Product Features
Technical Overview
Engineered for multi-mode fiber applications, the FDX4DM1A uses 62.5/125 µm core/cladding specification to ensure compatibility with standard multi-mode fiber infrastructure. Its dual-wavelength support at 1310 nm and 1550 nm provides versatility for various optical transmission requirements, delivering data rates that meet demanding network performance standards.
The transceiver includes a dedicated power supply for stable operation, eliminating dependency on PoE or external power adapters. Its single optical port simplifies connectivity while maintaining focus on efficient signal conversion over fiber media.
Key Product Advantages
This transceiver excels in extending network reach with fiber optics, offering superior distance support and signal integrity compared to copper-based solutions. Its multi-mode design and dual wavelengths make it a practical choice for upgrading or expanding existing fiber networks without requiring single-mode infrastructure.
Long-Distance Connectivity
Supports up to 3 km (1.86 miles) over multi-mode fiber, enabling reliable data transmission across campuses, between buildings, or in large facilities where distance is a critical factor.
- Eliminates copper distance limitations
- Maintains signal quality over extended runs
Flexible Installation
Rack, wall, surface, and rail mounting options provide deployment versatility, allowing the transceiver to be placed in server racks, on walls, or in tight spaces as needed.
- Saves rack space with compact design
- Adapts to diverse environmental layouts
Deployment / Use Cases
The FDX4DM1A is suited for scenarios requiring fiber-optic extension between network segments. It connects switches, routers, or other devices over multi-mode fiber, bridging gaps where direct copper connections are impractical due to distance or interference.
Common applications include linking separate floors in a building, connecting remote offices within a campus, or integrating industrial equipment in manufacturing plants. Its robust construction and power supply support continuous operation in environments with electrical noise or harsh conditions.
Campus Network Extension
Extend Ethernet or data signals between buildings up to 3 km apart using existing multi-mode fiber cabling, maintaining network integrity without signal degradation.
Industrial Networking
Deploy in factories or warehouses to connect PLCs, sensors, or control systems over fiber, avoiding electromagnetic interference common in industrial settings.
