Looking for a PoE switch with dual SFP ports (alien.top)

I’m stringing aerial fibre between poles for about 1km. Along the way, I’d like to install security cameras. Each pole has power (347V, with 120V 50kVA control transformers), so I have capacity to power the switches.

The only solution I’ve found, so far, is to use a single copper-fibre media converter AND a PoE media converter with dual Ethernet ports and a single SFP port. The PoE port can power the camera and the second is connected to the single-port media converter.
