WEIDMULLER Fiber to ethernet media converters provide real-time compatibility and the ability to integrate glass fibers into a network while remaining transparent to other network devices. Product converts the Ethernet, via an RJ45 port, to an optical port with SC or ST glass fiber connections. Link Fault Pass-Through (LFP) technology employs mechanical relay outputs that alarm on power failure and port breakages on either fiber or Ethernet ports. The LFP feature retains the collision domain between the two Ethernet participants, resulting in status transparency between the two Ethernet interfaces. Redundant power inputs allow for more secure connections.
