u Utilizes Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) modules

u Multi-mode and single-mode modules available

u Supports distances up to 20 km (12.4 miles)

The Bosch fiber optic Media Converter series are
designed to transmit 10/100 Mbps Ethernet signals
over fiber optic cable using Small Form-factor
Pluggable (SFP) modules. These fiber optic media
converter devices can be used to transmit Ethernet
data well beyond the 100 m limit of copper-based
media and provides a secure, EMI/RFI free
transmission path.
The media converter units are designed to accept
10/100 Mbps SFP modules. The SFP modules are
ordered separately to meet user requirements for
mode type, distance and type of optical connector.
Available offerings include multi-mode fiber (MMF) or
single-mode fiber (SMF) models with a single SC
connector or dual-fiber with an LC connector.

System overview

VG4-SFPSCKT

The VG4-SFPSCKT is a unique media converter module
for use with VG4 series AUTODOME cameras
incorporating the Ethernet (TCP/IP) Communications
Module, as well as with MIC Series 550, 550IR, and
612 cameras. This media converter module is designed
to accept any of the 10/100 Mbps SFP modules
described below.

u Surface mount or rack mount capability

The media converter module along with the SFP
module is user installed directly into the power supply
box of the AUTODOME camera or of the MIC camera
to provide an integrated fiber optic solution. Refer to
the Installation Guide that accompanies the VG4­SFPSCKT for detailed installation instructions.

Media converter device (CNFE2MC/IN)

The media converter device (CNFE2MC/IN) is designed
to transmit and receive 10/100 Mbps Ethernet data
over optical fiber using SFP modules. This head-end
device is supplied in an enclosure that can be surface
mounted or rack mounted using the optional C1-IN
rack mount card cage. The unit does not require in­field adjustments, and provides automatic MDI/MDI-X
crossover.

SFP Modules

The selection of Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP)
modules provides the fast Ethernet optical interface
when using the VG4-SFPSCKT or the CNFE2MC/IN
media converters. These interchangeable SFP modules
are available for use with MMF or SMF optical fiber.
The optical fiber SFP modules are available as one and
two fiber versions. They also are available with LC or
SC optical connectors.

2 | Fiber Optic Media Converters

The VG4-SFPSCKT and CNFE2MC/IN media converters
accept the following SFP modules:

Module Fiber Type Optical Interface

SFP-2 MMF Duplex LC

SFP-3 SMF Duplex LC

SFP-25 MMF Single SC

SFP-26 MMF Single SC

The SFP-25/SFP-26 modules are counterparts; if you
use one in the VG4-SFPSCKT module, then you must
use the other in the CNFE2MC/IN head-end unit. Refer
to the chart below for the acceptable combinations.

If this SFP module is used with

the VG4-SFPSCKT

SFP-2 SFP-2

SFP-3 SFP-3

SFP-25 SFP-26

SFP-26 SFP-25

Then this SFP module must be used in

the CNFE2MC/IN

Rack Mount Card Cage (C1-IN)

The rack mount card cage (C1-IN) is designed to hold
a maximum of 14 CNFE2MC/IN modules. The C1-IN
card cage utilizes an integral, yet field replaceable
universal power supply suitable for 120 VAC to
240 VAC, 50/60 Hz operation.
The C1-IN unit includes automatic self-resetting
current overload protection, so a fault in any one
module will not cause the entire card cage to shut
down.

Closure Panel (C1-BP)

The C1-BP is a closure panel for the C1-IN rack mount
card cage, providing coverage for one rack slot.

Installation/configuration notes

The Bosch Fiber Optic Media Converter solution
consists of three core components and several
optional components to help fit every application.
To provide fiber optic communications between a
Bosch VG4 AutoDome and a controller, you must use
the following:

• One (1) VG4-SFPSCKT Fiber Optic Ethernet Media
Converter Kit – a printed circuit board installed inside
a VG4 power supply box. (See Technical Specification
Section 1)

• One (1) CNFE2MC/IN Ethernet Fiber Optic Media
Converter – a rack-mounted or surface mounted head­end controller. (See Technical Specification Section

2)

• Two (2) Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) modules –
one module is installed in the VG4-SFPSCKT, the
other is installed in the CNFE2MC/IN. (See Technical
Specification Section 3)

Optionally, you can use the following modules to
customize your installation:

• C1-IN Rack Mount Card Cage (See Technical
Specification Section 4)

• C1-BP Closure Panel

To provide fiber optic communications between a MIC
Series 550, 550IR, or 612 camera and a controller, you
must use the following:

• One (1) VG4-SFPSCKT Fiber Optic Ethernet Media
Converter Kit – a printed circuit board installed inside
a MIC IP power supply box. (See Technical
Specification Section 1)

• One (1) Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) module –
one module is installed in the VG4-SFPSCKT. (See
Technical Specification Section 3)
