Introduction:
MC-3000 Series
Gigabit Multi-mode SX to Single Mode LX Converter
The MC-3000 series has been specifically design to address the
needs of Gigabit network configurations' setup in single and
multi-mode fiber cabling environments.
These converters offer high speed transparent conversion between
single mode cable segments and multi-mode fiber segments in
Gigabit networks.
Product Summary & Benefits:
Today's networks utilize a variety of fiber cables to meet the demands of bandwidth and cable distances. The MC-3000 series specifically
addresses these needs by transparently converting multi-mode fiber into single mode fiber cable in one small high performance device.
Now, network designers can accommodate dif ferent fiber cables to suit s pecific networking requireme nts.
The MC-3000 series can accommodate FDDI, Fast Ethernet and Gigabit without any drop in performance. They can handle any protocol
betwee n 1Mbps and 1000Mbps. A single to single mode and multi to multi-mode version is also available for increased cable distances.
Expands the Size of an Existing Network - provides fiber connectivity to Gigabit segments that allows for even further networking
expansion between extended workgroups. They offer building-to-building connectivity without the need to employ expensive and MIS
intensive routers.
Enhances the Distance between Networking Devices - connecting the MC-3000 to fiber segments can further extend distances of up to
140,000 meters between networking nodes. This can be achieved by a direct connection between the converters and a fiber based
networ king device.
Cabling Flexibility - put different fiber cabling anywhere within a network. Their compact size allow the converters to be easily
deployed in any narrow desktop location, or used in wall-mount installation. Several converters can be simultaneously installed by using
the MC-16000C- 12 12-slot 19" rack-mount chassis or MC-16000C-4 4- slot converter chassis.
