1. Overview
Thank you for purchasing Antaira's FCU-1802Px family of
10/100Mbps Ethernet Twisted pair to 100Base-FX Fiber-optic
PoE Bridge Converter. This converter is used to convert one type
media signal to another easily, efficiently and inexpensively. The
converter provides Power over Ethernet power injector function
which is able to drive one IEEE 802.3af compliant powered
devices.
About the Power over Ethernet Injector
The FCU-1802Px has an IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet
Injector that provides DC 48V over Ethernet cables. The
FCU-1802Px IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet Injector inserts
DC Voltage into Cat.5 cable, allowing the cable between the
Injector (FCU-1802Px) and PoE PD (Powered Device) to transfer
data and power simultaneously. The maximum distance between
the Injector (FCU-1802Px) and PoE PD is 100 meters. With
the FCU-1802Px installed, it combines the Ethernet digital data
with power over the twisted pair cables as an IEEE 802.3af
Power over Ethernet Injector. And the IEEE 802.3af Power over
Ethernet splitter shall separate the digital data and the power
into two outputs.
With IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet devices installed, the
system administrator only has to use a single RJ-45 Ethernet
cable to carriy both power and data to each device. Aside from
connecting through the FCU-1802Px and PoE PD, you can also
have the benefit of cost saving, easy for networking planning,
and higher reliability. Moreover, upon any IEEE 802.3af device
installation, the FCU-1802Px or PD can make the connection
while migrating the Ethernet digital packets, such as connecting
the FCU-1802Px to an IEEE 802.3af complied devices, AP or IP
Camera.
