About the PoE+ Giga-MiniMc
The PoE+ Giga-MiniMc is a solution for private network applications that require
power over Ethernet for locations inside buildings where PoE is required to power an
Ethernet device. The standalone unit offers a model with one SFP or fixed fiber
transceiver, 1x9, uplink for the network connection, and two PSE 10/100/1000Base-T
copper ports that provides Power-over-Ethernet (IEEE802.3af). As a fiber-fed
demarcation unit, it provides both power and data to a remote device over a
standard CAT5 copper line, eliminating the need for a power connection to the
remote device. The PoE+ Giga-MiniMc provides up to 25.4 watts per copper port
and is powered by an external AC adapter or DC terminal block.
The SFP uplink can support fiber or copper SFPs. The fiber SFP, available in SC or LC
connectors, supports 100FDX or 1000FDX; a copper SFP supports the SGMII
interface (10/100/1000Mbps). The SFP, with or without DDMI, is available for
purchase through IMC Networks Distributors. The SFP must be MSA-compliant.
The copper ports auto negotiate to the connected device’s speed and duplex mode:
10 Mbps, 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps, and HDX or FDX (including Flow Control). The
PoE+ Giga-MiniMc supports jumbo frames up to 10240.
Installation
PoE+ Giga-MiniMc installs virtually anywhere: as a standalone, table-top device, on a
DIN rail or using a Wallmount bracket. As a standalone device, the end user can
install PoE+ Giga-MiniMc in locations with extremely limited space. Velcro strips are
also included to attach the device to most surfaces. The DIN Rail clips and
Wallmount bracket are optional, available for purchase through an IMC Networks
Distributor.
Installation Tip
Several models of the PoE+ Giga-MiniMc support single-strand fiber for operation. Since
single-strand fiber products use optics that transmit and receive on two different wavelengths,
single-strand fiber products must be deployed in pairs. For example, connect a PoE+ Giga-
MiniMc, TX/SSLX-SM1310-SC (which has 1310 xmt and 1550 rcv) to a product which has
1550 xmt and 1310 rcv, e.g. PoE+ Giga-MiniMc, TX/SSLX-SM1550-SC. The two connected
products must also have the same speed and distance capabilities (i.e. both are single-mode
[20km] or both are single/PLUS [40km]).
NOTE
Unless noted otherwise, any reference is applicable for both the 1x9 and SFP version of
the
