ComNet RLMCSFP48DC Media Converter SFP Optical Port 48 VDC

Features:

• RLMCSFPPOEHO Supports PoE PDs (Powered Devices) requiring 15, 30, or 60 watt PoE operating power
• Full duplex transmission of 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet: (1) 10/100/1000BASE-TX port and (1) 100BASE-FX or 1000BASE-FX optical port
• Designed to the requirements of IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 Class 2 for electrical utility substations, EN50155 for railway applications, and NEMA TS-1/TS-2 for traffic signal control equipment, and IEC/EN60950-1
• Extended ambient operating temperature range of -40º to +85º C, for use in virtually any environment. Optional conformal coating available for humidity with condensation or airborne particulate matter environments
• Uses customer-installed ComNet SFPs for compatibility with a wide range of optical fiber, optical connector types, and optical transmission distances of up to 120 km
• Link fault pass-through provides a remote indication of a network fault
• 10/100/1000BASE-TX port supports both auto-negotiation and automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover for full and half-duplex operation; manual MDI/MDI-X switching is not required
• 48 VDC operating power
• Internal/self-contained high-reliability power supply eliminates the need for an external power supply, and a screw terminal block connects directly to the power source for permanent, reliable, and maintenance-free operation
• Features redundant power inputs, for extremely high levels of reliability and availability
• No fans or forced-air cooling required; cooling via natural convection eliminates unreliable and troublesome fans/moving parts for improved reliability
• Indicating LEDs confirm operating status of the media converter and the link for ease in troubleshooting
• Summary fault alarm provides a local or remote indication via a dry contact closure in the event of loss of optical link or operating power
• Rugged 19-gauge galvanized & powder-coated steel enclosure may be DIN-rail or panel-mounted

Applications:

• For supporting NERC-CIP-014 compliance, and other critical infrastructure physical security applications where PoE-powered IP video cameras, access control equipment, perimeter security sensing devices, etc., are utilized
• Electrical substation automation & SCADA networks, protective relaying systems, and distribution automation
• Power transmission & distribution systems, remote wind farm, hydroelectric, and solar/photovoltaic power generation facilities, and other electrical utility-specific applications
• Industrial/Factory Automation & Process Control SCADA Networks
• Chemical and petrochemical refining and processing facilities, oil and gas pipelines/transmission systems, and mining installations
• Food processing operations
• Wastewater treatment plants
• ITS/Transportation Traffic Signalization & Surveillance/Incident Detection Networks
• Railway/trackside control and monitoring systems
• Integrated IP-Video, VOIP, and Data Transmission Networks
• Cellular telephony and wireless backhaul networks

The ComNet RLMCSFP series is a substation-rated and industrially hardened Ethernet media converter that optionally supports Universal PoE (Power over Ethernet) powered devices requiring up to 60 watts of operating power. Designed to the requirements of IEC 61850-3, IEEE 1613 Class 2, EN50155, and NEMA TS-1/TS-2, it is intended for deployment in environments where high levels of electromagnetic noise and interference (EMI) and severe voltage transients and surges are routinely encountered, such as electrical utility substations and switchyards, heavy manufacturing facilities, trackside and roadside electronic equipment, and other difficult out-of-plant applications. The DIP-switch-selectable 100BASE-FX or 1000BASE-FX port supports optical transmission media with selection of the appropriate ComNet SFP* module. User-selectable link fault pass-through provides remote indication of a network fault, and a summary fault alarm provides a local or remote indication via a dry contact closure in the event of loss of optical link or operating power. The 10/100/1000BASETX port supports both auto-negotiation and automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover for full and half-duplex operation; manual MDI/MDI-X switching is not required. The simple to install, plug-and-play RLMCSFP series is DIN-rail or panel-mountable, and is ideal for mission-critical PoE applications where very high levels of reliability and network availability are of the utmost importance.
