Transition CMEFG1017-100 Slide-In-1000BT SC 1000BLX Media Converter

Product Description

The Transition CMEFG1017-100 is a high-performance Gigabit Ethernet media converter module designed for integration into compatible chassis or enclosures. This module facilitates the conversion between 1000BASE-X, which typically refers to a Gigabit Ethernet connection via an SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) transceiver, and 1000BASE-LX, a standard for Gigabit Ethernet transmission over single-mode fiber optic cable. The use of an SC connector for the fiber optic interface ensures a secure and reliable connection. This media converter is ideal for extending Gigabit Ethernet networks over long distances. Single-mode fiber optic cable, used with 1000BASE-LX, can transmit data over many kilometers (typically up to 10 km or more, depending on the SFP module and fiber quality), far exceeding the limitations of copper Ethernet. This makes the CMEFG1017-100 a crucial component for backbone networks, campus area networks, and inter-building connectivity where high bandwidth and extended reach are required. The slide-in form factor allows for easy installation and replacement within a supporting media converter chassis, simplifying network management and upgrades. It provides a reliable and efficient way to integrate fiber optic connectivity into existing Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure, ensuring high-speed data transmission with excellent signal integrity and immunity to electromagnetic interference.
