MOXA Industrial Media Converter IMC-21 series consists of entry-level 10/100BaseT(X) to 100BaseFX and 10BaseT to 10BaseFL media converters that are specially designed for reliable and stable operation in harsh industrial environments. IMC-21 is a cost-effective solution that runs on either a 12 to 45 VDC power input or 18 to 30 VAC power input. IMC-21 can operate reliably in temperatures ranging from -10 to 60°C, and the rugged hardware design helps ensure that your Ethernet equipment can withstand demanding industrial conditions.
DC or AC Power Input Options
With IMC-21 Media Converter, you can choose either a 12 to 45 VDC power input or 18 to 30 VAC power input. The 24 VAC power input is designed especially for applications in the building automation field, for which power inputs are often restricted.
Link Fault Pass-Through
IMC-21's "Link Fault Pass-Through" feature overcomes a problem encountered when using traditional media converters. The problem is that when one side of the link fails, the other side continues transmitting packets, and then waits for a response that never arrives from the disconnected side. What IMC-21 does is force the link to shut down as soon as it notices that the other link has failed, giving the application software a chance to react.
