The StarTech 1000Base-SX Fiber Media Converter allows you to connect your fiber optic network to copper Ethernet. With a maximum distance of 550 meters (1804 feet), it supports multimode fiber connections and is an unmanaged solution, making it easy to deploy and integrate into your existing network.
The StarTech Multimode Fiber Ethernet Media Converter, part number MCMGBSCMM055, facilitates the extension and bridging of copper Ethernet networks over multimode fiber. This unmanaged solution is designed for IT professionals and businesses needing to integrate fiber optic segments into existing copper infrastructure without complex setup. It supports 100/1000 Mbps (Gigabit) speeds and is 1000BASE-SX compliant, operating at an 850 NM wavelength. The converter allows for network extensions up to 550 meters (1804 feet) over multimode fiber, addressing scenarios where distance limitations of copper cabling are a factor. With an SC connector for fiber and an RJ45 connector for copper, it provides a direct conversion point, simplifying network topology management and enabling reliable data transmission across extended distances within a campus or building environment.
