Transition CBFFG1029-101 GE 1000BT SC 1000BBX-D Single Media Converter

Product Description

The CBFFG1029-101 from Transition Networks is a high-performance Gigabit Ethernet media converter designed to bridge 1000Base-T copper networks with 1000Base-BX single-mode fiber optic networks. This device is crucial for extending Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over significantly longer distances than copper can support, while also providing immunity to electromagnetic interference. The converter features a standard 1000Base-T RJ45 port for connecting to copper Ethernet infrastructure, supporting data rates of 1 Gbps. On the fiber optic side, it utilizes an SC connector and is compatible with 1000Base-BX technology. 1000Base-BX is a standard for Gigabit Ethernet transmission over single-mode fiber using different wavelengths for transmitting and receiving signals on a single strand of fiber (or sometimes two strands with specific wavelength assignments). This 'BX' technology is often referred to as BiDi (Bidirectional) and allows for efficient use of fiber infrastructure. The 'Single Media Converter' designation implies it is a standalone unit. This device is ideal for enterprise networks, data centers, and service provider backbones where high bandwidth and extended reach are essential. It allows for seamless integration of fiber optic links into existing Gigabit Ethernet networks, facilitating robust and scalable network expansion.
