Mini Fast / Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Media Converter
10/100/1000Base-T PoE+ RJ-45 Port + 100/1000Base-X SFP Slot
Description
This Gigabit Ethernet Stand-alone Mini Media Converter provides cost-effective media conversion between 10/100/1000Base-T ports and 100/1000Base-SX/LX ports. With its fixed configuration, deployments are just plug-and-play, and its small size makes it ideal for locations where space is limited. Operating at Layer 2, the data link layer, this converter not only converts copper to fiber, but it also provides rate conversion allowing legacy 10/100 copper devices to connect to 1000Base-SX/LX fiber.
In addition to providing copper to fiber conversion, this converter is also classified as Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), meaning it combines data received over the fiber optic link with 56VDC input power to provide power and data to a Powered Device (PD) over the twisted Pair cable, while complying with the IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at PoE+ standards. This allows the user to take advantage of the benefits of fiber cabling, along with the benefits of Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) technology.
Supporting PoE allows this converter to send data and power to devices like VoIP Phones, Security Cameras, and Wireless Access Points, especially if they need to be located in remote areas of your network that can only be reached with fiber optic cabling.
