Altronix 8-PT FIBER MEDIA CONV/BT/2SFP - NETWAYSP81BTB

Altronix NETWAYSP81BTB Concise Descriptor

Overview

The Altronix NETWAYSP81BTB is an 8-port managed Ethernet switch designed to extend network connectivity and power to IP devices over extended distances. It features eight 10/100/1000 Mbps PoE+ ports and two 1 Gbps SFP ports for fiber optic uplinks, making it ideal for large-scale surveillance deployments or campus networks where standard Ethernet cable runs are insufficient. This unit provides a robust solution for connecting remote cameras or access points back to the core network via fiber, mitigating signal degradation and interference.

Compatibility

This switch is compatible with any standard IEEE 802.3af/at compliant IP camera, access control panel, or other network device requiring PoE+ power. The two 1 Gbps SFP ports are designed to accept industry-standard SFP transceivers, allowing for flexible fiber optic uplink configurations with various single-mode or multi-mode fiber types and distances. It integrates seamlessly into existing network infrastructures and VMS platforms that support standard network protocols.

Installation Notes

The NETWAYSP81BTB requires a 12-24VDC power input, which is not included. It supports standard DIN rail mounting for easy integration into control cabinets. Each PoE+ port delivers up to 30W of power, with a total PoE power budget of 120W. Ensure the external power supply is rated appropriately for the total power draw of the switch and connected devices. The SFP ports require separate SFP transceivers, which are sold separately.
