Overview



Connect a Gigabit copper network to a Gigabit fiber network using an SFP+ transceiver of your choice.

Flexible, High-Speed Copper-to-Fiber Conversion

This compact 10G media converter enables seamless copper-to-fiber connectivity for high-speed network upgrades and extended reach. Featuring an open SFP+ slot, it converts 2.5G/5G/10GBASE-T (RJ-45) to 10G fiber and supports multi-mode or single-mode transceivers (e.g., 10GBASE-SR/LR) for flexible deployment across enterprise and telecom environments.

Versatile Mounting and Deployment

Ideal for structured wiring closets, server rooms, or remote network upgrades, the converter supports wall-mount, DIN rail, and chassis installations. It can operate as a standalone device or integrate into a media converter chassis system.

Optimized for Mixed-Speed Networks

Built for maximum compatibility, the converter supports IEEE 802.3 standards, 16K Jumbo Frames, auto MDI/MDI-X, and full-duplex flow control. With plug-and-play setup and reliable diagnostics, it ensures consistent performance across legacy and high-speed links.

Efficient, Compact Design

With low 5.3W (typical) power consumption via 5V DC input, this power-efficient converter operates in environments ranging from 0°C to 50°C. It avoids PoE-related conflicts and is ideal for compact, power-sensitive deployments.
