Black Box Hardened Media Converter Switch 24-VDC - fiber media converter -

Switch at Gigabit speeds between copper and single-mode fiber in industrial areas at distances of up to 10 kilometers. Switch traffic between a Gigabit-speed fiber single-mode backbone and two copper Gigabit segments. Or use the second copper port to provide access to other Ethernet devices. Supports extended distances up to 10 kilometers (6.2 mi.) on single-mode fiber. Features high-grade components and special thermal design for industrial use. Robust steel case protects circuitry and communications from the demands of factory applications. No internal airflow required for cooling. The convection case works as a heat sink. Resists dirt debris moisture smoke and insects (IEC529 IP40 rated). Designed for NEBS compliance to withstand shock vibration and high altitudes. Copper ports auto-negotiate to network and device speeds. Autocross (MDI-X) on the copper side. Cascade easily without the need for a crossover cable. Provides full 10- 100- and 1000-Mbps switching for high-performance LANs. Supports VLANs. Retr
