050-143 PRODUCT BRIEF
Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) Media Converter, Flange Mount
10/100/1000BASE-T to Fiber Optic Ethernet (SX, LX10 or FX)
10/100/1000BASE-T to 1000BASE-SX or 1000BASE-LX10
The Glenair 050-143 Flange Mount Copper to Fiber Media Converter can be
configured as either Single Channel or Dual Channel and can convert
10/100/1000BASE-T to 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX or 100BASE-FX protocols.
It is designed for harsh environments and incorporates electronics in an
environmentally sealed enclosure that incorporates three environmental M38999
connectors. The power supply is designed to accept a wide DC input voltage
range, 18V to 36V and dirty 28V power as defined in DO-160. Power is supplied
through a 38999 with standard #22D contacts. Signal I/O passes through a 38999
with a combination of Quadrax and #22D contacts and Fiber Optics passes
through a 38999 using M29504 contacts which can be configured to support either
single mode or multi-mode fiber applications.
