Transition Networks SGETF1029-110-NA 1000BASE-T Media Converter

Transition Networks SGETF1029-110-NA 1000BASE-T Media Converter

Overview

The Transition Networks SGETF1029-110-NA is a TAA-compliant media converter designed to extend Ethernet network reach by converting 1000BASE-T copper signals to 1000BASE-LX single-mode fiber. This unit is essential for bridging distances beyond the typical 100-meter copper Ethernet limit, making it suitable for campus backbones, industrial facilities, or connecting remote surveillance cameras over long runs. Its inclusion of a power supply and DIN rail mounting option simplifies integration into existing infrastructure.

Compatibility

This media converter is designed to interface with standard 1000BASE-T Ethernet ports found on network switches, routers, and end devices. It is compatible with single-mode fiber optic cable terminated with LC connectors, supporting distances up to 10 kilometers (6.2 miles). It functions as a transparent bridge, meaning it is compatible with any network protocol or data that runs over standard Gigabit Ethernet, including IP camera streams, VMS data, and network management traffic.

Installation Notes

The SGETF1029-110-NA supports DIN rail mounting, common in industrial control panels and network closets. It requires a standard power outlet for the included power adapter. Ensure the single-mode fiber cable is properly terminated with LC connectors and that the transmit (Tx) port on one converter is connected to the receive (Rx) port on the other, and vice-versa, for bidirectional communication.
