By using the N3 Local Gateway Service (a service which provides an interface between a local telephone switch and the N3 Voice Services Central platform) the Royal Brompton Hospital and The Whittington Hospital London needed to connect the LGS router to their PBX over a short distance of internal multimode fibre, unfortunately neither device offered fibre connectivity. This is where Metrodata were able to step in and offer a solution with our popular range of Fibre Converters. The FC1000 fibre converter used by both Hospitals offers electrical (E1 RJ45/BNC) to multimode fibre conversion and provided the correct interface conversion required to connect the LGS router to their PBX.
Metrodata's FC1X00 fibre converter range offers electrical (RJ45/BNC) to fibre using SC connectors (ST connectors optional) allowing the transportation of voice and data over the link, they offer easy installation and can be mounted in a rack or on a desk. With three versions of fibre converters available, Metrodata cover Multimode fibre (FC1000), singlemode shorthaul (FC1100) and singlemode longhaul (FC1200).
Please contact Metrodata if you require more information on our range of Fibre Converters.
