Not Your Average Media Converter

Introducing Our New Fiber Media Converter: Enhanced Functionality at Your Fingertips

Experience the next generation of network management with our latest FMC, designed to offer unparalleled convenience and reliability.

Innovative Dip Switches: Our new FMC features two easily accessible dip switches on its face, introducing powerful new functions to optimize your network performance.
Watch Dog Dip Switch: Never worry about device downtime again. The “Watch Dog” dip switch automatically resets the PoE power to the powered device (PD) if it stops transmitting data for more than 300 seconds, ensuring continuous operation without manual intervention.
Link Fault Pass-Through (LFP) Dip Switch: Enhance your network’s diagnostic capabilities. The “LFP” dip switch provides immediate link down status to the switch for both local and remote FMCs, allowing for faster troubleshooting and maintenance.
Seamless Transition: Prefer the original functionality? Simply turn off both dip switches, and our Gen 2 FMC will perform just like the Gen 1 version, providing you with a familiar and reliable experience.

Long-Reach Networking: Media Converter Solution

Corning 10G HPoE Media Converter

Customers who are planning for Wi-Fi 6, point-to-point wireless links, and other bandwidth-demanding technologies are looking for connectivity solutions that can grow with them as their technology needs evolve. These customers – universities, commercial buildings, campus environments, stadiums, senior living communities, resorts, and the like – need both 10G speeds and 90W PoE++ (HPoE) power output. However, current media converter options in the market are expensive and limited. Corning is solving for more bandwidth and more power at the edge with the industry’s first HPoE 10G media converter solution.

The Corning 10G HPoE Media Converter is the smallest industrial-grade 10G Ethernet media converter (from 10000Base-X SFP+ to 10G/5G/2.5G/1G/100M Base-T Copper) with 802.3bt Power over Ethernet Plus Plus (PoE++) injector function to deliver up to 90W of power output and high data transmission speed to PDs (powered devices) installed in a remote area where sufficient and reliable power input is required, providing non-blocking wire-speed performance and great flexibility for 10G Ethernet extension in harsh industrial environment. It is equipped with one 10G/5G/2.5G/1G/100M Base-T RJ45 copper interface and one 10GBase-X SFP+ fiber optic interface delivered in an IP30 rugged but compact sized strong case with redundant power system (44~57VDC).

The 10G HPoE Media Converter is ideal for wide range of applications from copper to fiber media conversion wherever up-to-10GE bandwidth is required in climatically demanding environments with wide temperature ranges.
