Description
The EL8020 Series serves as a robust media converter, facilitating the transition between 10/100/1000BASE-TX and 100/1000 SFP fiber networks. Designed for mission-critical operations in challenging environments, this industrial-grade media converter offers exceptional durability, including high resistance to shock and vibration, immunity to electrical noise, and an extended operating temperature range from -40 to 75°C. Housed in an aluminum casing, the EL8020 features dual power inputs, link down alarming, Link-Fault-Pass-Through functionality, and diverse fiber connectivity options, making it an ideal choice for environments where reliable network connectivity is essential.
### Key Features
– **Full Gigabit Bandwidth and Jumbo Frames**: Offers seamless conversion between 10/100/1000BASE-TX and 100/1000 SFP Ethernet, supporting 1000Mbps full duplex with full wire-speed forwarding. Jumbo frames up to 10K bytes enhance throughput and transmission efficiency.
– **Port Failure Alarm**: Equipped with a relay alarm, configurable via DIP switch, to alert users of power failures or link disruptions.
– **Hardened Industrial Design**: Operates effectively in temperature ranges from -40 to 75°C (-40 to 167°F) and includes redundant power inputs through a terminal block connector. Supports DIN-rail mounting for easy installation in industrial settings.
– **Link-Fault-Pass-Through (LFPT)**: Continuously monitors connected links. In the event of a link failure, the converter propagates the fail state across the network, disabling both the fiber and copper links at the opposite ends.
