Product Features
Technical Overview
The converter supports Gigabit Ethernet with network technologies including 10/100/1000Base-TX over twisted pair and 1000Base-FX over fiber. It accommodates both twisted pair and optical fiber media, allowing for cost-effective copper deployments up to 100 meters and extended fiber runs for greater distances.
The integrated PoE+ port delivers power over Ethernet to connected devices, simplifying installation by reducing the need for separate power sources. The open SFP slot accepts standard SFP modules, providing flexibility to match specific fiber types and distances as required.
Key Product Advantages
This media converter offers practical benefits for network expansion and media conversion tasks. Its compact design and straightforward operation make it suitable for both new installations and upgrades to existing infrastructure.
Simplified Integration
Connect different media types within a single network segment without replacing existing cabling, reducing deployment complexity and cost.
Power Efficiency
The PoE+ port delivers both data and power over a single twisted pair cable, eliminating the need for additional power outlets near connected devices.
Deployment / Use Cases
The Axiom media converter is ideal for scenarios where network segments need to transition between copper and fiber media. It supports high-speed data transfer and extended reach, making it suitable for office networks, industrial settings, and campus environments.
Common applications include connecting fiber backbone links to copper-based edge devices, extending network distances beyond copper limitations, and integrating PoE-powered devices like IP cameras or wireless access points into fiber-optic networks.
