Transition Networks M/E-PSW-FX-02(SC)-NA Mini 10/100BASETX to 100BASEFX Switch
Overview
The Transition Networks M/E-PSW-FX-02(SC)-NA is a compact media converter designed to bridge the gap between copper Ethernet and fiber optic networks. It's ideal for extending network reach in environments where standard Ethernet cable lengths are insufficient, such as connecting remote surveillance cameras or access points back to a central network closet. This unit specifically converts 10/100BASE-TX copper signals to 100BASE-FX multimode fiber signals, supporting distances up to 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) via its SC connectors.
Compatibility
This switch is compatible with any standard 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet device requiring a fiber optic uplink. It functions as a transparent media converter, meaning it does not require specific VMS or NVR compatibility beyond standard network protocols. It is suitable for use with IP cameras, wireless access points, and other network devices that utilize 10/100 Ethernet ports and need to connect to a fiber backbone. The SC multimode fiber connector ensures compatibility with standard SC-terminated fiber optic patch cords.
Installation Notes
The M/E-PSW-FX-02(SC)-NA is designed for simple plug-and-play installation. It requires a standard 12-48 VDC power input (power adapter sold separately). Ensure the correct polarity is observed when connecting the power source. The unit is intended for indoor use in controlled environments. Fiber optic connections should be clean and free of debris before mating to prevent signal degradation or connector damage. The maximum operating distance is 2 kilometers over multimode fiber.
