Product Description

The StarTech HUBS-ET1000SM40LC is a robust media converter designed to facilitate seamless connectivity between different network media types. Specifically, it converts a 1000Base-TX Gigabit Ethernet signal from an RJ-45 copper port to a 1000Base-SX Gigabit Ethernet signal over single-mode fiber optic cable. This conversion is crucial for extending network reach over long distances, overcoming the typical 100-meter limitation of copper Ethernet cabling. The converter supports single-mode fiber optic connections, which are characterized by their ability to transmit data over much greater distances compared to multi-mode fiber. With a maximum transmission distance of up to 40 kilometers (approximately 24.8 miles), this device is ideal for connecting networks across campuses, between buildings, or in metropolitan area networks (MANs). The LC fiber connector ensures a secure and reliable connection. Engineered for high performance, the HUBS-ET1000SM40LC operates at a full Gigabit speed (1 Gbps) and supports full-duplex flow control, optimizing data throughput and minimizing packet loss. It also accommodates jumbo frames up to 9K, which can improve efficiency for large data transfers. The plug-and-play design simplifies installation, requiring no complex configuration, and integrated LED indicators provide at-a-glance status monitoring of network activity and connection status.
