Description

StarTech MCM10GSFP2 10Gbps Copper to Fiber Media Converter

Overview

The StarTech MCM10GSFP2 is a compact media converter designed to bridge the gap between 10GBASE-T copper Ethernet and 10Gbps fiber optic networks. It allows you to leverage an existing open SFP+ slot on a switch or server to connect to a 10Gbps fiber optic cable, extending network reach and enabling higher bandwidth connections over longer distances. This converter is ideal for data centers, enterprise networks, or any environment requiring high-speed, reliable network extension where fiber is the preferred medium.

Compatibility

This media converter is designed to work with any standard open SFP+ slot, accepting any 10Gbps SFP+ transceiver (sold separately). It is compatible with network switches, routers, and servers that feature an SFP+ port, enabling seamless integration into existing infrastructure. It supports 16K jumbo frames, which can improve throughput for large data transfers by reducing packet overhead.

Installation Notes

The MCM10GSFP2 operates within a 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F) temperature range, making it suitable for most indoor environments. It requires a 5V DC, 2A power input, supplied via the included AC adapter, consuming a maximum of 5.3W. The unit measures 70 mm x 93.5 mm x 26 mm and weighs 216 g, facilitating easy installation in tight spaces or network closets.
