FC5000: Ethernet Media Conveter

Designed for the Gigabit Ethernet arena, the FC5000 gigabit ethernet media converter offers a low cost conversion from twisted pair 10/100/1000BaseT to 1000Base-X fibre offering either multi-mode or single-mode options. * Ethernet Media conversion between 10/100/1000BaseT and 1000Base-X * SFP (LC) Module for 1000Base-SX or 1000Base-LX * Link State Forwarding * Zero Touch, Plug and Play Interface * LED status indicators * Compact unit with integral power supply * Easy to install & maintain * Rack mounting kits for 2 or 18 units available The FC5000 is a switching media converter operating in store and forward mode. The FC5000 supports auto-negotiation, and auto MDI/MDIX cross-over switching on the copper interface. To ensure reliable operation, the FC5000 supports Link State Forwarding, whereby a fault on the fibre will automatically force a link down on the copper port to indicate to the attached device that there is a link problem. The FC5000 is provided with an SFP module with LC connector supporting either 1000Base-SX for 550 metres operation over multi-mode fibre, or 1000Base-LX for up to 10km over a single-mode fibre.
