GHPoE/Sx and GHPoEBT/Sx
User Manual
Product Overview
The OmniConverter GHPoE/Sx and GHPoEBT/Sx are compact High-Power PoE
Ethernet switches that feature copper or fiber uplink ports and four 10/100/1000 RJ-45
copper Power Sourcing Power-over-Ethernet user ports.
The GHPoE/Sx is a pre-IEEE 802.3bt switch featuring up to 60W per user port models.
The GHPoEBT/Sx is an IEEE 802.3bt compliant PoE switch featuring 60W and 100W
per user port models.
The module functions can be configured using easily accessible DIP-switches.
OmniConverter 6 Port Modules
The modules automatically negotiate and deliver the power level (PoE, PoE+, or
up to 100W per 802.3bt) required by a Powered Device (PD) partner. Depending
on the model of the OmniConverter PoE switch, the switch can deliver up to 60 or
100 Watts of power per RJ-45 port.
Front Panel
The front of the module provides access to the RJ-45 PoE and uplink ports.
RJ-45 PoE, Uplinks and Fixed-Fiber Ports
The RJ-45 PoE Ethernet user port supports 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX and
1000BASE-T protocols, auto-negotiation, auto MDI/MDI-X crossover and can be
manually forced to a specific speed and duplex mode.
The module is available with one or two gigabit SFP transceiver uplink ports or
two 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 copper uplink ports or two LC fixed gigabit fiber
uplink ports.
The SFP ports support SERDES 1000BASE-X fiber transceivers (multimode,
single-mode and single-mode singe-fiber) and SGMII 10/100/1000BASE-T copper
transceivers. The SFP interfaces operate in auto-negotiation and support full
duplex operation.
Fixed-fiber 1000BASE-X connectors are available with multimode (MM) dual fiber,
single-mode (SM) dual fiber and single-mode single-fiber (SF) options. Dual fiber
options are available with ST, SC and LC connectors. Single-fiber options are
available with SC connectors.
