Comnet CNFE2004S1BPOE/M 100mbps Media Converter 2TX 1FX

Product Description

The COMNET CNFE2004S1BPOE/M is a 100Mbps Ethernet media converter designed to bridge two copper twisted-pair (TX) ports to a single fiber optic (FX) uplink in a Type B configuration. It supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing connected devices to receive power through the network cable without a separate power supply. This converter is built for enterprise and industrial network infrastructure where copper-to-fiber conversion is required to extend transmission distances or improve noise immunity. Licensed network technicians and structured cabling installers are the primary trades who specify and deploy this equipment.

This media converter is suited for enterprise LAN deployments, security camera networks, access control systems, and other applications where 100Mbps copper Ethernet segments need to transition to fiber optic cabling. The Type B port configuration supports two TX copper ports feeding into one FX fiber port, making it useful at the edge of a network segment where multiple copper-connected devices aggregate to a single fiber run. It is sold individually as a single unit.

Key Features

• Converts 2 copper TX Ethernet ports to 1 fiber optic FX uplink at 100Mbps
• Type B port configuration for flexible network topology deployment
• Integrated PoE support powers attached devices over copper Ethernet cabling
• 100Mbps Fast Ethernet speed suitable for standard enterprise edge applications
• Compact single-unit form factor sold as individual equipment (EA)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style enterprise media converter compatible with standard 100BASE-TX copper Ethernet and 100BASE-FX fiber optic network infrastructure segments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified network technician or licensed low-voltage cabling contractor familiar with structured cabling standards and PoE power budgeting requirements. Power down or disconnect PoE-powered devices before connecting or disconnecting cables to avoid unintended power surges to attached equipment. Verify fiber connector type and polish (PC, UPC, or APC) matches the fiber plant before installation. Follow TIA-568 and applicable local low-voltage codes when running copper or fiber cabling.
