Miniature Media
Converters:
Convert 10- or
100-Mbps copper ports
to fiber optic cable.
Bring fiber to the
desktop more
economically than
fiber NICs.
Compact size makes
them easy to integrate.
Autonegotiating for
speed and duplex.
Industrial MultiPower
Media Converters:
Four power options.
Convert 10-/100-Mbps
copper to duplex
or single-strand
100-Mbps fiber,
autonegotiating
for speed on the
copper side.
Single-Mode Long
versions support
distances up to
49.7 miles (80 km).
Operational from
-13 to +158° F.
Include clips for
mounting on DIN rails.
N
ow it’s easier than ever to
bring fiber to your network, no
matter if your network is spread
across a business campus, a
large industrial site, or over great
distances and/or subjected to
temperature extremes.
Choose from Miniature Media
Converters that bring fiber to the
desktop or hardened Industrial
MultiPower Media Converters
that can be powered up one of
four ways and operate in temper-
ature extremes from -13 to +158° F
(-25 to +70° C).
Good things, small packages.
Miniature Media Converters
are easy to install (literally plug-
and-play), tiny enough to fit in
anywhere, and very economical.
Use them to bring fiber to the
desktop or add fiber segments to
your network to gain extra
distance—up to 43.5 miles
(70 km) with single-mode fiber.
These media converters
enable you to use fiber
almost anywhere!
Key Features
MINIATURE MEDIA CONVERTERS
INDUSTRIAL MULTIPOWER MEDIA CONVERTERS
Twice the conversion power!
A Miniature Media Converter
enables you to connect 10-Mbps
and 100-Mbps twisted-pair
network segments to fiber optic
cabling. It’s both a media and data
rate converter with 10/100 auto-
negotiation on the twisted-pair
port. The fiber port operates at
100 Mbps.
You can also choose Gigabit
models to link 1000BASE-TX
twisted-pair network segments to
1000BASE-LX fiber optic cabling.
All Miniature Media Convert-
ers have an HDX/FDX function for
half- and full-duplex autosensing.
Installation is easy.
Just connect a Miniature
Media Converter to the RJ-45
connector on your PC’s 10- or
100-Mbps Ethernet port using
CAT5e cable, then connect fiber
optic cable to the other side of the
media converter.
What’s more, these tiny
converters tuck unobtrusively
behind your PC.
Go the distance with fiber.
Miniature Media Converters
using multimode fiber support
distances of up to 984.2 feet
(300 m) or 1.2 miles (2 km)—
enough distance for most LAN
applications. For more extensive
campus applications, choose
Single-Mode or Single-Mode,
Single-Strand models for long-
distance runs of up to 6.2, 12.4,
24.8, or 43.5 miles (10, 20, 40,
or 70 km).
Three power options.
Miniature Media Converters
can be powered one of three
ways: by an external AC power
supply included with each unit,
by an optional USB Power
Adapter Cable that plugs into a
PC’s USB port, or by an optional
rackmount PowerTray.
