AMG release new AMG265M Series

AMG introduces the world’s smallest, mains-powered Full-featured 90W PoE industrial gigabit media converter

ISO 9001 certified, AMG265M ultra-compact media converter is offered as non-PoE, 30W PoE, 90W PoE models and has integrated mains power.

Biggleswade, UK. December 1, 2024. AMG Systems of the United Kingdom and USA introduced the AMG265M industrially hardened, ultra-compact fiber optic Gigabit Ethernet media converter that is directly powered by available 85 – 264VAC power. Models within the series feature either screw terminals or IEC connectors. Available as both non-PoE models and PoE models with IEEE802.3at 30W or IEEE802.3bt 60/90W PoE available. The AMG265M PoE PSE models are suitable for powering the latest high-power requirement PoE IP devices in difficult applications requiring equipment to be industrially hardened and immune from temperature, shock, and vibration.

The ultra-compact AMG265M models are produced in a rugged, thermally efficient enclosure designed to be DIN-Rail, wall mounted, or with an industry-first magnetic mount option. The AMG265M ultra-compact size equates to a 74% reduction in volumetric size compared to other industrial DIN rail media converters, solving installation density challenges. The line is fully hardened and can operate outdoors in suitable IP-rated housing and extreme temperatures (-30 to +75°C). Integrating smart functionality provides the user with numerous field-selectable intelligent features such as link-fault pass-through, remote device reset, and extended distance mode for the copper cable. The AMG265M series miniature media converters are suited for connecting IP equipment to Ethernet networks that require optical fiber to achieve longer transmission distances. The AMG265M uses a dual-speed 100Mb/1Gb SFP port for connectivity, and AMG offers a wide range of SFPs for fiber, connector type, and distance. The AMG265M Series media converters are designed in the USA and UK and manufactured in an ISO9001-certified UK facility, are designed to NEMA standards and are fully TAA and NDAA compliant, and unlike similar products from other Asian countries, can be used in all US Government installations.

Steve Clarke, AMG's Managing Director, said, “AMG is known for our innovative approach to product design. With space being at a premium in most installations, the AMG 265M is easily the smallest, most full-featured media converter available today.” “Our unparalleled manufacturing process allows AMG to offer a wide range of transmission products at very cost-effective levels while maintaining ISO9001 quality, the AMG 265M is another example,” Clarke concluded.

Tom Exley, AMG Technical Director adds “The AMG265M continues our quality standard. Our engineering team looked at what was currently available, identified weaknesses, and engineered the AMG265M to overcome those weaknesses. Offering a media converter that requires no external power supply and can be easily connected to any available AC power supply is a simple solution for our customers and one less thing to potentially fail. The AMG265M has no equal in terms of this unique ultra-compact size, industrially hardened, with full 90W PoE capability, made in an ISO9001-certified facility, and most importantly, available when you need them. We believe in the quality and stand behind them with lifetime support. This media converter solves the density challenge, allowing the user to utilize more devices in a smaller area. Plus having a product made in the UK gives your network an added layer of security.”

AMG believes having products in stock, being fully supported by the AMG design team, and being covered by the AMG Lifetime Warranty gives AMG customers worldwide a measurable advantage in today’s competitive marketplace.
