Intellinet 510530 WDM Bi-Directional Single Mode Media Converter

Intellinet 510530 WDM Bi-Directional Single Mode Media Converter The Intellinet Fast Ethernet WDM (bi-directional wavelength division multiplexing) Media Converter utilizes a single strand of fiber to transmit network traffic on separate receive and transmit wavelengths (1310/1550 nm). This innovative technology allows you to effectively use the two strands for two independent connections or to double the capacity without digging in a second fiber cable. The converter is completely transparent to the network so the network performs exactly the way it did before — only now it can support both copper and fiber mediums. This converter provides fiber connectivity to Ethernet segments, allowing for even further networking expansion between extended workgroups. It also provides building-to-building connectivity without the cost and disruption associated with the installation of additional routers.Connecting the converter to fiber segments can further extend distances between networking nodes. This can be achieved by direct connection between the converter and a fiber-based node or networking device. Fiber SC-type dual-wavelength single-mode port connects over distances of up to 20 km (12.4 miles) Data transfer rate: 100 Mbps Wavelengths: receive (RX), 1310 nm; transmit (TX), 1550 nm 10/100Base-TX RJ45 port, maximum distance 100 m / 300 ft. (Cat5e and better) RJ45 port with Auto MDI/MDI-X support 100Base-FX single-mode fiber SC port
