Industrial 10G SFP+ PoE++ Media Converter TRENDnet TI-BF711SFP

The TRENDnet TI-BF711SFP is an industrial 10G SFP+ PoE++ media converter that links high-speed fiber SFP+ networks with powered copper or powered network segments. Built for harsh environments, this device supports 10 Gigabit SFP+ connectivity while providing PoE++ power delivery to compatible devices, enabling extended network reach with simultaneous power distribution over network cabling. The unit is intended for industrial network infrastructures, surveillance systems, and outdoor installations that require both 10G fiber links and PoE++ capability.

Advantages

The TI-BF711SFP combines 10G SFP+ fiber conversion with PoE++ power delivery in a single industrial-grade enclosure. Its design emphasizes reliable operation in demanding conditions and integration into existing fiber and copper segments without additional power supplies for endpoint devices that accept PoE++. The media converter reduces the need for separate power wiring and extends fiber network links while maintaining high bandwidth suitable for video, data aggregation, and time-sensitive applications.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit fiber backbone extensions between facilities or network segments
• Powering PoE++ capable devices such as high-power cameras, wireless access points, or other powered network equipment
• Industrial Ethernet and surveillance deployments in harsh or outdoor environments
• Aggregating high-bandwidth traffic from fiber to copper-based switch ports

Key specifications

• 10G SFP+ fiber interface for high-speed uplink connectivity
• PoE++ power delivery to connected devices over copper network port
• Industrial-grade enclosure designed for deployment in demanding environments
• Media conversion between fiber SFP+ links and powered copper network segments

How to use

Install the TRENDnet TI-BF711SFP at a network junction where a 10G SFP+ fiber link must interface with a powered copper segment. Insert a compatible 10G SFP+ transceiver into the SFP+ slot and connect the fiber cable to the transceiver. Connect the copper network port to the downstream PoE++ device or switch using appropriate Ethernet cabling. Ensure the media converter is mounted in a location that meets the environmental and cabling requirements for the site and that connected devices are compatible with PoE++ power levels. Configure any upstream or downstream network equipment as required for link aggregation, VLANs, or other network policies.

Usage recommendations

Use compatible 10G SFP+ transceivers and fiber cabling rated for the desired distance and bandwidth. Verify that downstream devices support PoE++ and that the available power budget meets device requirements. For outdoor or industrial installations, follow TRENDnet mounting and grounding guidelines and maintain proper environmental protection to ensure reliable operation.
