Network Media Converter PLANET IGTP-815AT

The PLANET IGTP-815AT is a compact industrial-grade Gigabit PoE+ media converter that connects a 100/1000BASE-X SFP fiber link to a 10/100/1000BASE-T 802.3at PoE+ copper port. Housed in an IP30-rated metal case, it operates in extreme temperatures from -40 to 75 °C and delivers long-range, stable data and power transmission for harsh environments and space-constrained installations.

Advantages

The IGTP-815AT supports IEEE 802.3at PoE+ to provide up to 36 W of power to a remote 802.3af/at powered device while forwarding Gigabit Ethernet data. Its SFP slot accepts 100BASE-FX/1000BASE-X modules for fiber links up to 120 km, extending PoE deployment beyond the 100 m UTP limitation. The unit includes Link Fault Passthrough (LFP) features (LLCF and LLR) for interactive link detection, and rugged ESD and surge protection (±6 kV contact, ±8 kV air discharge, ±6 kV surge immunity) to increase reliability in electrically harsh environments.

Suitable for

• Extending PoE-powered devices such as outdoor wireless access points and IP cameras
• Connecting campus or service-provider fiber segments to PoE copper endpoints
• Industrial installations requiring wide temperature range and compact footprint

Key specifications

• Maximum data transfer rate: 1000 Mbit/s
• Ports: 1 × 10/100/1000BASE-T PoE+ RJ-45, 1 × 100/1000BASE-X SFP
• PoE standard and budget: IEEE 802.3at PoE+, up to 36 W output
• Maximum UTP distance for PoE: 100 m; fiber SFP range: up to 120 km (depending on module)
• Operating temperature: -40 to 75 °C
• ESD and surge protection: ±6 kV contact, ±8 kV air, ±6 kV surge
• Housing: IP30 metal case; mounting: wall or DIN rail
• Weight: 0.231 kg

How to use

Install the IGTP-815AT in the desired enclosure or mount it on a DIN rail or wall. Insert a compatible SFP module into the SFP slot and connect the fiber link. Connect the PoE+ RJ-45 port to the powered device using a standard UTP cable (up to 100 m). Power the unit according to the product manual; the device is Plug and Play and requires no software configuration. Use the built-in DIP switch to enable or disable Link Fault Passthrough (LFP) if link monitoring is needed.

Recommendations

Use compatible SFP modules rated for the required distance and wavelength, and ensure PoE budget requirements of connected devices do not exceed the 36 W output. For reliable long-term operation in outdoor or industrial locations, mount the converter in a protected enclosure and follow grounding and surge protection best practices.
