OmniConverter® GPoE+/Sx

Unmanaged 6 and 10 Port PoE/PoE+ Gigabit Ethernet Switch

The OmniConverter GPoE+/Sx is a compact unmanaged PoE and PoE+ Ethernet switch that feature copper or fiber uplink ports and four or eight 10/100/1000 PoE/PoE+ RJ-45 copper user ports.

The OmniConverter GPoE+/Sx is a standard Layer 2 Ethernet switch that forwards frames to any port based on their MAC address.

All models supports Directed Switch mode, which directs multicast traffic (such as video) only to the appropriate uplink port, preventing the multicast video traffic from flooding other network ports.

Models with two fiber or two copper uplink ports support daisy-chain configurations or redundant uplinks for critical applications that require protection and sub 50ms restoration in the event of an uplink failure.

Models with two fiber or two copper uplink ports also support Dual Device mode that enables the switches to operate as two independent and isolated Ethernet switches.

The GPoE+/Sx modes of operation can be configured using easily accessible DIP-switches. Each DIP-switch function is labeled on the side of the OmniConverter for ease of identification and use.

The OmniConverter PoE switches are available with fixed fiber ST, SC, and LC connectors or Small Form Pluggable (SFP) transceiver receptacles. Fiber ports support multimode or single-mode and dual fiber or single-fiber with distances up to 140km. SFP models support a variety of distances in standard, CWDM and DWDM wavelengths.

The GPoE+/Sx automatically negotiate and deliver the power level required by a Powered Device (PD) partner. The GPoE+/Sx can deliver up to 30 Watts of power per user port.

The switches feature a PoE power reset function that enables the attached PD device, such as a camera or access point, to be re-initialized remotely, eliminating the need for costly truck rolls to remote PD sites. When a problem with a PD is detected, the fiber port on the module can be disconnected, triggering the PoE power reset function.

All models can be wall mounted, rack mounted or DIN-rail mounted using an optional mounting clip. They are available with an external 100 to 240V AC power adapter or with a DC terminal connector.

Dual Device Mode Application

This Dual Device feature is extremely useful when two isolated networks domains share a single network distribution location.

The example below depicts a scenario where a surveillance security (green) network and a Wi-Fi (purple) network are sharing a single hub distribution location. Using the two uplinks and the Dual Switch mode facilitates using a single PoE switch driving both the Cameras and the Wi-Fi Access Points while maintaining isolation between the networks.

Daisy Chain Application

This example demonstrates the daisy chain capabilities of the OmniConverter PoE switches. In this application each OmniConverter switch connects to its neighboring switch via its uplink ports. The daisy chain can continue to additional switches using this method of connectivity.

Each OmniConverter switch provides connectivity to the fiber links, and power to IP cameras and Wi-Fi access points at each location along the daisy chain.
