OmniConverter® GHPoE/S

User Manual

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The OmniConverter GHPoE/S is a multi-port media converter that converts

10/100/1000BASE-T copper to 1000BASE-X or 100BASE-X ber and supports Power
over Ethernet up to 60 watts. Classied as Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), the

GHPoE/S can provide power to one or two Powered Devices (PDs) using standard
UTP cables that carry the Ethernet data.

The main function of the PSE is to automatically detect a PD, classify the PD and supply
power to the link (only if a PD is detected). The PSE detects a PD by applying a low
voltage on the cable and then looks for a signature from the attached PD. A compliant

PD is required to have the valid signature. Classication of the PD is done to determine
the maximum power levels required by the PD. After the PD is classied, the PSE will
allow the PD to draw power up to the maximum classication level.

The GHPoE/S automatically preforms the detection, classication and powering

functions. It supports IEEE 802.3af PoE (15W) and IEEE 802.3at PoE+ (30W) standard.
It can also provide up to 60W PoE per RJ-45 port for latest high-power outdoor PDs
such as cameras and Wi-Fi access points.

DIP-switch Denitions for Models with 2 Fiber Port

SW1 and SW2: F/O Speed “100/1000”

These DIP-switches congure the speed of the transceivers installed in the SFP ports. If

these DIP-switches are in the Down (default) position, the ports will automatically detect
the data rate of the transceivers installed and operate at 100M or 1000M accordingly.
If these DIP-switches are in the UP position, a 100M capable transceivers must be
installed in the SFP ports.

When an RJ-45 transceiver is installed in a SFP receptacle or for xed ber models,

setting this DIP-switch to Up “100” position enables the port to operate at 100Mbps*.

*Special compatibility mode for the xed ber models only.

SW3, SW4 and SW5: RJ-45 Conguration

These DIP-switches congure the rst RJ-45 port on the module (Port 2 on a single ber
model and Port 3 on a dual ber model). The second RJ-45 port is always congured

for auto-negotiation.

When DIP-switch SW3 is in the Down “AN” position, SW4 and SW5 are ignored.

RJ-45 Port Conguration Matrix

SW6: Pause “On/Off”

In auto-negotiation mode, setting this DIP-switch to the Up “On” position allows the
unit to advertise Symmetrical and Asymmetrical Pause capability. In auto-negotiation
mode, setting the DIP-switch to the Down “Off” position allows the unit to advertise no
Pause capability. In the manual mode, this DIP-switch determines the Symmetrical
Pause behavior of the ports.

SW7: Power Sourcing “Enable/Disable”, RJ-45 Port

The OmniConverter automatically detects the attached PD and provides the equipment
with the necessary power.

This DIP-switch controls the power sourcing for rst RJ-45 port on the module (Port 2
on the single ber models and Port 3 on dual ber models). When this DIP-switch in

the Down “On” position, the power sourcing is enabled. When the DIP-switch is in the
Up “Off” position, the power sourcing is disabled.

SW8: Power Sourcing “Enable/Disable”, RJ-45 Port

This DIP-switch controls the power sourcing for the second RJ-45 port on the module

(Port 3 on the single ber models and Port 4 on dual ber models). When this DIP-

switch in the Down “On” position, the power sourcing is enabled. When the DIP-switch
is in the Up “Off” position, the power sourcing is disabled.

SW9, SW10 “Normal/Forced” PoE Power Mode

This DIP-switch allows the PoE power to be forced ON when connected to a PD with
non-standard detection characteristics.

DIP-switch SW9 controls the forced capability for the rst RJ-45 port on the module
(Port 2 on the single ber models and Port 3 on dual ber models) and SW10 controls
the forced capability for the second RJ-45 port on the module (Port 3 on the single ber
models and Port 4 on dual ber models).

When these DIP-switches are in the Down “Normal” position, the port will automatically

preform the detection, classication and powering functions for the attached PD. When

these DIP-switches are in the Up “Forced” position, a maximum of 60 watts of power
will be available to the PD.

SW11: MAC Learning “On/Off”

When this DIP-switch is in the Down “On” position, all ports on the module will learn the
source MAC address of each received packet and store the address so packets destined
for the stored addresses can be forwarded to the appropriate interface on the module.
