PLANET IGTP-80xT Industrial Gigabit Media Converter combines Ethernet media conversion (from 1000BASE-X to 10/100/1000BASE-T) with 802.3at Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) injector to deliver both up to 30 watts 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. Its 1000BASE-X fiber optic uplink port provides long distance, high speed and stable data transmission to a remote core network. The special and convenient power system of the IGTP-80xT supports 12~48V DC power input or 24V AC power input for power redundancy and operational flexibility. Being able to operate under the temperature ranging from -40 to 75 degrees C and with an IP30 rugged case, the IGTP-80xT can be placed in almost any difficult environment. Fiber-optic Link Capability Extends the Range of Network Deployment The maximum distance between a PoE PSE (power sourcing equipment) and PD via Ethernet cable is 100 meters. To extend the PoE deployment range, the IGTP-80xT is integrated with fiber interface for farther distance applications. The IGTP-80xT’s fiber connector type is as follows: - IGTP-802T Fiber SC connector supporting 1000BASE-SX multi-mode and transmission distance up to 550m. - IGTP-802TS Fiber SC connector supporting 1000BASE-LX single-mode and transmission distance up to 20km. - IGTP-805AT SFP slot supporting 100BASE-FX/1000BASE-X multi/single mode SFP module and transmission distance up to 120km (Varying on SFP module). With the long fiber distance support, the IGTP-80xT still sustains the transmission performance as high as 1000Mbps. It works in the high-performance Store and Forward mechanism, and also can prevent packet loss with IEEE 802.3x flow control and the LFP (Link Fault Passthrough) function in the DIP switch design. Furthermore, it can immediately alert the administrators of the broken link and provide efficient solution to monitor the network power usage. Plug and Play High Power Sourcing Solution Complying with the IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet Plus technology, the IGTP-80xT provides up to 30 watts of PoE output power, doubling that of the earlier 802.3af. It is also backward compatible with 802.3af PoE standards to allow users to flexibly deploy standard and high powered devices simultaneously with no need of software configuration. With data and Power over Ethernet from one unit, the IGTP-80xT can reduce cable deployment and eliminate the need for dedicated electrical outlets on the wall, ceiling or any unreachable place. Convenient and Reliable Power System To facilitate the 802.3at power PoE+ usage with the commonly-used 12~48V DC power input or 24V AC power input for transportation and industrial-level applications, the IGTP-80xT adopts the 12~48V DC to 52V power boost technology to solve power source issue but does not require special power supplies. Its wide-ranging voltages design is suitable for worldwide operability with high availability applications requiring dual or backup power inputs. Environmentally Hardened Design for Industrial PoE Networks The IGTP-80xT is specifically designed with durable components and strong housing case to operate reliably in electrically harsh and climatically demanding environments like plant floors or curbside traffic control cabinets. The IGTP-80xT is packaged in a compact, IP30 rugged case that allows either DIN-rail or wall mounting to have the efficient use of cabinet space. With IP30 rugged case protection and PoE design, the IGTP-80xT is ideal for service providers, campuses and public areas to deploy PoE wireless access points, IP cameras or IP phones in any places easily and efficiently with cost-effectiveness. It can also operate in wide temperature range of -40 to 75 degrees C, so it can be placed in almost any location.
