Ethernet-based, Standalone Media Converters
PSE-McBasic Series
Supporting the IEEE 802.3af PoE standard, the standalone PSE-McBasic
media converter offers unparalleled installation flexibility and cost-
savings.
Connecting and powering small devices at the edge of a wired
network infrastructure becomes increasingly important to LANs/
MANs as they add WiFi access points, webcams, entry control
systems, etc. Sometimes, the most optimal location for one of
these devices is not only out of reach of the existing copper wiring,
but also too far from an AC power source. Deploying a media
converter supporting the Power Over Ethernet standard is the
solution for both extending an access point up to 100 Km from the
central office equipment as well as powering the end-device.
Equipped with all the features that have made the McBasic series
one of IMC Networks’ most popular brands — copper-to-fiber
conversion, troubleshooting capability, a small, rugged design, and
an internal AC power supply — the 100 Mbps PSE-McBasic also
employs the IEEE 802.3af Power Over Ethernet (PoE) standard.
Power Over Ethernet technology
Power Over Ethernet technology allows the PSE-McBasic to be the
Power Source Equipment (PSE) by distributing an electrical current
across existing copper data cabling. If the connected unit requires
power and is 802.3af compliant, the PSE-McBasic detects it and
supplies power. LEDs on the PSE-McBasic indicate the amount
of power being supplied to the “Powered Device” (PD) as well as
if the PSE-McBasic is over temperature or over current or has an
open circuit.
Also available is an Extreme Temperature model:
The PSE-XT-McBasic has an operating temperature of up to 65°C,
perfect for installing in even the hottest of conditions.
RoHS Compliant
Application Example
Incorporating the PoE standard into the
product design allows network administrators
to install the PSE-McBasic up to 100 meters
from an access point while support of single-
mode fiber allows installation of the media
converter up to 80 Km from a central office
(CO) switch. The best location for a WiFi
access point, for example, may be on a utility
pole outside or in the ceiling where there is
no AC outlet. The PSE-McBasic makes the
connection between the CO switch, via single
or multi-mode fiber, and a twisted pair access
point while also providing power to a WiFi
device.
Using the PoE technology, the PSE-McBasic
becomes the Power Source Equipment for
the Powered Device. This gives installers
greater installation flexibility since the access
device no longer has to be in the immediate
proximity of an AC power source and/or UPS.
