PoE Media Converter with Fiber Connectivity and Power over Ethernet
The NETSTAR NS-MCFE-SF20-SC13T-PO is a versatile PoE media converter that links fiber to copper while providing Power over Ethernet (PoE) to devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, wireless access points, and other PoE-enabled devices. This innovative converter integrates power and data into one unit and delivers them over a single cable, eliminating costs for additional AC wiring and reducing installation time. Perfect for remote locations, it frees devices from the restrictions of power outlet locations on walls, ceilings, or any unreachable place.
PoE Output for Powering Remote Devices
The NETSTAR NS-MCFE-SF20-SC13T-PO features a PoE OUT Ethernet port that delivers whatever voltage (12VDC to 48VDC) is applied to the DC jack directly through the Ethernet port. This flexibility allows you to power a wide range of PoE-enabled devices without the need for additional power adapters at each device location. Simply provide the appropriate voltage to the DC jack, and the converter powers your remote devices over the same Ethernet cable used for data transmission.
Single Fiber Technology for Cost-Effective Deployments
The NETSTAR NS-MCFE-SF20-SC13T-PO utilizes single fiber technology, allowing bidirectional communication over a single fiber strand using different wavelengths. This significantly reduces fiber infrastructure costs compared to dual-fiber solutions, making it an economical choice for service providers and enterprise networks.
Two Models Available for Different Fiber Networks:
NS-MCFE-SF20-SC13T-PO:Β Tx: 1310nm, Rx: 1550nm (PoE OUT)
NS-MCFE-SF20-SC15T-PO:Β Tx: 1550nm, Rx: 1310nm (PoE OUT)
Select the appropriate model based on your existing fiber network infrastructure to ensure seamless compatibility.
Advanced Features for Professional Deployments
The NETSTAR NS-MCFE-SF20-SC13T-PO supports a variety of advanced features, giving service providers the power to quickly and profitably deploy Ethernet services:
