Product Features
Technical Overview
This media converter operates on 100Base-FX network technology, ensuring compatibility with standard Fast Ethernet infrastructure. It supports both twisted pair and optical fiber media, with a dedicated SC port for multi-mode fiber connections at 1310 nm wavelength.
The integrated PoE port functions as a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), providing up to 15.4W of power to compatible devices such as IP cameras or wireless access points. This eliminates the need for separate power injectors or local power sources at remote endpoints.
Key Product Advantages
By combining media conversion with PoE power delivery, this converter streamlines network deployments where both distance extension and remote device power are required. Its support for multi-mode fiber with SC connectors ensures compatibility with common fiber infrastructure.
Extended Network Reach
Converts copper Ethernet to fiber optic, enabling reliable data transmission over distances up to 2 kilometers without signal degradation.
- Eliminates EMI/RFI interference common in copper runs
- Maintains 100Mbps throughput across extended fiber links
Integrated PoE Power
The built-in PoE PSE port delivers both data and power over a single cable to connected devices.
- Reduces installation complexity and cost
- Supports PoE-compatible endpoints like security cameras
Deployment / Use Cases
This media converter is ideal for extending network segments beyond the 100-meter limitation of standard copper Ethernet. It converts signals from RJ-45 twisted pair to SC multi-mode fiber, enabling reliable connectivity across buildings, campuses, or industrial environments.
Common applications include connecting remote IP surveillance cameras with PoE requirements, linking network switches between separate facilities, or integrating fiber backbones into existing copper-based networks. The 2-kilometer reach makes it suitable for medium-distance deployments where fiber's noise immunity and distance capabilities are advantageous.
Surveillance System Extension
Deploy PoE security cameras at remote locations while maintaining network connectivity through fiber conversion.
Building-to-Building Connectivity
Connect network equipment across separate structures using fiber for reliable, high-bandwidth links.
