Advantech 10/100Mbps PoE Media Converter

Advantech 10/100Mbps PoE Media Converter
IMC-480 and 490 are the perfect solutions for network applications that require Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) for locations inside buildings where PoE is required to power an Ethernet device. The IMC-480 and 490 series offer three ports: one fiber uplink for the network connection, one PoE/PSE copper port that provides Power-over-Ethernet, and one copper port to connect a non-PoE unit to the same fiber uplink.

As a fiber media converter, it provides both power (up to 15.4W with IMC-480 and 25.5W with IMC-490) and data to a single remote device over standard CAT5, eliminating the need for additional power to the end device at the remote site. Additionally, the IMC-480/490 media converters come with an internal AC power supply and support jumbo frames up to 10240 bytes. The IMC-480/490 series features Link Fault Pass Through (LFPT) with a DIP switch that has a diagnostic feature which can be enabled or disabled to assist the end user in troubleshooting a failed segment.
