Extend the distance between copper PoE devices up to 1.2 miles (2 km) using multimode fiber optic cable or 62.1 miles (100 km) via single-mode fiber optic cable—and power the devices connected to the copper cable. Features » Translate 10-/100-Mbps copper to 100-Mbps fiber optic connections. » Operate as power source equipment (PSE), providing voltage to compatible 802.3af devices over ordinary twisted-pair copper cable.
Rear-panel DIP switches enable you to configure the converter quickly so you’re up and running in a matter of minutes. Simply ensure that connected nodes are set to operate in flow control mode identical to that of the media converter. No further intervention is required. And though it’s designed to work as a PoE PD, the PoE converter doesn‘t have to be used this way. It also works as a pure converter.
