Network Media Converter MikroTik FTC11XG

The FTC11XG is a weatherproof IP55 Fiber-to-Copper converter that converts 10 Gigabit SFP+ fiber links to RJ45 10 Gigabit Ethernet. It supports low power consumption (9–10 W) and can be powered either via a standard DC jack or through 802.3 af/at/bt 43–57 V PoE-In. The package includes a PoE injector, a power supply, and mounting accessories for ceiling installation.

Advantages

FTC11XG combines robust outdoor protection with full switch functionality provided by SwOS Lite and an integrated switch chip. This allows interface management, monitoring, VLAN handling, SNMP reporting, traffic shaping, and advanced packet filtering using Access Control Lists. The device delivers 10 Gigabit fiber-to-copper conversion with flexible powering options and low energy use.

How to use

Mount the FTC11XG on a ceiling using the supplied hardware, connect the SFP+ fiber module to your fiber link and the RJ45 port to your copper network. Power the unit either with the included power supply via the DC jack or with the supplied PoE injector connected to a 43–57 V PoE source. Access SwOS Lite through the management interface to configure VLANs, monitoring, traffic shaping, SNMP parameters, and ACL rules as required for your network setup.

Recommendations

Place the device where the IP55 enclosure provides protection from rain and dust but allows adequate airflow. Use compatible SFP+ modules and ensure PoE source meets 43–57 V requirements. Configure ACLs and VLANs according to security and performance policies and monitor SNMP reports to maintain stable operation.
