Transition Networks SGETF1014-110-NA Media Converter
Overview
The Transition Networks SGETF1014-110-NA is a 1000BASE-T to 1000BASE-LX/EX single mode fiber media converter. It bridges the gap between copper Ethernet and single mode fiber, extending network reach significantly beyond the 100-meter limit of standard twisted-pair cabling. This is critical for connecting surveillance cameras, access control panels, or other network devices located in remote areas of a facility or campus to a central network switch. Its TAA compliance ensures it meets specific government procurement requirements.
Compatibility
This media converter is designed to interface with standard 1000BASE-T Ethernet ports found on most managed and unmanaged network switches, IP cameras, and other network-attached devices. It operates with 1000BASE-LX/EX single mode fiber transceivers, supporting distances up to 10km (6.2 miles) for LX or 40km (24.8 miles) for EX, depending on the fiber module used (sold separately). It is compatible with standard network infrastructure and does not require specific VMS or NVR integration beyond standard IP connectivity.
Installation Notes
The unit supports DIN rail mounting, facilitating integration into industrial control panels or network closets. It includes an external power supply, simplifying deployment where direct PoE is not available or desired. Ensure the connected fiber optic cable is single mode and compatible with the chosen SFP module (sold separately) for optimal performance and distance. Approvals include FCC Class A and CISPR22/EN55022 Class A, indicating suitability for commercial environments.
