Description
Product Overview
The EtherWAN EX42011-2E-1-A is an industrial Fast Ethernet media converter connecting one 10/100BASE-TX RJ45 port to a 100BASE-FX single-mode WDM fiber interface. Its single SC optical connection transmits at 1310 nm and receives at 1550 nm over a compatible single fiber, with a manufacturer-rated 20 km reach. A 12–48VDC terminal-block input, 4 kV data-port surge protection and a compact IP30 enclosure suit properly protected industrial cabinets. Use a compatible complementary TX 1550 nm / RX 1310 nm endpoint and verify optical losses and DC power before deployment.
The EtherWAN EX42011-2E-1-A is an EX42011 Series industrial 10/100BASE-TX to 100BASE-FX media converter listed by Coremicro, based in Union City, California. EtherWAN specifies the 2E option as 20 km single-mode WDM with an SC connector, 1310 nm transmit wavelength and 1550 nm receive wavelength. The unit has one RJ45 copper interface and one fixed 100BASE-FX fiber interface, a 12–48VDC terminal-block input, 1.82W maximum power consumption, reverse-polarity protection, ±4 kV signal-port surge protection, an IP30 plastic enclosure and a -10°C to +60°C operating range. A 35 mm DIN-rail mounting kit is listed as included. Coremicro displays Special Order and Authorized Dealer designations. Confirm current supply, warranty coverage, power-supply accessories and a matching 1550 nm TX / 1310 nm RX optical endpoint before ordering.
10/100BASE-TX to 100BASE-FX Conversion
One RJ45 copper interface connects compatible 10/100 Mbps equipment to a 100 Mbps fiber link. This device is a Fast Ethernet media converter, not a Gigabit Ethernet converter.
20 km Single-Mode WDM Fiber Reach
The 2E optical option is manufacturer-rated for up to 20 km over compatible single-mode fiber. WDM uses different wavelengths for sending and receiving on one fiber strand; actual reach depends on the loss budget.
SC BiDi Optics: 1310 nm TX / 1550 nm RX
The fixed SC optical interface transmits at 1310 nm and receives at 1550 nm. The far end must have the complementary 1550 nm TX / 1310 nm RX optical arrangement, such as EtherWAN option 2G, with matching distance and fiber specifications.
12–48VDC Input and Low Power Draw
The terminal-block input accepts 12–48VDC. EtherWAN specifies a maximum 1.82W device power consumption and reverse-polarity protection. Confirm whether a compatible external power supply is included in the purchase.
4 kV Signal-Port Surge Protection
EtherWAN lists ±4 kV line-to-ground surge protection on the signal port under EN 61000-4-5. Correct grounding, cabling and any additional site-level protective measures remain important.
Compact DIN-Rail or Panel Installation
The IP30 plastic enclosure measures 26 × 70 × 110 mm and supports 35 mm DIN-rail or panel mounting. EtherWAN includes a DIN-rail mounting kit and rates operation from -10°C to +60°C.
