Product Description
Upgrade to Gigabit Ethernet economically. When paired with low - cost 1000BASE - T switches, businesses can enjoy high - bandwidth Gigabit Ethernet without high costs. Transition Networks' converters extend bandwidth for users beyond the 1000BASE - T standard range (up to 125 km). It converts 1000Base - T (RJ - 45, up to 100 m/328 ft.) to 1000Base - SX 850nm multimode SC Duplex (62.5/125µm fiber OM1, up to 220 m/722 ft.). Key features include auto - negotiation for both copper and fiber, transparent link pass - through which sends link - loss signals over fiber, automatic link restoration in all network conditions, pause signaling to handle data transmission overload, and remote fault detect to notify local devices of remote fiber RX loss. Technical specs cover standards, fiber optic connector details, switch settings, status LEDs, dimensions, power requirements, environment conditions, shipping weight, safety and regulatory compliance, and a lifetime warranty.
Using this Transition Networks media converter is straightforward. First, connect it to an external AC/DC power supply of 12V DC, 1.5A. Make sure it's in an environment with a temperature between 0 - 50°C and humidity of 5% - 95% non - condensing, and at an altitude of 0 - 10,000 feet. Connect the copper side to your 1000Base - T device and the fiber side to the appropriate fiber network. The status LEDs will help you monitor the connection. A steady green PWR LED means it's getting power. When you see flashing RXF or RXC LEDs, data is being received. For maintenance, keep it clean and free from dust. Check the connections regularly to ensure a stable link. If you encounter any issues, refer to the technical specifications and try adjusting the 6 - position switches according to your needs. Remember, this product comes with a lifetime warranty, so you can use it with confidence.
