Altronix Corp NETWAYSP4PX 4-port Media Converter 480W

Product Description

The ALTRONIX CORP NETWAYSP4PX is a 4-port media converter with an integrated 480-watt power supply housed in a 1U rack-mount form factor. Media converters of this type bridge different network media types, allowing fiber and copper Ethernet segments to communicate within a single infrastructure. The 480W power supply supports powered port operation, making it well suited for installations where connected devices draw power over the network link. Security integrators, low-voltage technicians, and network infrastructure installers are the primary trades that deploy this type of equipment.

The NETWAYSP4PX is intended for commercial and light industrial network infrastructure installations where rack-mount density and centralized power management are priorities. Its 1U profile conserves rack space in telecommunications closets, security head-end racks, and IDF enclosures. The 4-port configuration supports small-to-medium distribution points where a limited number of media conversion uplinks are required at a single rack location.

Key Features

• 4-port media conversion supports multiple simultaneous network links in a single unit
• Integrated 480W power supply eliminates the need for a separate external power source
• 1U rack-mount form factor conserves space in standard 19-inch equipment racks
• Centralized power management simplifies wiring and reduces cable clutter in the rack
• Sold as an individual unit suitable for single-location deployments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style installation unit for rack-mount media converter applications in commercial low-voltage and network infrastructure systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or qualified network infrastructure installer familiar with rack-mount equipment and structured cabling standards. Power down the rack circuit and discharge any stored energy before seating or removing the unit. Follow TIA-568 and applicable local codes for cable termination and rack grounding. Do not exceed the unit port or power ratings when connecting downstream devices.
