Information Technology

Transparent LAN service providers require remote management capabilities, and must be able to isolate management traffic and customer data. Typical Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) do not allow this, since those devices are usually owned by the customer and inaccessible to the network operator. The compact IE-MiniFiberLinX-II, functioning as a more advanced Network Interface Device is designed for operation by service providers and campus network administrators. It provisions point-to-point fiber optic connections and provides a remote network interface at the customer's location that monitors the entire link between two locations.

The PoE and PoE+Giga-MiniMc/LFPT are low-cost, compact, multi-port media converters that support both PoE and PoE+ standards. Utilizing their flexibility and compact size, interior private network applications can further benefit from the ever-expanding versatility of the MiniMc product line.

Featuring 2-10/100/1000Base-T copper UTP ports and one SFP uplink port that supports either a copper or fiber SFP, the PoE and PoE+ Giga-MiniMc are Power Source Equipment (PSE) devices. The PoE+ Giga-MiniMc is capable of powering up to two Powered Devices (PD) over standard CAT5 cable or better, whereas the PoE Giga-MiniMc/ LFPT can power one PD device via a copper port while delivering data over the other copper port. The PoE+ Giga-MiniMc/LFPT is able to power high-power devices such as touch panels, PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) IP surveillance cameras, and RFID readers that require more power than the typical 15.4 W provided by standard PSE devices such as the PoE Giga-MiniMc.
