Netwerk-mediaconverter Barox PC-HPMC101-GE

The Barox PC-HPMC101-GE is an industrial-grade network media converter designed for high-data-load applications such as video-over-IP and streaming. Its compact housing, wide operating temperature range and support for Gigabit Ethernet make it suitable for deployments in remote or harsh environments. The unit provides one optical SFP port and one copper RJ-45 port that supports 10/100/1000TX and PoE standards 802.3af/at/bt with up to 60 W. The converter is supplied with a clamp for DIN-rail mounting and a clip for wall mounting.

Advantages

Compact dimensions and low power consumption allow flexible installation in space-constrained sites. Gigabit Ethernet support and an optical SFP port provide reliable high-throughput links for video and other bandwidth-intensive services. Integrated PoE on the copper port supplies up to 60 W to powered devices, reducing the need for separate power cabling. The included DIN-rail clamp and wall-mount clip simplify mounting in industrial racks or on walls.

Suitable for

• Video over IP and streaming systems
• Industrial network segments and remote sites
• PoE-powered devices such as cameras, access points, and controllers
• Migrating between copper and fiber links

Key specifications

• Maximum data transfer rate: 1000 Mbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet)

How to use

Mount the media converter on a DIN rail using the supplied clamp or attach it to a wall using the supplied clip. Insert a compatible SFP module into the optical SFP port and connect the fiber cable, then connect the copper RJ-45 port to the local Ethernet device. Supply the unit with 48–56 VDC power. If using PoE, ensure the powered device is compatible with the supported 802.3af/at/bt classes and that the required power does not exceed 60 W.

Recommendations

For reliable operation in industrial environments, install the converter within its specified operating temperature range, use certified SFP modules and fiber cabling, and verify PoE power requirements of connected devices before commissioning.
