Black Box LGC5600A
Gigabit Ethernet PoE++ Media Converter (Copper to Fiber)
The Black Box LGC5600A is a high-performance Gigabit media converter designed to seamlessly convert copper Ethernet signals (10/100/1000BASE-T) to fiber (1000BASE-X or 100BASE-X via SFP). Perfect for environments that require both data and power over long distances, this device doubles as a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), delivering up to 60 W of PoE++ to remote devices—ideal for powering cameras, access points, and similar network endpoints.
Features :
Equipped with configurable features such as PoE power reset and link-fault propagation, the LGC5600A provides administrators with robust tools for remote control and network reliability. The device supports jumbo frames up to 10,240 bytes, enhancing performance for high-bandwidth applications. Its compact form factor allows for flexible mounting: tabletop, wall, DIN-rail, or 1U rack shelf.
Advanced Options :
This media converter supports both multimode and single-mode fiber using standard or CWDM SFPs and is backward-compatible with older PoE standards (802.3af/at). Built to last, the LGC5600A includes environmental certifications such as UL, CE, FCC Class A, RoHS, WEEE, and REACH. It also comes with Black Box’s 2-Year Double Diamond™ Warranty, offering repair or replacement at no cost for manufacturing defects.
