Gigabit RJ45 to 1000BASE-SX SC Media Converter

This media converter bridges a 10/100/1000BASE-T copper link with a 1000BASE-SX multimode fibre link. It suits network engineers extending LAN segments beyond the 100 m copper limit. The unit provides a single RJ-45 port and a single SC port for duplex fibre connections.

Space-saving design with diagnostic LEDs

A compact enclosure fits crowded cabinets while unit and port LEDs give immediate link status. Auto-negotiation and auto-MDI/MDIX on the copper side remove crossover cable hassles. Fixed full-duplex on the fibre side and fixed link pass-through keep traffic flowing during fault isolation. Automatic link restoration re-establishes connectivity without manual intervention.

Extends copper runs to 220 m

The converter replaces a direct copper patch when distance exceeds 100 m. On 62.5/125 µm fibre the reach is 220 m with a 7.0 dB link budget; on 50/125 µm fibre it reaches 550 m. The upgrade is worth it when legacy copper infrastructure cannot meet the required segment length.

Questions about this item

What distance does the 1000BASE-SX SC port cover on 50/125 µm multimode fiber?

The 1000BASE-SX SC port supports up to 550 m (1804 ft) on 50/125 µm multimode fiber with a 7.0 dB link budget.

What physical ports are provided for copper and fiber connections?

One 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 port and one 1000BASE-SX SC multimode fiber port.

How is the converter powered and what step is often missed?

An external power adapter is required; the step often missed is connecting the adapter before linking the fiber and copper cables.
