10/100/1000BASE-T PoE to 1000BASE-X SFP Media Converter
Gigabit PoE PSE media converter with one 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ45 port and one open 1000BASE-X SFP slot for powering a compatible endpoint over copper.
FIBER UPLINK + POWERED COPPER EDGE
10/100/1000BASE-T PoE PSE · Open 1000BASE-X SFP
Extend a Gigabit fiber link to one powered network device without placing a separate local power supply at the endpoint. Confirm the device's PoE standard and power demand before ordering.
What the converter does
- Converts between 10/100/1000BASE-T copper and 1000BASE-X fiber.
- Acts as Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) on the RJ45 port.
- Uses an open SFP slot so fiber type and reach can be selected per link.
Reference quotation configuration
| Copper / PoE port | 1 × 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ45 |
|---|---|
| Fiber port | 1 × open 1000BASE-X SFP slot |
| PoE role | Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) |
| PoE reference standard | IEEE 802.3af |
| Maximum PSE output | 15.4W reference configuration; verify the PD's required input power |
| Copper distance | Up to 100m on suitable Cat5 or better cabling; PoE voltage drop still requires review |
| Fiber type / reach | Determined by the selected 1G SFP and optical path |
| Power input | External power adapter; input and country plug confirmed in the quotation |
The 15.4W value is the PSE-side reference limit, not the guaranteed usable power at the far end of every cable. Cable length, conductor size and PD demand matter.
Deployment checks for a powered endpoint
Record the camera, access point, phone or other endpoint model and its PoE class or maximum input.
Confirm cable category, conductor quality, run length and connector condition for both data and power.
Match rate, fiber mode, wavelength, connector, reach and the remote optical endpoint.
State mounting location, ambient temperature, ventilation and required power-plug country.
Frequently asked questions
Is this converter a PoE source or a powered device?
It is a Power Sourcing Equipment device. The RJ45 port provides data and power to a compatible Powered Device.
Will it power any PoE camera or access point?
No. This reference profile is IEEE 802.3af with a 15.4W PSE-side limit. Confirm the PD standard, class and worst-case input before use.
What if the endpoint requires PoE+ or PoE++?
Do not use the 802.3af profile without verification. Request a converter with the required 802.3at or 802.3bt power budget and matching supply.
Is 15.4W available at the remote device?
Not necessarily. The stated value is at the PSE side. Cable resistance and length reduce the power available to the Powered Device.
Is the SFP module supplied with the converter?
The unit uses an open 1G SFP slot. Specify the required multimode, single-mode, BiDi or wavelength-selective link so the correct optics can be quoted.
How far can the fiber link reach?
Reach depends on the selected SFP pair and the complete optical budget. The converter itself does not define one universal fiber distance.
What should be checked when data works but PoE does not?
Verify the PD standard and demand, PSE power supply, copper pin contact, cable length and quality, connectors, indicators and actual voltage at the endpoint.
What information should be sent with an RFQ?
Send the PD model and power requirement, copper run, SFP type and fiber route, remote equipment, plug country, ambient conditions, quantity and schedule.
Confirm both the optical link and PoE load
Send the powered-device model, PoE class or maximum input, copper length, fiber and SFP requirements, remote endpoint, plug country, quantity and required date.
