Planar H10FN Fiber to CAT Transceiver – 1U for Z6 PRO

Product Overview

The Planar H10FN is a 1U rack-mount fiber-to-CAT transceiver required for use with the Planar Z6 PRO processor. It converts one 10Gb single-mode fiber input into ten 1Gb CAT outputs, distributing signal from the processor to the LED video wall over copper cabling. The rack-mount form factor integrates into standard AV equipment racks alongside the processor. It functions as a signal distribution component in the Z6 PRO LED video wall signal chain.

Product Description

The H10FN provides the fiber-to-copper conversion stage between a Planar Z6 PRO processor and the receiver cards in an LED video wall. It accepts a single 10Gb single-mode fiber input and breaks it out into ten 1Gb CAT outputs, allowing the processor to feed multiple cabinet groups over standard CAT cabling. The 1U rack-mount chassis is designed to install in an equipment rack near the processor, supporting organized centralized distribution rather than scattered breakout devices. Because the H10FN is required for Z6 PRO operation, it should be specified whenever that processor drives a fiber-distributed wall. The number of transceivers and CAT runs depends on the cabinet count and the data mapping of the wall. As a defined component of the Z6 PRO ecosystem, it should be matched to the processor, fiber plant, and receiver topology of the overall design. For organizations building or expanding a Planar LED system, related processing and infrastructure components can be reviewed through the Planar collection at Creation Networks. Exact CAT output assignments and total transceiver count vary by installation. For compatibility confirmation and quantity planning for your Z6 PRO system, contact Creation Networks to confirm.
