1000 Mbps Gigabit Multi Mode Fiber Ethernet Media Converter SC 550m
StarTech ID: MCMGBSC055
The MCMGBSC055 1000 Mbps Gigabit Multi Mode Fiber Ethernet Media Converter SC - 550m converts
transparently to/from 1000Base-T Ethernet signals and 1000Base-SX optical signals, providing a cost-effective
Ethernet-fiber/copper-fiber link, in order to extend an Ethernet network connection over a Multimode fiber backbone.
Supporting a maximum Multimode fiber optic cable distance of 550 meters (0.34 miles), this Fiber Media Converter
delivers a simple solution for connecting Gigabit Ethernet networks to remote locations using SC-terminated MM
fiber, while ensuring solid network performance and scalability.
Backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.
Applications
Creates an economical Ethernet-fiber/copper-fiber link for connecting remote sub-networks to larger fiber
optic networks/backbones
Converts Ethernet to fiber, fiber to copper/Ethernet, ensuring optimum network scalability for connecting two
or more Ethernet network nodes (e.g. connecting two buildings on the same campus)
Designed to provide high-speed bandwidth for demanding large scale work groups that require expansion of
Gigabit Ethernet Network
Extending an Ethernet connection by up to 550m (0.34 miles) using a fiber backbone
