Signamax 065-1174 10/100BaseT/TX to 100BaseFX Multimode Fiber Media Converter
Overview
The Signamax 065-1174 is a critical component for extending network infrastructure beyond the typical 100-meter Ethernet cable limit. This media converter bridges the gap between copper 10/100BaseT/TX Ethernet and 100BaseFX multimode fiber optic cabling, enabling network segments to reach up to 2 kilometers. It is essential for connecting devices in large facilities, across campuses, or between buildings where direct copper runs are impractical or impossible. The 065-1174 model specifically utilizes an LC connector for its fiber optic interface.
Compatibility
This media converter is designed to interface with standard 10/100BaseT/TX Ethernet ports found on network switches, routers, and end devices. On the fiber side, it is compatible with 100BaseFX multimode fiber optic networks utilizing LC connectors. It functions as a transparent bridge, meaning it does not require specific software or driver installation on the connected network equipment. It is suitable for integration into various surveillance and general networking environments that require copper-to-fiber conversion over short to medium distances.
Installation Notes
Installation involves connecting a standard RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the copper port and a compatible LC multimode fiber optic cable to the fiber port. Ensure the fiber cable is rated for the 2 km distance and the correct wavelength for 100BaseFX operation. Power is typically supplied via an external power adapter (sold separately), which is required for operation. Verify that the connected network devices are configured for 10/100 Mbps auto-negotiation or fixed at 100 Mbps to ensure optimal performance.
