Fiber Connections has solutions for media conversion, power over Ethernet and PoE+ – in compact, easy to install packages.
Yes. Fiber Connections has several PoE+ products that are fully compliant to IEEE 802.3at. We are also working on several products that include PoE++ capabilities.
We support all standard multimode and single mode fiber types and can equip our Power Patch Panels and GatorLinks with many combinations of MTP, LC, SC or hybrid (powered) LC or MTP connectors and adapters.
A complete end to end system, designed by Fiber Connections comes with a 2 year warranty. Contact us about extended warranty options for your project.
The media converters are CE certified, and are therefore approved for use in many regions. The cable listing should be checked for compliance to local codes.
Our system complies with FCC Part 15 Class A for commercial products. The system also complies with CE EMC/EMI directive EN55024 and EN55022 including Electrostatic Discharge (IEC 1000-4-2) and Surge (IEC 1000-4-5). The Power Patch Panel’s and the GatorLink’s AC power supply are UL-listed.
Since the GatorLinks are highly configurable and offer various combinations of PoE, media conversion and fiber distribution options, systems can be designed to accommodate almost any network design.
The system provides mid-span power injection per the IEEE 802.3af specification. Therefore, it will work with both powered and non-powered switches. In this instance, the powered switch is acting only as a switch, and will not provide power to the device. The Power Patch Panel is still needed.
On the copper side of the Power Patch Panel (PPP) and GatorLink devices, Ethernet connectivity is automatically detected. Also on the copper side, both auto-negotiate connection speed and full/half duplex. On the fiber side, the optical link is automatically detected.
Currently, we support 10/100Mb/s or 1Gb/s. Plans for a tri-speed 10/100/1000Mb/s option are currently in development.
The number of remote devices supported by a fully loaded Power Patch Panel can vary based on the configuration of the remote ports. Depending on the GatorLink configurations and the power requirements of remote devices, up to 36 remote PoE devices can be supported from each fully loaded 4U PPP. More devices may be able [...]
