Product Features
Technical Overview
This media converter operates at a 1300 nm wavelength on multi-mode fiber, providing a practical solution for extending 10/100Base-TX networks over optical infrastructure. It features one RJ-45 port for copper connectivity and one SC port for fiber termination, with a total of five ports to accommodate various connection scenarios.
The device consumes only 6 watts of power from the included supply and supports both wall-mount and standalone deployment. Environmental compliance includes REACH, RoHS, and WEEE directives, and the unit is TAA compliant for government procurement.
This section brings together practical product details such as Total Number of Ports, Network (RJ-45), Number of Network (RJ-45) Ports, Media Type Supported, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
This converter extends network reach significantly beyond typical copper limitations while maintaining signal quality. The use of fiber optic media reduces electromagnetic interference and signal degradation over long runs, which is critical for stable network performance in extended campus or industrial settings.
Distance Extension
Supports fiber runs up to 2 kilometers, far exceeding the 100-meter limit of standard Cat5/Cat6 copper cabling.
- Eliminates need for additional switches or repeaters
- Maintains 100 Mbps throughput over extended distance
Installation Flexibility
The wall-mountable form factor allows for clean, organized installations in racks, cabinets, or directly on walls.
- Saves rack space in crowded network closets
- Includes mounting hardware for secure placement
Regulatory Compliance
Meets multiple environmental and trade agreement standards for broad deployment eligibility.
- TAA compliant for government contracts
- RoHS/REACH/WEEE compliant for environmental responsibility
Deployment / Use Cases
This media converter is ideal for network segments where copper infrastructure needs to bridge between buildings or across large facilities. The 2-kilometer fiber support makes it suitable for connecting separate structures on a campus, linking remote offices within an industrial complex, or extending network drops in warehouses and manufacturing plants.
Common applications include connecting edge switches to core network equipment over fiber backbone, integrating legacy T1/E1/J1 service links with modern Ethernet networks, and providing fiber uplinks for network devices in electrically noisy environments where copper would suffer interference.
Building-to-Building Connectivity
Connect network equipment between separate structures using existing or new fiber runs while maintaining Fast Ethernet speeds.
Industrial Network Extension
Extend network connectivity across manufacturing floors or warehouse spaces where long distances and EMI protection are concerns.
Physical Profile
The converter measures 1.80" (45.72 mm) in height, 3.70" (93.98 mm) in width, and 6.50" (165.10 mm) in depth, with a weight of approximately 2 pounds. This compact footprint supports both standalone desktop placement and secure wall mounting using integrated hardware. The design prioritizes practical installation in various environments without requiring dedicated rack space.
