Key Product Advantages
The S4110-4848-NA media converter delivers high-performance fiber optic connectivity with flexibility and ease of deployment. Its dual SFP+ slots enable customization for different fiber optic scenarios, such as single-mode or multimode, LC or SC connectors, and varying distance requirements. The standalone design eliminates the need for rack mounting, simplifying installation in space-constrained locations. With support for optical fiber, it ensures reliable data transmission over long distances while minimizing signal degradation and interference, making it ideal for critical network segments.
Flexible Fiber Compatibility
Two SFP+ slots accept a wide range of SFP+ transceiver modules, allowing adaptation to specific fiber optic cable types, connector styles, and distance needs without replacing the entire unit.
Low-Power Operation
Consumes only 4.20 watts, reducing energy costs and heat output for continuous operation in data center or enterprise environments.
Deployment / Use Cases
This media converter is well-suited for extending 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks over fiber optic cabling in various settings. Common applications include connecting network switches or routers across buildings in campus environments, where fiber provides the necessary distance and bandwidth. It can also integrate into data center architectures to link equipment racks or support backbone connections that require high-speed, low-latency fiber links. The standalone form factor makes it practical for temporary installations, remote office setups, or industrial control systems where rack space is unavailable.
Campus Network Extension
Deploy between buildings to leverage fiber optic cabling for long-distance, high-bandwidth connections without signal loss, supporting VoIP, video surveillance, or data transfer needs.
Data Center Fiber Aggregation
Use to aggregate 10 Gigabit Ethernet links from servers or switches over fiber, ensuring reliable performance in core network segments with minimal latency.
Physical Profile
The media converter features a compact standalone enclosure measuring 1" (25.40 mm) in height, 3.25" (82.55 mm) in width, and 6.50" (165.10 mm) in depth, with an approximate weight of 2 lb (907.18 g). Its small footprint allows placement on desks, shelves, or in network closets, and the lightweight design facilitates easy relocation if needed. The durable construction supports stable operation in typical office or data center environments, with ventilation considerations for heat dissipation during continuous use.
