The OmniConverter GPoEBT/S are multi-port IEEE 802.3bt 60 and 100 watt PoE Ethernet media converters that feature one or two uplink ports and one or two 10/100/1000 RJ-45 PoE user ports.
The GPoEBT/S provides up to 100W PoE per RJ-45 user port and supports frame sizes up to 10,240 bytes. The uplink ports can be fixed fiber or SFP receptacle or 10/100/1000 RJ-45 copper ports.
The GPoEBT/S supports Directed Switch mode, which directs multicast traffic (such as video) only to the appropriate uplink port, preventing the multicast video traffic from flooding other network ports.
Models with two fiber port support redundant fiber uplinks for critical applications that require protection and restoration in the event of a fiber failure. The second fiber port can also be used to cascade multiple media converters.
Models with two fiber ports also support Dual Device mode that enables the module to operate as two independent and isolated Ethernet media converters. In Dual Device mode, the GPoEBT/S provides separate and independent data traffic paths between the two uplink ports and two user ports.
Configurable features include link modes and a PoE power reset function that enables the attached PD device, such as a camera or access point, to be re-initialized remotely, eliminating the need for costly truck rolls to remote PD sites. When a problem with a PD is detected, the fiber port on the module can be disconnected, triggering the PoE power reset function.
Link modes can be configured to propagate loss-of-link faults to managed devices, immediately notifying administrators of network outages.
The module support fixed-fiber connectors and 100Mbps or 1000Mbps SFP transceiver receptacles, enabling easy adaptability to different fiber types, distances and wavelengths. The media converters also support 10/100/1000 SGMII or 1Gbps SERDES copper transceivers and 100Mbps and 1000Mbps standard, CWDM and DWDM fiber transceivers in a variety of distances and fiber types.
The GPoEBT/S can be tabletop mounted, wall mounted, or DIN-rail mounted using an optional DIN-rail mounting kit. They can also be mounted on a 1U 19" rack-mount shelf. They are available with DC input power via terminal connectors or an external 100 to 240V AC power adapters.
