Description

High-Performance Gigabit Fibre Connectivity

Keep your network running at full speed with this Gigabit media converter, designed to seamlessly bridge 1000Base-T copper to 1000Base-SX fibre. Supporting 1000Mbps (1Gbps) data rates over 850nm multimode fibre, it delivers stable, high-speed transmission up to 550 metres—ideal for extending network reach across larger sites.

Auto-negotiation on the RJ-45 port ensures smooth integration with existing 10/100/1000Base-T networks, so there’s no need to upgrade your entire infrastructure. Whether you’re connecting comms rooms, linking buildings, or upgrading legacy systems, this converter keeps your network fast, efficient, and future-ready.

Reliable, Standards-Compliant Operation

Built for dependable performance in demanding environments, this converter maintains full compliance with 1000Base-SX fibre standards, ensuring consistent signal integrity across your installation. The store-and-forward switching architecture improves data accuracy, while auto MDI/MDI-X detection eliminates wiring guesswork on site.

With support for both full and half duplex modes, plus built-in flow control, it adapts to a wide range of network setups—reducing packet loss and maintaining stable communication. This reliability helps minimise troubleshooting time and prevents costly downtime on commercial and industrial jobs.

Trade-Friendly Installation & Project Efficiency
