Fast Ethernet WDM Fiber Media Converter - RJ45 to Single Mode SC
Maximize your fiber infrastructure efficiency with this WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) media converter that uses a single fiber strand for bidirectional communication. Designed for cost-effective, long-distance network extension, this converter transmits and receives data over a single fiber cable, significantly reducing cabling costs while maintaining high-performance 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet speeds up to 20km.
Built to IEEE 802.3u standards with robust lightning protection and intelligent auto-adaptation features, this unmanaged media converter delivers steady performance for mission-critical applications. The WDM technology transmits at 1310nm and receives at 1550nm, requiring a paired converter at the opposite end with complementary wavelengths (TX1550nm/RX1310nm). Perfect for upgrading networks, building broadband campus infrastructure, or deploying FTTB/FTTH solutions.
