Description
Omnitron Systems OmniConverter FPoE/SL Transceiver/Media Converter – Network (RJ-45) – 1x PoE (RJ-45) Ports – 1 x SC Ports – Multi-mode – Ethernet, Fast Ethernet – 10/100Base-TX, 100Base-FX – 3.11 Mile – AC Adapter – Rack-mountable, Rail-mountable, Wall MountableThe OmniConverter FPoE/SL, FPoE/S and FPoE+/S are multi- port media converters that convert 10/100BASE-T copper to 100BASE-FX fiber and support Power-over-Ethernet (PoE and PoE+). Classified as Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), they can provide power to one or two Powered Devices (PDs) using standard UTP cables that carry the Ethernet data. The OmniConverter functions as a PoE mini-switch, and supports a variety of port configurations, including single or dual RJ-45 and SFP ports.
OmniConverter PoE media converters provide network distance extension with fiber cabling, and function as PoE injectors that enable powering devices such as IP-phones, surveillance cameras and wireless access points with Power over Ethernet (PoE).
OmniConverter media converters are available in two power levels. FPoE/SL and FPoE/S models support PoE (IEEE 802.3af) and provide 15.40W of power per RJ-45 port. FPoE+/S models support PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) and provide 34.20W per port for more demanding PDs such as video conferencing equipment, PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) cameras and multi-stream 802.11n wireless access points.
Models with two fiber ports support redundant fiber uplinks for critical applications that require protection and sub 50ms restoration in the event of a fiber failure. The second fiber port may also be used for daisy-chaining multiple media converters, or it may be used as another switch port.
Configurable features include link modes which can propagate link faults from fiber to copper and copper to fiber, and a PoE power reset function, in which a loss of fiber Rx link can disable the PSE power output for 2 seconds to allow the remote PD to re-initialize.
OmniConverter media converters support fixed-fiber connectors and Small Form Pluggable (SFP) transceivers, enabling easy adaptability to different fiber types, distances and wavelengths. They support multimode, single-mode, single-mode single-fiber, in standard and CWDM wavelengths.
The compact standalone OmniConverter media converters can be tabletop mounted, wall mounted, or DIN-rail mounted using an optional DIN-rail mounting kit. They can also be mounted on a 1U 19″ rack-mount shelf. They are DC powered and available with an optional external 100 – 240VAC universal power adapter.
