The Prisma Mini Media Converter includes one fiber port that always operates at 100 Mbps FDX and one twisted
pair port that autosenses the connected device speed and duplex mode: 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps and HDX or FDX.
An operating temperature of up to 65°C makes it perfect for use in extreme temperature conditions. The converter
may be powered using the included AC power adapter, a USB power cord, or the 4-terminal DC power block that
has an extended voltage range (5 to 50 VDC). Additionally, the converter complies with the IEEE 802.3af PoE
standard. The PoE technology allows the Prisma Mini Media Converter to be a Powered Device (PD) and draw
power when connected to Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) that is also compliant with the IEEE 802.3af standard.

The Prisma Mini Media Converter Outdoor Housing gives the cable operator the ability to strand mount the Prisma
Mini Media Converter. The outdoor housing is water-tight and EMI-tight. Up to a four-fiber stub can be brought into
the housing. Either one or two fibers will connect to the Prisma Mini Media Converter. The remaining dark fibers
can be stowed as spares. A water-tight and EMI-tight fitting for entry of a shielded Ethernet cable into the housing is
supplied with the assembly. The Prisma Mini Media Converter in the outdoor housing is powered over Ethernet.
