Product Features
Technical Overview
Built for reliable long-distance connectivity, this converter uses 1000Base-EX technology over single-mode fiber to achieve data rates up to 1000 Mbps. It supports 10/100/1000Base-TX auto-negotiation on the copper side, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network equipment.
The integrated PoE+ port follows IEEE 802.3at standards, providing up to 30W of power to compatible devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, or VoIP phones. This eliminates the need for separate power injectors at remote locations.
Key Product Advantages
This media converter simplifies network expansion by extending copper segments over fiber without sacrificing speed or power delivery. Its dual-role design reduces hardware clutter and installation complexity.
Long-Distance Fiber Uplink
Extend network reach up to 40 km with single-mode fiber, ideal for connecting buildings, campuses, or remote equipment.
- Eliminates copper distance limitations
- Maintains Gigabit performance over fiber
PoE+ Integration
Deliver data and power over a single cable to PoE+ devices, reducing wiring and power source requirements.
- Supports up to 30W per port
- Compatible with IP cameras, APs, phones
Media Conversion Flexibility
Convert between RJ-45 copper and LC fiber seamlessly, enabling hybrid network topologies.
- Auto-negotiates copper speed
- Uses standard LC connectors
Deployment / Use Cases
This converter is ideal for scenarios where fiber backbone connectivity must interface with copper-based edge devices. It is commonly deployed in enterprise networks, industrial settings, and surveillance systems.
Typical applications include extending network connections between separate buildings using existing fiber runs, powering remote PoE+ devices over fiber links, and integrating fiber optic segments into copper-dominated networks for future-proofing.
Campus Network Extension
Connect multiple buildings across a campus with single-mode fiber, using this converter to link fiber backbones to local copper switches or PoE devices.
Remote Surveillance
Deploy IP cameras at distant locations by running fiber to the site, then using the PoE+ port to power and connect cameras without local power outlets.

FAQ
What does this media converter do?
This converter bridges copper Ethernet and single-mode fiber optic networks. It takes Gigabit signals from an RJ-45 port and converts them for transmission over LC single-mode fiber, or vice versa, extending connectivity up to 40 km while maintaining full Gigabit speed.
How many PoE+ ports does it have, and what can they power?
It has one PoE+ RJ-45 port that complies with IEEE 802.3at, delivering up to 30W of power. This port can power devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, VoIP phones, or other PoE+ compatible equipment, eliminating the need for separate power sources at remote locations.
What type of fiber and connectors does it support?
It supports single-mode fiber with LC connectors, operating at a 1310 nm wavelength. Single-mode fiber is ideal for long-distance runs up to 40 km, and LC connectors are commonly used in fiber optic networking for their compact size and reliable performance.
What is the maximum distance supported over fiber?
The converter supports distances up to 40 kilometers (approximately 24.85 miles) over single-mode fiber when using 1000Base-EX technology. This makes it suitable for connecting remote sites, campuses, or industrial locations far beyond typical copper Ethernet limits.
