Barox PC-PMC101-GME Network Media Converter

The Barox PC-PMC101-GME is an industrial network media converter designed for high data-load applications such as video over IP and streaming. It provides a Gigabit copper 10/100/1000TX RJ-45 port and an optical SFP port with LC fiber connector in a compact housing (59 mm x 50 mm x 36 mm). The unit supports IEEE 802.3 standards, delivers up to 1000 Mbit/s throughput, consumes 2 W, and is certified by CE and FCC. The converter supports PoE 802.3af/at on the copper port with up to 30 W and is supplied with mounting accessories for DIN-rail and wall installation.

Advantages

The device combines fiber and Gigabit copper connections in a small, robust enclosure suited for industrial environments, with a wide operating temperature range and low power consumption. PoE support on the RJ-45 port enables power delivery to compatible devices while the optical SFP port provides long-distance, low-latency transmission. Compact dimensions and included DIN-rail clamp and wall-mount clip simplify installation in remote or space-constrained locations.

Suitable for

• Video over IP systems and streaming applications
• Industrial network segments requiring fiber-to-Ethernet conversion
• Remote installations with limited space or DIN-rail cabinets
• PoE-powered devices such as IP cameras and access points

How to use

Mount the converter on a DIN-rail using the supplied clamp or fix it to a wall with the included clip. Insert a compatible SFP module and connect the fiber optic cable to the LC port, then connect the Ethernet device to the RJ-45 port. If powering a PoE device, ensure the connected port and powered device comply with IEEE 802.3af/at and that the converter receives appropriate power. Verify link and activity LEDs (if present) during initial setup to confirm connectivity.

Recommendations

Install the media converter in a ventilated, dust-free location and route fiber and copper cables to avoid sharp bends. Use SFP modules and fiber cables that meet the required distance and type for your installation. Confirm PoE power budget before connecting high-consumption devices.
