StarTech US1GA30SFP USB 3.0 to SFP Fiber Adapter
Overview
The StarTech US1GA30SFP provides a direct USB 3.0 to Gigabit fiber optic network connection, enabling you to leverage the extended range and noise immunity of fiber optics for your network infrastructure. This adapter is powered directly from the USB port, eliminating the need for an external power supply. It's designed for scenarios where a standard Ethernet connection is insufficient, such as bridging long distances or connecting across electrically noisy environments. The US1GA30SFP supports 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps) Ethernet and is compatible with IEEE802.3z 1000BASE-Sx/Lx SFP modules, allowing for flexible fiber optic connectivity. Its compact form factor and USB power make it ideal for temporary deployments or extending network reach from a workstation or server.
Compatibility
This adapter is compatible with Windows 7 through 11, Windows Server 2008 through 2025, macOS 10.9 through 15.0 and 26.1, and Linux kernel versions 3.5 through 4.11.x. It requires an available USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps) port for optimal performance. The adapter supports standard IEEE802.3z 1000BASE-Sx/Lx SFP modules (sold separately), allowing you to choose the appropriate fiber type (multimode or single-mode) and distance for your specific application.
Installation Notes
Operating temperature range is 0°C to 60°C (32°F to 140°F), with storage temperatures from -10°C to 70°C (14°F to 158°F). Relative humidity should be kept between 5% and 90% RH. The device is powered via USB, simplifying installation by removing the need for a separate power adapter.
