Media Converters reduce cabling cost by providing flexible fiber optic solutions for Ethernet LANs and WAN connectivity. Designed in a compact, strong metal case, models are available for direct connection to RJ-45 and fiber optic ports on both Ethernet and Fast Ethernet devices or single-mode fiber carrier demarcation points. All Fast Ethernet fiber optic to twisted pair models incorporate a built-in 2-port switch to allow maximum fiber extension and easy connection to legacy Ethernet devices over a Fast Ethernet fiber backbone. A wide variety of conversion solutions provide network expansion and segmentation at the lowest expense. Converters are 100% compliant with Ethernet IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u specifications and are FCC Part 15 of Class A and CE approved.
The Signamax 065-1195 1000BaseT to 1000BaseSX Gigabit Ethernet media converter provides a simple way to extend distances over multi-mode fiber for 1000BaseT network interface cards, switches, and routers. It is 100% compliant with Ethernet IEEE 802.3ab and 802.3z specifications and is FCC Part 15 of Class A and CE approved. This converter maintains the same form factor as other Signamax media converters, allowing it to be used in the 065-1180 rackmount chassis for mixed or multiple Ethernet / Fast Ethernet / Gigabit Ethernet installations

Fiber Optic Media Converter
Models are available for direct connection to RJ-45 and fiber optic ports on both Ethernet and Fast Ethernet devices, or for use with Single-mode fiber carrier demarcation points. These offer a wide variety of conversion solutions, providing network expansion and segmentation at the lowest cost possible. Each Media Converter is enclosed in a compact, strong metal case and includes an external power supply for stand-alone applications. They can also be installed without modification in the Signamax 065-1180 Rack Mount Chassis featuring redundant power supplies for high reliability and in multiple installations. The multi-functional design eliminates the need to stock separate units for the Rack Mount Chassis and for stand-alone requirements. LED diagnostics for Power, Link, Activity, and Partition (model 065-1160 only) are included. All Media Converters are fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3u Fast Ethernet and IEEE 802.3 Ethernet standards, as well as meeting CE and FCC Part 15 Class A standards for safety and radio frequency emissions.
