PLANET GT-805A-PD 802.3at PoE+ PD 10/100/1000BASE-T to 100/1000BASE-X SFP Media Converter

GT-805A-PD - PLANET 802.3at PoE+ PD 10/100/1000BASE-T to 100/1000BASE-X SFP Media Converter

Two Kinds of Power Input Designs for Flexible Installation

The GT-805A-PD features two kinds of power input system designs (IEEE 802.3af/at/bt 48V~54V DC in-line power and optional 5V DC input) incorporated into customer’s network to enhance system reliability and uptime. However, that has to depend on the kind of  Ethernet environment that is needed, be it the GT-805A-PD operated as a PoE PD media converter or standard Gigabit media converter with optional 5V DC input.

High Performance and Steady Network Communications Guaranteed Despite Distance Extension

The GT-805A-PD extends communication distance with high Gigabit performance via SFP slot and SFP transceiver. The GT-805A-PD provides media conversion between 10/100/1000BASE-T and 1000BASE-SX/LX interfaces for various fiber optic applications. The available SFP LC fiber interfaces are shown below:

Enhanced Smart Management Features

The GT-805A-PD provides auto MDI/MDI-X on its TP port and the DIP switch to configure the Link Fault Passthrough function (LFP). The LFP function includes the Link Loss Carry Forward (LLCF)/Link Loss Return (LLR). LLCF/LLR can immediately alert administrators of the problem of the link media and provide efficient solution to monitoring the network. The DIP switch can disable or enable the LFP function. 

• LLCF means when a device connected to the converter and the TP line loses the link, the converter’s fiber will disconnect the link of transmission. 
• LLR (Link Loss Return) means when a device connected to the converter and the fiber line loses the link, the converter’s fiber will disconnect the link of transmission. 

Both can immediately alert administrators of the problem of the link media and provide efficient solution to monitoring the network.

Can be Easily Deployed as Standalone Unit or with Chassis

The GT-805A-PD allows two types of the segment to connect easily. The GT-805A-PD can be used as a standalone unit when powered by its DC adapter or used as a slide-in module to PLANET 19-inch 7-/15-slot media converter chassis (MC-700/MC-1500/MC-1500R/MC-1500R48). These media chassis can assist in producing the power for the GT-805A-PD to maintain the fiber-optic network at one location. As the Gigabit media converter fully complies with IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T, IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX, IEEE 802.3ab 1000BASE-T and IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-LX/SX, the Gigabit media converter installation is quite quick and easy with its Plug and Play feature. The GT-805A-PD also supports flow control and back pressure in half-duplex mode to eliminate packet loss.

The Combination of PoE PD and Gigabit Ethernet Distance Extension

Since the Gigabit RJ45 port of the GT-805A-PD provides PoE PD power in-line interface, the GT-805A-PD can obtain PoE power from any 802.3af/at/bt PoE PSE equipment, which reduces the reliance on electrical outlets.

The GT-805A-PD directly converts the media from the Gigabit fiber to twisted-pair interface. For example, it can be applied between the Gigabit Fiber Switch and the Gigabit Copper Network Card to perform media conversion and transmission.

With the conversion, you can easily have the transmission distance of Gigabit copper cable extended up to 550 meters or longer (depending on SFP module). Built in with one single SFP port, the GT-805A-PD can integrate with the existing copper switch to provide Gigabit fiber transmission without the need of replacing with the Gigabit Fiber Switch. With the Gigabit fiber transmission, the GT-805A-PD enables video stream to be delivered from the camera located in a distance of up to 120km to local Network Video Recorder.

Fiber-Optic Networking for ISPs, System Integrators, Enterprises and Homes

With superb data transmission and easy installation, the GT-805A-PD can be used to build an ISP network  of FTTH (Fiber to the Home), FTTC (Fiber to the Curb) or FTTB (Fiber to the Building). The GT-805A-PD is also ideal for small office network environment for enterprises.
