Corning’s Portfolio of Long-Reach Solutions

Corning’s portfolio of long-reach solutions includes the ActiFi® Hybrid Cable, the CIP (Corning Intelligent Power) Solution, and fiber-fed devices such as the 10G HPoE Media Converters or the end-to-end Touchless Networking Solution.

10G 90W HPoE Media Converter

The media converter provides a cost-effective solution to extend individual ports to devices at the edge, as it is interoperable with existing copper or fiber switches and is compatible with Corning’s end-to-end fiber, power hardware, and connectivity solutions.

Our New Fiber Media Converter (FMC) features two dip switches on its face, introducing new functions. The “Watch Dog” dipswitch will reset the PoE power to the powered device (PD) if it stops transmitting data for more than 300 seconds. The “Link Fault Pass-Through” (LFP) dipswitch provides link down status to the switch for both local and remote FMCs. If both dipswitches are turned off, the Gen 2 FMC will perform just like the Gen 1 version.

ActiFi Hybrid Cable Long-Reach Flexible Cable Infrastructure

Corning’s ActiFi Hybrid Cable delivers data and power to the very edge of your network by using both fiber and copper conductors. Reaching more than 600 m, this cable is ideal for Long-Reach Solutions and remote powering needs for your network.

ActiFi Hybrid Cable

Corning Intelligent Power (CIP)

The Corning Intelligent Power Units are compact, scalable, low-voltage power supplies (Class 2, 57 VDC/100 W) that achieve ultimate port density to deliver more power with less space.

ActiFi® Fiber Cable

As buildings get smarter, they demand more power from our networks. Corning Remote Power can deliver up to 800W of power to the edge (over 600 m) to support small to medium power loads such as IP devices and smart lighting. Using our ActiFi® cable, you can bring power and fiber to the edge of your network in one cable.
