Transition E-TBT-FRL-04(SC)-NA 10BT 10BFL 10BT SC Media Converter

Description

The Transition Networks E-TBT-FRL-04(SC)-NA is a specialized media converter designed to bridge the gap between copper-based Ethernet networks and fiber optic networks. Specifically, it converts 10Base-T electrical signals, typically found on standard Ethernet cables, into 10Base-FL optical signals that can be transmitted over fiber optic cabling. This conversion allows for the extension of network distances far beyond the limitations of copper Ethernet (typically 100 meters) and provides immunity to electromagnetic interference. This model utilizes SC duplex connectors, a common standard for fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure and reliable link. The converter operates at a data rate of 10 Mbps, making it suitable for legacy Ethernet networks or specific applications where higher speeds are not required. It typically functions in half-duplex mode, which is characteristic of older Ethernet standards. The 'FRL' in the model name often indicates the fiber optic type and range, while '(SC)' specifies the connector type. As a standalone unit, the E-TBT-FRL-04(SC)-NA is designed for easy deployment in various network environments. It is often used in industrial settings, building backbones, or campus networks where the robustness and extended reach of fiber optics are necessary. By enabling the interconnection of disparate network media, this converter plays a vital role in network infrastructure, ensuring connectivity and data integrity over longer distances.
