The metal housing features an IP20 rating and is an all-in-one construction with integrated LC fiber and RJ45 ports. The RJ45 side features a metal tab to ensure a reliable and secure fit and prevent accidental disconnections.
Network Features
The PoE media converter is designed to work seamlessly with any networking equipment that is PoE-capable and supports the 802.3af standard or higher. It comes equipped with a range of PoE protection features, including Over Voltage Protection (OVP), Over Current Protection (OCP), Over Temperature Protection (OTP), and 2KV Surge Protection. The LC slot is compatible with Single-Mode (10km) and Multimode (800m) fiber cables up to 1Gbps. A spring-loaded tab protects the port when not in use. The converter supports LFPT (Link Fault Pass-Through), allowing IT administrators to monitor and assess network connectivity at a glance based on the LED behavior.
Compatibility
This LAN-to-fiber converter is ideal for upgrading computers, switches, routers, or other equipment from copper to fiber. It suits various applications, including field deployments, industrial automation, telecommunications, broadcasting, data centers, and remote networking. Experience reliable connectivity with EMI immunity over long distances with this compact (3.2×0.8×0.7in/82.39x20x17.5mm) and power-efficient (2.5W max) dongle.
