Network Media Converter PLANET IGUP-805AT

The PLANET IGUP-805AT is an industrial Gigabit media converter that combines a 1000BASE-X fiber uplink with a 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet port and an integrated IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ injector. It delivers up to 95 W of PoE output to power remote devices while providing gigabit data transmission over fiber for long-distance, stable links. The unit accepts dual 12–56 V DC inputs for redundancy and supports operation in harsh environments with an IP30 rugged case and an operating temperature range from -40 to 75 °C.

Advantages

The IGUP-805AT extends PoE deployment range by converting fiber to copper while maintaining up to 1000 Mbps throughput and Store-and-Forward switching with IEEE 802.3x flow control to reduce packet loss. It supports SFP modules (100BASE-FX/1000BASE-X) for distances up to 120 km depending on module choice. The device is IEEE 802.3bt compliant, providing up to 95 W of power and backward compatibility with 802.3af/at devices via a legacy DIP-switch setting, allowing mixed deployments without software configuration. Built-in Link Fault Passthrough (LFPP) disables PoE ports when the fiber link fails and helps alert administrators to link issues. The power system includes 12–48 V to 56 V boost technology, enabling use with common DC supplies and dual power inputs for higher availability.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Powering and connecting PTZ and speed-dome IP cameras at long distances

How to use

Install an appropriate SFP module into the SFP slot for the required fiber type and distance, then connect the fiber uplink to the core network. Plug an Ethernet cable from the RJ-45 port to the powered device (PD). Provide DC power to the unit using one or both 12–56 V inputs for redundancy. Configure the DIP switches to select Legacy mode if compatibility with 802.3af/at devices is required and enable LFPP where link-fault passthrough behavior is desired. No software configuration is necessary for basic PoE and media conversion functions.

Recommendations

Use SFP modules that match the fiber type and distance required by your installation (single-mode/multi-mode). Ensure power source capacity and cabling meet the PDs’ power requirements when using full PoE++ output. For critical applications, connect both DC inputs for redundancy and enable Link Fault Passthrough to detect fiber link failures promptly.
