DIGITUS 10/100/1000Base-TX (PoE) to 1000Base-FX Industrial Media Converter

The DIGITUS DN-652104 is a robust industrial media converter designed to bridge 10/100/1000Base-TX copper networks with 1000Base-FX fiber optic networks via an SFP slot. It supports PoE (Power over Ethernet) with up to 30W output, making it ideal for powering remote devices such as IP cameras or wireless access points. Housed in an IP30 aluminum enclosure, it operates reliably in extreme temperatures from -40°C to +75°C, suitable for harsh industrial environments.

Advantages

This converter ensures seamless integration of copper and fiber segments, extending network distances up to 80 km (depending on SFP module). PoE capability eliminates the need for separate power cabling, reducing installation costs. Redundant DC power inputs (48-57V) enhance reliability, while DIP switch configurable LFP (Link Fault Pass-Through) aids in troubleshooting.

Suitable for

• Industrial automation and control systems
• Surveillance systems with PoE cameras
• Remote network extension in factories, warehouses, and outdoor installations
• Connecting copper switches to fiber backbone networks

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use a compatible 1000Base-X SFP module (sold separately). Ensure the power supply provides 48-57V DC with sufficient current for both the converter and PoE load. This device is a reliable choice for industrial networks requiring long-distance fiber connectivity and PoE power delivery.
