Now it's easier than ever to add fiber to your network, no matter if your network is spread across a business campus, a large industrial site, or great distances, and/or subjected to temperature extremes.

These hardened media converters can be powered up one of four ways and operate in temperature extremes from -13 to +158° F (-25 to +70° C).

Good things, small packages.

The media converters are easy to install (literally plugand-play), tiny enough to fit in anywhere, and very economical.

Use them to bring fiber to the desktop or add fiber segments to your network to gain extra distance-up to 24.9 miles (40 km) with single-mode fiber.

Twice the conversion power

An Industrial MultiPower Media Converter enables you to connect 10-Mbps and 100-Mbps twisted-pair network segments to fiber optic cabling. It's both a media and datarate converter with 10/100 auto-negotiation on the twistedpair port. The fiber port operates at 100 Mbps.

You can also choose Gigabit models to link 1000BASE-TX twisted-pair network segments to 1000BASE-LX fiber optic cabling.

All Industrial MultiPower Media Converters have an HDX/ FDX function for half- and full-duplex autosensing.

Installation is easy

Just connect an Industrial MultiPower Media Converter to the RJ-45 connector on your PC's 10- or 100-Mbps Ethernet port using CATx cable, then connect fiber optic cable to the other side of the media converter.

What's more, these tiny converters tuck unobtrusively behind your PC.

Go the distance with fiber

The converters using multimode fiber support distances of up to 984.2 feet (300 m) or 1.2 miles (2 km)-enough distance for most LAN applications. For more extensive campus applications, choose single-mode or single-mode, single-strand models for long-distance runs of up to 6.2, 12.4, or 24.8 miles (10, 20, or 40 km).

More power to you.

Industrial MultiPower Media Converters can be powered one of four ways: by an external AC power supply included with each unit, by using 5-50-VDC terminal block power, by an optional USB Power Adapter Cable that plugs into a PC's USB port, or by an optional rackmount PowerTray.

Plus, Industrial MultiPower Media Converters are designed for use in harsh industrial environments.

The AC power supply is a universal external transformer that requires a nearby AC power outlet. The PowerTray provides power for up to 18 converters in only 1.5U of rack space. Rackmount ears are included.

You can even use multiple power options at the same time to provide maximum redundancy and ensure that your mission-critical applications remain up and running. For instance, you can connect a converter to a 5-50-VDC power source while also using AC adapter power and USB bus power. Then, if any one of these power sources fails, the other sources will continue to supply power to the converter seamlessly

The converters come with DIN clips, so you can attach them to a DIN rail. When installing multiple Industrial MultiPower Media Converters on a DIN rail, use one DC input source, then cascade from one DC block to the next until you reach the maximum current available.
