The PTC-101 Series by Moxa includes high-reliability Ethernet-to-fiber media converters designed for demanding industrial environments, especially substations, in compliance with IEC 61850-3. With robust design, wide temperature tolerance, and multiple connector options (SC, ST, or LC), these converters are ideal for harsh field applications.

Supporting 10/100BaseT(X) with auto-negotiation and MDI/MDI-X, and 100BaseFX over multi-mode or single-mode fiber, they simplify network deployment. Features such as Link Fault Pass-Through (LFPT), power failure alarm (LV models), redundant power input, and built-in high-reliability power supply enhance availability and minimize downtime.
