The Gigabit PoE Media Converters transparently connect copper to fiber while providing Power over Ethernet ( PoE ) to standards-based PoE and PoE+ compliant devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones and wireless access points. The PoE Media Converters are classified as Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE). While using standard UTP cabos that carry Ethernet data, the PoE media converters can also provide power to one or two Powered Devices (PDs). This PoE media converter supports both the IEEE 802.3af PoE standard (15.4W of power) and the IEEE 802.3at PoE+ standard (30W of power).

Compufox 10/100/1000 PoE Ethernet to Fiber Converters provide an economical path to extend the distance of an existing network with fiber cabling. At the same time they function as PoE injectors to power devices like IP phones, video conferencing equipment, IP cameras and Wi-Fi devices over copper UTP cabling. Multi-port PoE media converters enable a variety of flexible network designs. They can feature single or dual RJ-45 ports to power one or two PD’s per converter and single or dual fiber ports.

The Gigabit PoE Media Converter is a Single-Port, End-Span IEEE 802.3at High Power over Ethernet converter designed specifically to satisfy the growing demand for higher power required network equipment such as PTZ (Pan, Tilt & Zoom) network cameras, PTZ speed dome, color touch-screen VoIP telephones, multi-channel (IEEE 802.11a / b / g / n) wireless LAN access points and other network devices that need higher power to function normally. The High Power over Ethernet converter series is an ideal solution to delivering data and power to network devices directly via the RJ45 Port interface without the need for installing extra power outlets and electrical cabling.

Applications

1, Connect 10/100/1000 IP Cameras to Gigabit Backbone

Extend the reach to IP cameras using fiber media converters. Security cameras are typically installed in remote locations throughout a facility. For cameras that are in the ceiling or other inaccessible areas like rooftops, light poles, along fences, pipelines and transit routes, the cost of bringing electrical power to each camera is eliminated by powering the equipment through the UTP cabo using a PoE media converter. For cameras with Pan-Tilt-Zoom ( PTZ ) that may require higher power, this PoE+ media converter can supply up to 30 watts of power. PoE+ may also be required for cameras used in cold environments that feature de-icers and blowers.

Fiber is run from an existing data closet to an area with access to power. A PoE Media Converter can be powered by either 48vDC or standard 100 to 240 AC power. The media converter is attached to the power supply and the fiber cabo. Copper (UTP or STP cabo) Ethernet can be extended another 100 meters to the IP camera. The PoE Media Converter is converting the data from fiber to copper, adding power and transmitting it to the security camera.

To simplify cabling, multiport PoE media converters enable chaining, with a fiber uplink port and a fiber downlink port, of the fiber between media converters ( also known as a bus architecture ).

A second option is to have redundant fiber links for installations requiring fiber facility protection. There is an active fiber port and a protection fiber port that can support a fiber failure switchover of less than 50 milliseconds. The PoE+ media converter supplies power to the camera, and has power protection from an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) battery back-up. In the event of a fiber cut and a loss of power, the camera continues to send data on the protection link.

2, Connect 10/100/1000 Wireless Access Points to Gigabit Backbone

Extend the reach to wireless access points ( AP ) using fiber media converters. When a company deploys a wireless network in their office or large warehouse, APs need to be set up throughout the facility to ensure complete coverage for reliability. The network manager will likely need to extend further than the 100 meters allowed by copper cabo to reach many of the APs.

For APs that are in the ceiling or other inaccessible areas, PoE media converters can also provide standard PoE power including pre-standard power for those access points that were deployed prior to ratification IEEE 802.3af. For wireless access points as those containing dual radios requiring more than 15.4 watts of power, PoE+ models delivering up to 30 watts are also available.
