Transition Networks SGPOE1040-100-F Gigabit Media Converter
Overview
The Transition Networks SGPOE1040-100-F is a Gigabit media converter designed to bridge the gap between copper Ethernet and fiber optic networks, specifically for deployments requiring Power over Ethernet (PoE) delivery. This unit supports 10/100/1000BASE-T copper connections and converts them to Gigabit fiber, enabling longer transmission distances and immunity to electromagnetic interference. It's ideal for extending network reach to devices like IP cameras or wireless access points located beyond standard Ethernet cable limitations, while simultaneously powering those devices.
Compatibility
This media converter is compatible with any standard IEEE 802.3af PoE-compliant device requiring Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. It functions as a standalone converter, accepting a 10/100/1000BASE-T connection from a switch or endpoint and outputting a Gigabit fiber signal. The included power supply ensures the converter itself is powered, and it provides up to 15.4W of PoE output to the connected device over its RJ45 port. It is designed for use with multimodem fiber optic cabling.
Installation Notes
The SGPOE1040-100-F features a DIN rail mount, facilitating straightforward installation in industrial enclosures or control panels. It requires a multimodem fiber optic patch cable for the fiber connection. The unit includes its own power supply, simplifying deployment by eliminating the need for a separate PoE injector or power source for the converter itself. Ensure the connected device does not exceed the 15.4W PoE budget.
