Transition SISTG1013-211-LRT Media Converter SC 1000BT1000BSX 550 m

Product Description

The Transition Networks SISTG1013-211-LRT is a Gigabit Ethernet media converter designed to bridge the gap between copper-based 1000Base-T Ethernet networks and multimode fiber optic networks using the 1000Base-SX standard. This device is crucial for extending high-speed network connectivity within buildings, across campuses, or between nearby facilities where multimode fiber is the preferred cabling medium. The converter features an RJ-45 port for the 1000Base-T connection and an SC port for the 1000Base-SX multimode fiber connection. The 1000Base-SX standard is optimized for multimode fiber, and this particular model incorporates Long Reach Technology (LRT) to achieve transmission distances of up to 550 meters. This extended range over standard multimode fiber makes it suitable for a wider array of applications than typical short-reach multimode converters. This media converter offers a practical and economical solution for network upgrades and expansions. It allows organizations to leverage existing multimode fiber infrastructure while enabling the use of high-speed Gigabit Ethernet devices. It is commonly deployed to connect network switches, servers, workstations, or other Ethernet devices that are located beyond the reach of standard copper Ethernet cables but within the range of multimode fiber.
