Description

Signamax 065-1196A 10/100/1000BaseT/TX to 1000Base-SX SC/MM Media Converter

Overview

The Signamax 065-1196A is a critical component for extending Ethernet network reach beyond the 100-meter copper limitation. This media converter bridges the gap between twisted-pair copper cabling (10/100/1000BaseT/TX) and multi-mode fiber optic cabling (1000Base-SX), enabling network segments to span up to 550 meters. It's designed for deployments where network infrastructure needs to connect buildings, floors, or distant equipment racks, ensuring reliable data transmission over longer distances than copper alone can support. This specific model utilizes an SC connector for its multi-mode fiber interface.

Compatibility

This media converter is designed to interface with standard 10/100/1000BaseT/TX Ethernet ports found on network switches, routers, servers, and IP cameras. The 1000Base-SX multi-mode fiber output is compatible with other 1000Base-SX transceivers and network devices utilizing SC connectors and operating at the 850nm wavelength. It functions as a transparent bridge, meaning it does not alter network traffic protocols and is compatible with virtually any network device supporting Gigabit Ethernet over copper.

Installation Notes

Requires a standard 110V AC power source. The unit features an SC connector for multi-mode fiber, requiring a compatible fiber patch cord. Ensure the fiber optic cable is rated for the specified distance (220m or 550m depending on cable type and quality) and that the SC connectors are clean before insertion to prevent signal degradation. The copper port supports Auto-MDI/MDI-X, simplifying cable selection.
