About the Omnitron Systems OmniConverter G/M 2839-1-24-1
The OmniConverter G/M is a compact gigabit Ethernet switch that features fiber or copper uplink ports and four or eight 10/100/1000 RJ-45 copper user ports. The OmniConverter G/M enables network distance extension with fiber or copper cabling.
The OmniConverter G/M is a standard Layer 2 Ethernet switch that forwards frames to any port based on their MAC address.
The OmniConverter G/M supports Directed Switch mode, which directs multicast traffic (such as video) only to the appropriate uplink port, preventing the multicast video traffic from flooding other network ports.
Models with two fiber or two copper uplink ports support redundant uplinks, industrial ring Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP), Spanning Tree protocol and daisy-chain configurations for high availability industrial network applications.
Models with two fiber or two copper uplink ports also support Dual Device mode that enables the G/M to operate as two independent and isolated Ethernet switches. In Dual Device mode, the G/M provides separate and independent data traffic paths between the two uplink ports and four or eight RJ-45 user ports.
The mode of operation can be configured using easily accessible DIP-switches or using Web, Telnet, SSH, SNMPv1/v2c/v3 or Serial Console management interfaces. IPv4 and IPv6 are supported on the switches. These management interfaces provide access to filtering and security options, such as, broadcast storm prevention, IGMP, IEEE 802.1x, RADIUS, TACACS+ and Access Control Lists. Email notification and alarm reporting is provided.
Models are available with fixed ST, SC, and LC fiber connectors or Small Form Pluggable (SFP) transceiver receptacles. Fiber ports support multimode or single-mode and dual fiber or single-fiber with distances up to 140 km. SFP models support a variety of distances in standard, CWDM and DWDM wavelengths.
All models can be wall mounted, rack mounted using a shelf or DIN-rail mounted using DIN-rail mounting clips. They are available with an external 100 to 240V AC power adapter or with a DC terminal connector.
