Key Features of Black Box PoE PSE Gigabit Media Converter

• PoE PSE Capability – Powers 802.3af devices via copper port using 48-VDC over UTP, ideal for security cameras and wireless access points without nearby outlets.
• Gigabit Conversion – Transparently extends Ethernet beyond 100m CATx limit to multimode fiber at 1000Base-SX speeds.
• Auto Negotiation & MDI-X – Copper port auto-adjusts speed/features for easy cabling; simplifies installations.
• LED Indicators – Show PoE power feeding and interruptions for quick status checks.
• Link Fault Management – LFP disables TX on signal loss; FEF stops link pulses to prevent data loss over invalid links.
• Power Protections – Overcurrent, undercurrent detection, minimum load sensing, PSE MDI enable/disable.
• RoHS Compliant – Environmentally friendly with WEEE compliance.
• Wall Mountable Design – Compact for flexible deployment in network environments.

Comprehensive Technical Specifications

Advanced Network Reliability & Power Features

• Link Fault Pass-Through (LFP) – Monitors RX ports on fiber and copper; disables TX signal on loss to maintain link integrity.
• Far-End Fault (FEF) – Ceases link pulses on fiber RX loss, prompting synchronous stop from partner to avoid invalid data transmission.
• PoE Power Management – Includes overcurrent protection, undercurrent detection, minimum load sensing, and PSE MDI power enable/disable for safe operation.
• Deployment Flexibility – Uses existing UTP for data and power, reducing costs in areas with limited electrical access.
