Fiber Optic Media Converter SFP-slot - 2x ports RJ45

Want to connect two RJ45 devices to a fiber link at once, from a single compact unit? This media converter combines two 10/100/1000 Mbps ports with one open SFP slot, and a built-in power supply that plugs straight into mains. The fiber type and the distance you reach are up to you — you decide with the SFP module you place in the slot. That makes it as suitable for shorter indoor runs as for longer connections between locations, or for situations where you want to link an existing copper network to a new fiber line without major changes to your network layout.

Benefits

• Two RJ45 ports in a single unit — connect two devices to your fiber at the same time.
• Built-in power supply: plug it straight into mains, no separate adaptor.
• Works with both 100M and Gigabit fiber, so a smooth step up from older equipment.
• Open SFP slot — pick the module that fits your fiber link (multimode, single-mode or WDM).

Applications

• Link two devices — for example an IP camera and an access point — through the same fiber line.
• Upgrade from 100 Mbps to Gigabit without replacing your network equipment.
• Give a small switch without an SFP port a fiber uplink.
• Place it at a customer site as the endpoint of a business fiber connection.
• Connect access control or intercom equipment at a gate or entrance to your main network.
• Link equipment in interference-prone environments, for instance near machinery or along long cable runs.
• Suited to permanent installations in a patch cabinet or small network enclosure.
• Usable for temporary connections at construction sites, events or project locations.

Technical features

The converter supports 100BASE-FX and 1000BASE-SX/LX/WDM through the SFP slot, and meets the standard Ethernet specifications (IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab, 802.3z). It supports jumbo frames up to 9 KB for the smooth handling of larger network packets and has a Link Fault Pass-through function: a broken link on one side is signalled straight to the other, so faults are easier to track down. The copper ports detect the wiring layout automatically (MDI/MDI-X), so you don't have to worry about straight or crossover cables. The unit uses less than 3 W, carries CE, RoHS and FCC certification, and works reliably between 0 and +50 °C.

Want to put two devices onto your fiber in one go? Set this media converter in place, plug it into the mains and choose the SFP module that fits your link. Unsure which module you need? We're happy to help you pick.
