Industrial Media Converters
Industrial media converters assist you with converting your Ethernet networking equipment to fiber optic. Industrial or “hardened” media converters are particularly useful in harsh working environments with extreme temperature ranges. Hardened media converters facilitate seamless data transfer and connectivity in extreme environments. These hardened fiber media converters feature a robust enclosure to prevent damages, and these can be rated on an IP scale. At VERSITRON, we offer a variety of industrial grade media converters with fiber to help you meet your data communication requirements. We are extremely customer oriented and always adopt a personalized approach to help you meet your needs.
Workings of Industrial Ethernet Media Converters Explained
Hardened media converters have a robust metallic enclosure which acts as a shield to prevent dust, contaminants, moisture, and debris from entering the inside of the device. This enclosure also works as a huge heat sink and facilitates heat dissipation. Like any of our media converters these hardened fiber converters are compatible for fiber to copper data transmissions thereby connecting two dissimilar networks. These converters also provide alert and status messaging systems. This kind of heat dissipation facilitates cooling and eliminates the need of a separate air filter and fan to cool the electronic components after operation. This aspect also helps to reduce energy costs.
