Transition E-100BTX-FX-05(XL)NA Media Converter SC 100BTX100BFX 60km

Product Description

The Transition Networks E-100BTX-FX-05(XL)NA is a robust Fast Ethernet media converter designed to bridge the gap between copper Ethernet cabling and fiber optic cabling. It allows for the extension of standard Ethernet networks over significantly longer distances than copper alone can support, making it ideal for industrial environments, campus networks, or metropolitan area networks (MANs). This converter translates 100Base-TX signals from a standard RJ45 copper Ethernet port into 100Base-FX fiber optic signals. The fiber optic side utilizes an SC connector, a common and secure connection type for fiber. The 'XL' designation and the 60km range indicate that this specific model is designed for long-haul fiber optic transmission, enabling network connectivity across vast distances where traditional copper Ethernet would be impractical or impossible. The E-100BTX-FX-05(XL)NA facilitates seamless integration of different network media types, enhancing network flexibility and reach. It operates at a full 100 Mbps speed, ensuring that network performance is maintained across the conversion. This device is typically deployed in pairs, with one converter at each end of the fiber optic link, to connect two separate Ethernet segments or extend a network to a remote location.
