StarTech, ET91000SM10, 10 Gigabit Ethernet 10 km Copper-to-Fiber Media Converter
ET91000SM10 Includes Only:
- 1 - Gigabit Ethernet fiber media converter
- 1 - universal power adapter (NA/JP, EU, UK, ANZ)
- 1 - Grounding Screw
- 1 - instruction manual
Features:
- Ethernet over fiber extension: Use this full/half duplex fiber media converter to convert and extend a Gigabit Ethernet connection up to 10km (6.2mi) using single-mode LC fiber cable
- Includes SFP: For added convenience, this IT-grade network fiber media converter includes an SFP transceiver (mini gbic), enabling a 1310nm LC single-mode Gigabit fiber connection
- Maximum durability: Built to withstand harsh environments, this rugged media converter has a durable steel housing and has an operating temperature range of 0°C-50°C (32°F-122°F)
- SPECS: Supports Link Fault Passthrough (LFP), Auto Laser Shutdown (ALS), VLAN tagging, and Auto MDIX; Up to 9.6K Jumbo Frame support; Compatible with Gigabit (1000Mbps) copper (IEEE 802.3ab, 1000BASE-T) and fiber (IEEE 802.3z, 1000BASE-LX) protocols
Applications:
- Use fiber optic cable to connect to your network from remote areas or separate buildings, at greater distances than copper (RJ45) cable allows
- Perfect for secure connections required by government agencies where EMI isn't acceptable
- Easily expand the number of ports on your existing network now, or in the future - perfect for small and medium businesses
This Gigabit Ethernet to fiber media converter is a cost-effective way to extend your network or extend the distance between two devices by up to 10 km (6.2 mi.).
Fiber network connections provide greater distance and security, with less electromagnetic interference (EMI) than typical RJ45 copper-based networks, making it perfect for IT professionals and secure setups in government, business, or educational applications.
Flexible integration into mixed network environments
This versatile copper-to-fiber converter supports standalone operation. The card module can also be inserted back into the ET91000SM10 enclosure, plus it's compatible with enclosures from other StarTech ET91000 series media converters (sold separately).
The converter features a pre-installed Gigabit SFP transceiver with LC connectors. Should your network infrastructure change in the future, you can easily swap and replace the module to adapt the media converter to your network requirements.
With flexible integration and connectivity up to 10 km away, you can provide network access to remote areas in other buildings.
Rugged and reliable
This heavy-duty fiber media converter is designed for maximum reliability. It features a metal (steel) enclosure, so it can withstand the demands of harsh environments such as factories or warehouses.
Plus, by relying on this more durable fiber media converter, you can reduce the strain on your existing copper-based network equipment and potentially extend the life of those devices, which helps save future expenses.
Diagnose and correct issues easily
This high-performance media converter supports a range of network setup and diagnostic protocols (for example, Link Fault Passthrough, Auto Laser Shutdown (ALS), and Auto MDIX, so you can set up and troubleshoot your network easily.
Prepare your network for the future
If your existing network consists of RJ45 copper-based devices and cables, you might not be ready for future network expansion. Because the fiber-based network switches feature SFP ports more often than RJ45 ports, you might need a converter to bridge your copper and fiber networks together.
