PTC-101-S-SC-LV – Media Converter with SC Singlemode Fiber and 20–72 VDC Input

The Moxa PTC-101-S-SC-LV is an industrial-grade Ethernet-to-fiber media converter designed for critical environments like power substations and automation systems. This model features a 10/100BaseT(X) RJ45 port and a 100BaseFX single-mode SC fiber interface, capable of transmitting data across distances up to 40 km.

Designed in accordance with IEC 61850-3, it ensures high resilience against temperature extremes, electrical noise, and vibrations. The LV version supports redundant DC power inputs (20–72 VDC) and integrates a relay alarm for power failure detection.
