Designed for the Gigabit Ethernet arena the FC-GigE fibre converter offers a low cost conversion of 1000Base-SX 50/125u or 62.5/125u multi mode fibre with a maximum range of 550m; to a 1000Base-LX interface with a range of 10km when used with 9/125u Single Mode Fibre

The FC-GigE is rate agnostic and as such will adapt between single and multi-mode fibre interfaces at any speed up to the 1.25Gbps of Gigabit Ethernet.


Front: FC Gig-E 1000Base-SX to 1000Base-LX Fibre Converter

All Metrodata fiber converters are supplied as standard with SC connectors operating at a nominal wavelength of 1300nm. Other wavelengths are available on request, e.g. 850nm, 1550nm, 1550/1300 WDM. Other connectors are also available on request, e.g. ST, FC.

The FC4X00 range can easily be rackmounted in either a 1U two unit rackmount kit or in a 6U eighteen unit rackmount kit .
