The Industrial SFP/SFP Multi-Power Mode Converter installs anywhere as a standalone, table-top device or on a DIN rail.
As a standalone device, install it in locations with limited space.
If multiple connections are required, use an IE-PowerTray/18 enclosure (sold separately). The tray allows for 18 conversions in a 1.5 rack unit of space. The units can also be powered by daisy-chaining DC power (refer to Cascading DC Power).
