Etherwan Systems EL900-A-C-1-C Hardened Media Converter

Product Description

The ETHERWAN SYSTEMS, INC. EL900-A-C-1-C is a hardened media converter designed for demanding industrial and commercial network infrastructure applications. Media converters of this type bridge two different physical media types within an Ethernet network, most commonly converting between copper twisted-pair cabling and fiber optic cabling. The EL900-A-C-1-C is built to hardened specifications, meaning it is intended to withstand elevated temperatures, vibration, and electrical noise levels found in industrial environments. Installation is typically performed by a licensed network technician or industrial controls electrician.

This unit is suited for industrial automation, traffic management, utility infrastructure, and similar applications where standard commercial-grade networking equipment would be insufficient. DIN rail or panel mounting options make it compatible with standard industrial control enclosures and equipment cabinets. Its hardened construction makes it appropriate for both indoor and outdoor enclosure deployments where environmental conditions exceed commercial standards.

Key Features

• Hardened construction rated for industrial temperature and environmental conditions
• DIN rail or panel mount options for flexible installation in control cabinets
• Supports media conversion for industrial Ethernet network infrastructure
• Compact form factor suitable for space-constrained enclosures

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style hardened media converter for industrial Ethernet applications requiring DIN rail or panel-mounted network media conversion.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified network technician or industrial electrician familiar with industrial control panel standards. De-energize the control panel and any connected network equipment before mounting or wiring the converter. Secure the unit firmly to the DIN rail or panel surface per the manufacturer mounting instructions. Verify that all fiber and copper connections are fully seated and that bend radius limits on any fiber cabling are observed.
