What This Converter Does

The Intellinet 545068 is a Gigabit WDM bi-directional media converter that links copper Ethernet to single-mode fiber. It is built for network managers who need to extend a 10/100/1000 Mbps segment over long distances without laying a second fiber strand. The rackmount unit fits standard cabinets and operates transparently on the existing network.

The Distance That Decides Fit

This model reaches 20 km (12.4 miles) over a single fiber strand using 1550 nm receive and 1310 nm transmit wavelengths. That specific reach and wavelength pairing determines whether the link matches your site-to-site span. If the run is shorter or the paired unit uses different wavelengths, this converter will not establish a link.

The Paired Unit Requirement

The converter must be used with the matching 545075 model on the far end to complete the bi-directional path. Without that counterpart, the single-strand WDM connection cannot function. The box includes status LEDs for link monitoring and an RJ45 port with Auto MDI/MDI-X, but no additional cables or management software are supplied.
