Product Features
Technical Overview
Engineered for Gigabit Ethernet performance, the TMC-GSFP supports 10/100/1000Base-TX over copper and 1000Base-FX over fiber, ensuring full gigabit throughput. The device features one RJ-45 port for copper connectivity and one SFP (mini-GBIC) slot for fiber optic modules, allowing customization based on fiber type and distance requirements.
Power is supplied via DC input, and the compact dimensions of 1.10" H x 3.30" W x 2.50" D make it easy to install in space-constrained locations. The converter is environmentally compliant with RoHS and WEEE standards, reflecting a commitment to reduced hazardous substances and proper electronic waste management.

FAQ
What does this media converter do?
The Hanwha Techwin TMC-GSFP converts Gigabit Ethernet signals between a standard RJ-45 copper port and an SFP fiber optic slot. It allows you to connect copper-based network equipment to fiber optic cabling, extending network distance and improving signal integrity over long runs.
What types of fiber does it support?
This converter supports both single-mode and multi-mode fiber optic cables. Single-mode is typically used for longer distances up to 120 km, while multi-mode is suited for shorter campus or building links. You need to install a compatible SFP module matching your fiber type.
How far can it transmit data over fiber?
The maximum supported distance is 120 km (approximately 74.56 miles) when using appropriate single-mode fiber and SFP modules. This makes it ideal for connecting remote buildings or extending network segments beyond the limits of copper Ethernet cabling.
What are the mounting options?
The TMC-GSFP offers two mounting options: standalone placement on a flat surface like a desk or shelf, and DIN rail mounting for secure installation in industrial control panels or network racks. This flexibility suits both office and harsh environment deployments.
What power source does it require?
The converter is powered by DC input. You will need to provide a compatible DC power adapter (not included) to operate the device. Ensure the power supply matches the required voltage and current specifications for reliable performance.
Is this converter plug-and-play?
Yes, the TMC-GSFP operates as a plug-and-play device with no software configuration needed. Simply connect the RJ-45 port to your copper network, insert an SFP module into the slot, attach fiber cabling, and apply power. It automatically handles the media conversion at gigabit speeds.
