Fiber Media Converter

As its name implies, a media converter makes the conversion from one network media type (defined by cable and connector types and bandwidth) to another media type. A typical media converter consists of two transceivers, and is sometimes called a Media Attachment Unit. These monitoring data, and from each other. Each MAU including different industry-standard formats, connectors, it is able to add different types of media. The basic concept is that a media type of entry and other profit-making. All connectors are the latest, the latest IEEE standards and protocols.

Fiber media converter can connect different Local area network (LAN) media, modifying duplex and speed settings. Switching media converters can connect legacy 10BASE-T network segments to more recent 100BASE-TX or 100BASE-FX Fast Ethernet infrastructure. For example, existing Half-Duplex hubs can be connected to 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet network segments over 100BASE-FX fiber.

When expanding the reach of the LAN to span multiple locations, media converters are useful in connecting multiple LANs to form one large campus area network that spans over a limited geographic area. As premises networks are primarily copper-based, media converters can extend the reach of the LAN over single-mode fiber up to 130 kilometers with 1550 nm optics.

Fiber Media converters can be used anywhere in the network to integrate newer technology with existing equipment to support new applications, technologies and future growth. Instead of costly, across-the-board upgrades, media converters can extend the productive life of the existing cabling as well as the active equipment.

Use of fiber optic media converter, can support longer transmission distances than traditional copper cables up to 200 times! It is an integrated multi-mode fiber Gigabit Ethernet Converter support alienated to 3000 m. These days there are in a smaller design, manufacturing, modern conversion. These are the latest server and switch type. Small optical connector occupy less than half of the traditional ST and SC connectors of the space. This means more ports, and can solve the equipment investment.
