Transition SBFFG1013-105-NA SBFFG1013-105 RJ45 SC 1000BT1000BSX 550 m

Product Description

The Transition SBFFG1013-105-NA is a network interface module that bridges the gap between copper Ethernet and single-mode fiber optic cabling. It features an RJ45 connector for standard Ethernet connections and is designed to transmit data over single-mode fiber optic cable at Gigabit Ethernet speeds (1000 Mbps). The '1000BT1000BSX' designation indicates its support for 1000BASE-SX, which typically uses short-wavelength lasers and is often associated with multi-mode fiber, however, the 'SBFFG' prefix and '550 m' distance suggest this is a specialized single-mode variant or a misinterpretation of the standard naming convention, as 1000BASE-SX is usually limited to shorter distances on multi-mode fiber. The '550 m' distance is more typical for certain single-mode fiber applications or specific transceiver types. This module is crucial for extending network reach beyond the limitations of copper cabling. By converting electrical signals from the RJ45 port into optical signals for transmission over fiber, it enables data to travel significantly longer distances with greater immunity to electromagnetic interference. The 550-meter range makes it suitable for campus networks, large office buildings, or industrial environments where extended connectivity is required. The 'NA' suffix likely indicates a North American region or specific product variant. This module is typically used in conjunction with media converters or network switches that have compatible module slots, allowing network administrators to flexibly design and expand their network infrastructure to meet diverse connectivity needs.
