Optical media converterActive componentsIntroduction Media convertersBThe use of fibre optics is advisable when reliability demandsare high or there are long distances to cover. One simple andinexpensive solution is the Weidmüller media converter, whichglass fibre connection. The supply voltage can be designedas a redundant system and therefore provides users with highor ST fibre optic ports can be set transparently.Weidmüller Industrial Ethernet media converters provide asolution for industrial applications that require a highly reliable,robust data exchange between copper and glass fibre media.Media converters are cost-effective devices and give usersthe option of integrating fibre optics into their networks. TheWeidmüller media converters are real-time-compatible andremain transparent in the network.Single-mode long-distance cablingMedia converterMedia converterTransparent linkPump station20 kmLong-distance cabling of up to 60 km is possible in single-modewith our media converters. Our standard converter features amax. 2-km transmission path in multi-mode and a max. 20-kmtransmission path in single-mode. The required connectioncables can be found in Chapter D.B.70
