AD-net’s PoE type Fiber Media Converters are PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment) type Fiber Converters and PoE injectors in the same device. While you use standard UTP Cat5/6 Eethernet cables to carry data only, now you can also provide power to PDs (Powered Devices) that support the IEEE 802.3af PoE standard (15.4W of power) or the IEEE 802.3at PoE standard (30W of power), such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, or Wifi routers that accept POoE power as a PD device.

PoE media converter supports autosensing (auto negotiation), meaning that you can connect any of 10/100/1000M devices directly to the ethernet port and it will automatically adapt speed. However, when older legacy 10M equipment does not link correctly, we have provided a feature that enables you to force down the speed down to 10M using a dip switch on the back panel.

Media Converters are transparent to VLAN tagged packets, jumbo frames and full and half duplex operation are supported, and since it comes with the power supply in set, you are getting a plug-and-play device.
