The StarTech ET1000S40LC2 is a Gigabit Ethernet to single-mode fiber media converter designed to extend network connections over long distances. This device facilitates the conversion of a 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet signal to a 1000Base-LX/SX fiber signal, enabling network extension up to 40 km (24.8 miles) over single-mode LC fiber. It is suitable for IT professionals and businesses requiring reliable, high-speed network connectivity between geographically separated network segments or buildings. The converter addresses challenges such as overcoming Ethernet's distance limitations and integrating fiber optic backbones into existing copper-based networks. Featuring an all-steel chassis, it supports standalone operation or can be integrated into a 20-slot, 2U rackmount chassis (ETCHS2U) for scalable deployments. Installation is plug-and-play, requiring minimal configuration.
The ET1000S40LC2 1000 Mbps Gigabit Single-Mode Fiber Media Converter (LC, 40 km) enables you to extend a Gigabit Ethernet network over single-mode fiber, at distances up to 40km (25 miles).
