network equipment. The 1310 nm wavelength on multi-mode fiber provides efficient signal transmission for distances up to 2 km, ideal for campus or building extensions.
The PoE port functions as a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), enabling power delivery to PoE-enabled devices like IP cameras or wireless access points. This eliminates extra cabling and power adapters, streamlining installation in remote or hard-to-reach locations.
Key Product Advantages
This media converter combines fiber extension with PoE power delivery, offering a dual-purpose solution that reduces hardware clutter and deployment costs. Its support for both twisted pair and optical fiber media allows flexible network design across mixed environments.
Extended Reach
Extend network connections up to 2 kilometers using cost-effective multi-mode fiber, overcoming copper cable distance limitations of 100 meters.
- 1310 nm wavelength for reliable signal integrity
- SC connector for standard fiber compatibility
PoE Integration
The built-in PoE PSE port powers remote devices directly, eliminating separate power supplies and simplifying installations in areas without easy power access.
- Supports PoE-enabled endpoints like cameras or APs
- Reduces cabling and infrastructure complexity
Deployment / Use Cases
Deploy this converter in scenarios requiring long-distance network extensions with power delivery, such as connecting buildings across a campus or linking remote surveillance equipment. It is suitable for environments where fiber optic cabling is already installed or planned for future-proofing.
Common applications include extending Ethernet networks to outbuildings, powering PoE devices in industrial settings, or integrating fiber backbones into existing copper-based infrastructures. Its AC/DC power option allows use in varied electrical environments, from office racks to field deployments.

FAQ
What does this media converter do?
This converter bridges copper Ethernet and fiber optic networks by converting Gigabit Ethernet signals from an RJ45 port to 1000BASE-SX multi-mode fiber. It extends network distances up to 2 kilometers and includes a PoE PSE port to power connected devices, making it a dual-purpose solution for extending and powering network endpoints.
What type of fiber and connectors does it support?
It supports multi-mode fiber with SC connectors, using a 1310 nm wavelength for signal transmission. This configuration is common for short to medium-distance fiber runs, providing a cost-effective way to extend Gigabit Ethernet beyond the 100-meter limit of copper cables.
How does the PoE port work?
The PoE port is a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) port that delivers power to PoE-enabled devices, such as IP cameras or wireless access points, over the Ethernet cable. This eliminates the need for separate power supplies at remote locations, simplifying installation and reducing cabling complexity.
What is the maximum distance supported?
The converter supports distances up to 2 kilometers (1.24 miles) over multi-mode fiber. This extended reach is ideal for connecting buildings or devices across larger areas where copper Ethernet would be insufficient due to its 100-meter limitation.
