Omnitron Systems Launches Single-Pair Ethernet Converter/PoE+ Injector Products

Irvine, CA – July 16, 2024 – Omnitron Systems (www.omnitron-systems.com), a leading provider of Ethernet, Power over Ethernet (PoE), and fiber network products, announced the launch of two new ultra-compact Single-Pair Ethernet T1L media converter/injector products.

The new OmniConverter® Single-Pair Ethernet converters are IEEE 802.3cg compliant products that convert between standard 10Mbps 10BASE-T Ethernet and single-pair 10BASE-T1L Ethernet. The Single-Pair Ethernet (SPE) cabling enables Full Duplex over the Single-Pair 10Mbps Ethernet link to reach distance up to 1km.

Both the OmniConverter® 10T/T1L and the 10TPS/T1L Converter models features one 2-pin terminal block 10BASE-T1L IEEE 802.3cg compliant port and one 10BASE-T RJ-45 Ethernet port supporting 10Mbps full duplex data rates.

The OmniConverter® 10TPS/T1L Converter/Injector supports PoE+ IEEE 802.3at power injection through its 10BASE-T RJ-45 port.

The OmniConverter® Single-Pair Ethernet converters achieve seamless Ethernet connectivity to IEEE 802.3cg compliant devices, such as field transmitters, building controllers or cameras.

The modules are plug-and-play devices that support 10Mbps data rates and full duplex for simple in-line installation to instantly extend network distances for industrial and in-building automation applications.

The converter/injector products are available as a standalone unit with or without integrated mounting brackets, and they can be DIN-rail mounted using the optional DIN-rail mounting clip kit (8252-0). Models are available with an external 100 to 240VAC power adapter or with a 2-Pin DC terminal connector.

“The new Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) standard IEEE 802.3ag for 10BASE-T1L provides the ability to extend Ethernet beyond the 100m tradition limit of copper cable, while ensuring compatibility with existing Ethernet protocols,” said Sankar Ramachandran, Direct of Product  Management.   

Sankar added “Until 10BASE-T1L interfaces become common in switches and other end-devices, media converters such as the OmniConverter® 10T/T1L can be used to adapt between the 10BASE-T and 10BASE-T1L and extend standard Ethernet up to 1 kilometer (versus the normal 100m range of 10BASE-T)”.

He then added that “using the OmniConverter® 10TPS/T1L as the second Media Converter in this configuration allows for injection of power to the PoE camera.”

The OmniConverter® 10T/T1L and10TPS/T1L media converters are available in Commercial (0° to 50°C), Wide (-40° to 60°C) and Extended (-40° to 75°C) operating temperature range models. 

The OmniConverter® 10T/T1L  and 10TPS/T1L media converters are designed and manufactured in the USA. They are TAA, BAA, and NDAA compliant and come with free 24/7 US-based technical support and a Lifetime Warranty.
