Product Features
Technical Overview
This media converter operates at layer 2, transparently converting electrical signals from the RJ-45 port to optical signals through the SFP slot. It supports auto-negotiation and auto-MDI/MDIX on the copper side, ensuring plug-and-play compatibility with switches, routers, and end devices. The integrated SFP slot accepts industry-standard SFP transceivers, allowing customization for single-mode or multimode fiber, with LC or SC connectors, to match specific distance and fiber type requirements.
With a maximum data transfer rate of 1000 Mbit/s, it maintains line-rate performance without packet loss. The maximum supported distance is 0.10 km (approximately 100 meters) over twisted pair, while fiber distance depends on the installed SFP module. The device consumes only 2.20 watts, contributing to energy-efficient network operations.

User Manual
FAQ
What does this media converter do?
The Lantronix SGFEB1040-130-OZ converts network signals between twisted pair copper (RJ-45) and fiber optic (SFP) media. It allows devices using standard Ethernet cables to connect to fiber optic network segments, extending distance and improving signal integrity in environments with electrical interference.
What types of cables and connections does it support?
It supports twisted pair copper cables (like Cat5e/6) via its RJ-45 port and optical fiber via an SFP slot. The RJ-45 side handles 10/100/1000Base-T, while the SFP slot supports 100/1000Base-X, compatible with industry-standard SFP transceivers for single-mode or multimode fiber with LC or SC connectors.
What is the maximum distance it can support?
Over twisted pair copper, the maximum supported distance is 0.10 km (approximately 100 meters). For fiber optic connections, the distance depends on the SFP module installed; common SFP modules can support distances from 550 meters up to several kilometers, depending on fiber type and module specifications.
How is this device powered?
It is powered by an included AC adapter, which plugs into a standard power outlet. The converter has low power consumption of 2.20 watts, making it energy-efficient for continuous operation in network deployments.
What mounting options are available?
The converter offers four mounting options: wall-mountable for surface installation, rack-mountable for standard 19-inch racks, rail-mountable for DIN rails in industrial settings, and standalone for desktop use. This versatility allows installation in data centers, telecom closets, control rooms, or field locations.
Is this product compliant with government procurement standards?
Yes, it is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, making it suitable for U.S. government and public sector purchases. It also meets environmental standards including RoHS, REACH, and WEEE, ensuring it adheres to restrictions on hazardous substances and electronic waste regulations.
