Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the benefits of using a stand-alone media converter versus a chassis-based system?
A: Stand-alone media converters offer maximum deployment flexibility with independent operation, lower initial cost, compact form factor, and the ability to distribute conversion points throughout your network without requiring centralized chassis infrastructure.
Q: How does the SFP slot enhance this media converter's versatility?
A: The SFP slot supports multiple fiber transceiver types, allowing you to choose single-mode, multimode, different wavelengths, and various distances (up to 120km) based on your specific network requirements without purchasing multiple converter models.
Q: Is this compatible with existing 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet equipment?
A: Yes. The 1000Base-T RJ-45 interface provides full compatibility with standard Gigabit Ethernet switches, routers, servers, and network devices, ensuring seamless integration with your existing copper infrastructure.
Q: What fiber types and distances can this converter support?
A: Depending on the SFP transceiver installed, this converter supports multimode fiber (up to 550m), single-mode fiber (up to 120km), and various wavelengths including 850nm, 1310nm, and 1550nm for different application requirements.
Q: Does this media converter require special configuration or management software?
A: No. This stand-alone media converter operates plug-and-play with automatic speed and duplex negotiation, making installation simple and eliminating the need for complex configuration or ongoing management software.
