Description

Signamax 065-1197 1000BaseT to LX Media Converter

Overview

The Signamax 065-1197 is a critical component for extending network infrastructure beyond the limitations of standard copper Ethernet. This media converter bridges the gap between 1000BaseT (Gigabit Ethernet over twisted pair) and 1000BaseLX (Gigabit Ethernet over single-mode fiber optic cable). It's designed for deployments where network segments need to span significant distances, such as connecting remote surveillance cameras or building networks across campuses. The 10 km transmission range makes it suitable for many industrial and commercial applications requiring reliable, high-speed data transfer over fiber.

Compatibility

This converter is designed to interface with standard 1000BaseT Ethernet ports found on switches, routers, and network devices. On the fiber side, it utilizes an SC connector, compatible with standard single-mode fiber optic patch cords. It functions as a transparent bridge, meaning it does not alter network traffic and is compatible with any network protocol or device that supports Gigabit Ethernet. This includes most modern IP cameras, network video recorders (NVRs), and managed switches from various manufacturers.

Installation Notes

Installation requires connecting a standard RJ-45 Ethernet cable from your network device to the 1000BaseT port on the converter. A single-mode SC fiber optic patch cord connects the converter to the fiber optic network. Ensure the fiber optic cable is rated for the 10 km distance and is properly terminated. The converter requires no configuration; it operates plug-and-play. Power is supplied via an external power adapter (sold separately), which is essential for its operation.
