Description

Signamax 065-1196ALXED 1000Base-SXED 20km Fiber Media Converter

Overview

The Signamax 065-1196ALXED is a managed media converter designed to bridge copper Ethernet networks to single-mode fiber optic networks. It is critical for extending the reach of surveillance systems or other data networks beyond the 100-meter limit of standard Ethernet cabling. This unit specifically converts 10/100/1000Base-T/TX copper signals to 1000Base-SXED single-mode fiber signals, supporting distances up to 20 kilometers. Its primary application is in environments where existing copper infrastructure needs to connect to longer-haul fiber runs, such as connecting remote camera locations or bridging buildings across a campus. The 110V power input makes it suitable for standard commercial power outlets.

Compatibility

This media converter is designed to interface with standard IEEE 802.3ab (1000Base-T) and IEEE 802.3z (1000Base-SXED) compliant network devices. It is compatible with any network switch or endpoint that provides a 10/100/1000Base-T RJ45 port and requires a 1000Base-SXED fiber connection. This includes most enterprise-grade network switches and IP cameras that offer SFP or direct fiber ports, provided they adhere to the specified standards. It functions as a transparent bridge, meaning it does not require specific VMS or network management software for basic operation, but its managed features allow for integration into larger network monitoring systems.

Installation Notes

Requires a standard 110V AC power source. The RJ45 port supports Auto MDI/MDI-X, simplifying cable connections. Ensure the correct single-mode fiber type (SC/PC connector) and wavelength (SXED) are used for the 20km transmission. Verify that the connected fiber optic cable run does not exceed the specified 20km distance to maintain signal integrity.
