Product Features
Technical Overview
This media converter operates on 10 Gigabit Ethernet technology with 10GBase-T network standards, ensuring compatibility with modern high-speed network equipment. It supports twisted pair copper cabling, which is cost-effective and widely deployed, while providing an XFP slot for fiber optic transceiver insertion to extend connectivity over fiber.
The module is designed for internal installation, fitting into designated slots within networking hardware. This integration minimizes external cabling and reduces physical footprint in rack or cabinet setups. Environmental certifications including REACH, RoHS, and WEEE compliance ensure responsible manufacturing and disposal practices.
Key Product Advantages
This media converter offers distinct advantages for network architects and IT managers. It enables the use of existing twisted pair infrastructure while extending reach with fiber optics through the XFP slot, providing flexibility in network design. The lifetime warranty underscores Perle's commitment to durability and long-term reliability in critical networking roles.
High-Speed Conversion
Delivers full 10 Gbps throughput between twisted pair and fiber media, maintaining network performance without bottlenecks in data-intensive applications.
Space-Efficient Design
Internal form factor eliminates external converter boxes, saving rack space and simplifying cable management in dense network environments.
Deployment / Use Cases
This media converter is suited for scenarios requiring media conversion in structured network environments. It can be deployed in enterprise networks to integrate new fiber equipment with legacy copper systems, or in data centers to optimize connectivity between different media types without replacing entire cabling infrastructures.
The internal installation makes it particularly valuable for OEM integrations or custom networking solutions where external converters would add complexity. Its support for twisted pair cabling reduces material costs compared to full fiber deployments, while still offering fiber extension capabilities through the XFP slot.
Data Center Integration
Connect 10GBase-T switches to fiber backbone networks within server racks, facilitating high-speed data transfer between copper and fiber segments.
Network Extension
Extend twisted pair connections up to 0.10 km by converting to fiber, useful for linking buildings or floors where direct copper runs are impractical.

FAQ
What does this media converter do?
This Perle media converter transforms 10GBase-T signals from twisted pair copper cabling to XFP fiber optic interfaces. It allows network equipment using RJ-45 ports to connect with fiber optic networks, enabling media conversion for extended reach or compatibility between different network segments.
What is the maximum distance supported?
The converter supports a maximum distance of 0.10 km (100 meters) over twisted pair cabling. This distance is typical for 10GBase-T over Cat6a or better cabling, making it suitable for within-building or campus deployments where fiber extension via the XFP slot can further increase reach if needed.
How is this media converter installed?
This converter features an internal form factor, meaning it installs inside compatible networking chassis or enclosures rather than as a standalone external device. This integrated approach reduces clutter, saves rack space, and provides a cleaner installation for structured network environments.
What type of fiber transceiver does it support?
The converter includes one XFP slot for fiber optic transceivers. XFP is a hot-swappable optical module format supporting various fiber types and distances. You can insert an appropriate XFP transceiver based on your fiber requirements, such as single-mode or multi-mode for different reach and bandwidth needs.
