Omnitron OmniConverter FPoE+/S - Fiber media converter - 100Mb LAN - 10Base-T, 100Base-FX, 100Base-TX - RJ-45 / SFP (mini-GBIC)

The OmniConverter FPoE+/S is multi-port media converter that converts 10/100BASE-T UTP to 100BASE-FX fiber and provides Power-over-Ethernet. Classified as Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), it can provide power to one or two Powered Devices (PDs) using standard UTP cables that carries the Ethernet data. The OmniConverter media converter can power PDs such as VoIP phones, wireless access points, network cameras, building access and automation equipment. It is especially useful at powering PDs in hard-to-reach locations with limited access to AC power outlets. The cost of bringing electrical power to each device is eliminated by powering the equipment through the UTP cable. Configurable features include link modes which can propagate link faults from fiber to copper and copper-to-fiber, and a PoE power reset function, in which a loss of fiber Rx link can disable the PSE power output for 2 seconds to allow the remote PD to re-initialize. OmniConverter media converters support fixed-fiber connectors and Small Form Pluggable (SFP) transceivers, enabling easy adaptability to different fiber types, distances and wavelengths.
