Description

Convert and extend a Gigabit Ethernet connection up to 24.8 miles (40km) over Single Mode LC fiber.

This Gigabit Ethernet to fiber media converter offers a reliable way to extend your network up to 40 km (24.8 mi.) using single-mode LC fiber, providing increased range, enhanced security, and reduced interference compared to copper-based connections. It's TAA compliant and designed for government and commercial applications where long-distance and rack-mountable fiber access is needed.

Built for Versatility and Performance

Convert 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 to Gigabit LC fiber using a media converter that complies with IEEE 802.3 standards. It supports full/half duplex, auto-negotiation, MDI/MDI-X, and 9K jumbo frames for high-performance networking in mixed copper-fiber environments.

Smart Diagnostics and Rugged Design

Built with a compact full metal chassis, this converter includes LED indicators for power and link activity, plus a DIP switch to enable Link Fault Passthrough (LFP) with LLCF/LLR for easier network troubleshooting and reliability.

Flexible Installation for Any Network Setup

Deploy in minutes with plug-and-play setup and multiple mounting options including wall-mount, DIN-rail, or media chassis installation. It includes a 5V DC, 2A power adapter, making it ideal for server rooms or network closets.
