Comnet CNMCSFPPOE/M Multi-rate Media Converter Poe

Product Description

The COMNET CNMCSFPPOE/M is a multi-rate media converter supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet speeds with Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability. Media converters of this type bridge copper Ethernet and fiber optic connections, extending network reach beyond the distance limitations of standard copper cabling. This unit is sold individually and is suited for installation by network technicians, low-voltage contractors, and systems integrators working in enterprise or industrial environments where fiber backbone connections must interface with copper-based devices.

This media converter is designed for applications where copper-to-fiber conversion is required at the network edge or within a structured cabling plant. Typical deployments include enterprise LAN extensions, surveillance system backbones, and industrial control networks. The PoE functionality allows the unit to deliver power to connected devices such as IP cameras or wireless access points directly through the Ethernet port, eliminating the need for a separate power supply at the remote device location.

Key Features

• Multi-rate support across 10, 100, and 1000 Mbps Ethernet speeds
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) output for powering remote network devices
• SFP-based fiber port accommodates various fiber transceiver modules
• Copper-to-fiber media conversion extends network reach beyond standard copper distance limits
• Sold as a single unit (EA) for individual deployment or slot-based chassis integration

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or field-deployable unit compatible with standard SFP fiber transceivers and 10/100/1000 Mbps copper Ethernet infrastructure in enterprise and industrial network environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage or network technician familiar with structured cabling standards and fiber handling procedures. Power down connected network equipment before making or breaking Ethernet or fiber connections. SFP transceiver modules must be inserted and seated fully before establishing a fiber link. Follow applicable TIA/EIA cabling standards and local low-voltage codes during installation.
