Transition Networks N-GXE-LC-01 Gigabit Single Mode Media Converter
Overview
The Transition Networks N-GXE-LC-01 is a Gigabit media converter designed to extend network infrastructure over single-mode fiber optic cable. This unit is essential for bridging copper Ethernet segments to fiber optic networks, enabling data transmission over longer distances than standard Ethernet allows. Its compact form factor and DIN rail mounting capability make it suitable for integration into industrial control cabinets, network closets, and surveillance system backbones where space is at a premium and reliable connectivity is critical. The N-GXE-LC-01 model specifically supports Gigabit speeds over single-mode fiber, providing a robust solution for high-bandwidth, long-haul applications.
Compatibility
This media converter is designed to interface with standard Gigabit Ethernet copper ports (RJ45) and single-mode fiber optic ports (LC connector). It is compatible with any network device featuring a standard RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet port, including managed and unmanaged switches, routers, servers, and IP cameras. For fiber optic connectivity, it requires a complementary single-mode fiber transceiver or port on the other end of the fiber link, supporting standard LC connectors. It functions transparently, making it compatible with all network protocols and operating systems.
Installation Notes
The N-GXE-LC-01 features a DIN rail mounting mechanism, allowing for quick and secure installation in standard industrial enclosures. It operates within an extended temperature range of -15°C to 65°C, suitable for environments that may experience temperature fluctuations. Power is supplied via an external adapter (sold separately), and the unit requires no complex configuration, functioning as a plug-and-play device once connected.
