Gigabit Ethernet WDM Bi-Directional Single Mode
Media Converter
10/100/1000Base-TX to 1000Base-LX (SC) Single-Mode, 20 km (12.4 mi.), WDM
(RX1550/TX1310)
Part No.: 545068
The Intellinet Network Solutions Gigabit Ethernet WDM (bi-directional wavelength division
multiplexing) Media Converter utilizes a single strand of fiber to transmit network traffic on
separate receive and transmit wavelengths (1550/1310 nm). This innovative technology
allows you to effectively use the two strands for two independent connections or to double
the capacity without digging in a second fiber cable. The converter is completely
transparent to the network so the network performs exactly the way it did before — only now
it can support both copper and fiber mediums.
Expands the Size of an Existing Network
This converter provides fiber connectivity to Ethernet segments, allowing for even further
networking expansion between extended workgroups. It also provides building-to-building
connectivity without the cost and disruption associated with the installation of additional
routers.
Enhances the Distance between Networking Devices
Connecting the converter to fiber segments can further extend distances between
networking nodes. This can be achieved by direct connection between the converter and a
fiber-based node or networking device.

Network managers can install fiber cabling anywhere within a network without changing the
arrangement of copper-based Ethernet. The compact size of the converter allows it to be
easily deployed in any narrow desktop location or to be used in a wallmount installation.
Several converters can be simultaneously installed into a 19" rack-mountable
chassis.
