Transition Networks SGPOE1040-110-NA Gigabit Media Converter
Overview
The Transition Networks SGPOE1040-110-NA is a Gigabit media converter designed to bridge the gap between copper Ethernet and fiber optic cabling, specifically for deployments requiring Power over Ethernet (PoE) delivery. This unit allows you to extend network reach beyond standard Ethernet cable lengths using multi-mode fiber, while simultaneously powering a connected PoE-capable device. It's ideal for extending network connectivity to remote IP cameras, wireless access points, or other edge devices where both data and power are needed and standard copper runs are insufficient. The included power supply simplifies deployment by providing immediate power for the converter itself.
Compatibility
This media converter is designed to interface with standard Gigabit Ethernet network infrastructure. It supports IEEE 802.3af PoE (15.4W), making it compatible with a wide range of standard PoE-powered devices such as many IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points. It connects to standard multi-mode fiber optic patch panels or directly to multi-mode fiber optic transceivers on the other end of the fiber run. For specific network switch compatibility, ensure your switch supports Gigabit Ethernet and provides an appropriate fiber optic port (e.g., SFP module) or RJ45 port for the converter's copper side.
Installation Notes
The SGPOE1040-110-NA supports DIN rail mounting, common in industrial and telecommunications cabinets, allowing for secure and organized installation. Ensure the ambient operating temperature is within the specified range for reliable operation. The included power supply must be connected to a suitable AC power source. When connecting fiber, verify that both the converter and the remote device use the same fiber type (multi-mode) and wavelength for successful communication.
