Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What fiber optic modules are compatible with this PoE fiber media converter?
A: The TFC-PGSFP supports standard SFP transceivers including single-mode and multi-mode fiber ethernet switches modules for distances up to 120km depending on the SFP module specifications.
Q: Can this converter work without a PoE switch or power over ethernet adapter?
A: No, this is a PoE powered device that requires power over ethernet adapter functionality or a PoE-enabled switch to operate. It draws power directly from the Ethernet connection.
Q: What's the maximum transmission distance with this gigabit SFP converter?
A: Distance depends on the SFP module installed — network switch fiber optic configurations can achieve 550m with multi-mode fiber or up to 120km with long-reach single-mode SFP modules.
Q: Does this support both 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T connections?
A: Yes. The converter provides auto-negotiation for 100/1000BASE-T conversion and automatically detects connection speeds for optimal performance in mixed network environments.
Q: Is this converter compatible with existing network infrastructure?
A: Absolutely. It's designed for seamless integration with existing fiber ethernet switches, PoE switches, and standard Ethernet networks while meeting IEEE 802.3af compliance standards.
