Gigabit Fiber to RJ45 Dongle

The StarTech media converter dongle bridges a Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 port to a singlemode fiber link up to 10 km or a multimode link up to 800 m. It draws power from a USB connection and fits in a compact metal housing suitable for field or desk deployment.

TAA Compliant Network Integration

IT teams that require TAA compliance for government or regulated projects can deploy this converter without additional qualification. Buyers needing a self-powered PoE injector or a multi-port aggregation switch should look at other product families.

USB Powered Plug-and-Play Setup

Installation is straightforward: connect the RJ45 side to the network device, attach the fiber patch cord, and plug the USB cable into any standard port for power. The most common issue is a mismatched singlemode or multimode fiber type, which prevents the link from establishing.

Questions about this item

What type of USB power source is needed to run the dongle?

Any standard USB port or USB charger that delivers 5 V will power the converter; the unit draws its supply from the USB connection.

Will this converter link to an existing Gigabit copper switch that follows IEEE 802.3ab?

Yes, the RJ45 side complies with IEEE 802.3ab so it will negotiate a Gigabit link with any compatible switch or router.

How can I confirm the fibre link is active after connecting the LC cable?

The LED marked for fibre link lights solid when a valid optical signal is detected at either the single-mode 10 km or multi-mode 800 m distance.
