Overview
The Transition Networks E-100BTX-FX-05(SMHT)-NA is a 100Mbps media converter designed to extend network distances by converting copper Ethernet signals to single-mode fiber. This unit is essential for bridging the gap between standard Ethernet cabling limitations and the extended reach provided by fiber optics, particularly in surveillance deployments where cameras may be located far from the network closet. Its inclusion of a power supply and support for DIN rail mounting simplifies integration into existing infrastructure.
Compatibility
This media converter is compatible with any standard 100Mbps Ethernet device, including network switches, cameras, and other network-attached equipment that utilize RJ-45 connectors. It is designed for use with single-mode fiber optic cable, supporting distances up to 10km (6.2 miles) depending on the fiber optic transceiver specifications. It functions as a transparent bridge, meaning it does not interfere with network protocols and is compatible with virtually any network device operating at 100Mbps.
Installation Notes
The E-100BTX-FX-05(SMHT)-NA supports DIN rail mounting, facilitating straightforward installation in industrial enclosures or network racks. It requires a standard power outlet for the included power supply. Ensure proper termination of the single-mode fiber optic cable to the SC connector for reliable connectivity. The operating temperature range is suitable for many commercial environments.
