Black Box Gigabit PoE+ Media Converter – 10/100/1000BASE-T to SFP

This tough media converter is the ideal way extend your network over fiber and also power a PoE device. Use it to link to faraway PoE devices such as IP security cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones. The media converter features two autosensing 10/100/1000 UTP ports plus an SFP port that can be customized to virtually any interface – including multimode fiber, single-mode fiber, or Gigabit copper – through the use of a standard SFP. Both UTP port supports 802.3at Power over Ethernet, enabling it to power a PoE+ PD device. The Gigabit PoE+ Media Converter can be powered three ways: from an AC power supply (LGC5210-PS, included), via the DC power jack, or via the DC terminal block. When used with DC power to the terminal block, the converter supports an extended operating temperature range of +32 to +158 degrees F (0 to +70 C). The converter requires only one power source to power both the converter and a PoE+ device; you can position the PoE+ device up to 100 meters (328 feet) away from the converter, enabling flexible placement of wireless APs and security cameras. A pair of input terminals and output terminals enables you to cascade DC power in a DIN rail installation (optional DIN Rail Clip (LXC-DR) is sold separately).
