EtherWAN’s EL1142 series provides two independent media conversion paths between 2 x 10/100BASE-T and 2 x 100BASE-SX-LX fiber. Similar to the EL1141 series media converter,the EL1142 includes the hardened construction and high performance needed for mission critical applications, including power substation automation. However, the EL1142 series offers twice the port density in the same housing dimensions, providing greater flexibility and requiring less space for installation.

In addition, being compliant with the IEC61850-3/IEEE 1613 certification, the EL1142 meets standards for applications in power substation automation.
