The Moxa PTC-101 Series are rugged industrial Ethernet-to-fiber media converters that convert 10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet to 100BaseFX fiber. Designed to comply with IEC 61850-3, they support critical applications in power substations, energy distribution, and industrial automation by ensuring high reliability under extreme environmental conditions such as surge, ESD, vibration, and wide operating temperatures.

With built-in power supplies, Link Fault Pass-Through (LFPT), redundant DC inputs (LV models only), and power failure relay alarms (LV only), these converters offer a robust and compact solution for extending Ethernet networks over fiber.
