The Cudy MC100GSB-20A Gigabit Fiber Media Converter converts copper Ethernet signals to single-mode fiber-optic lines, enabling long-distance network extensions up to 20 km over a single strand of fiber. Designed for both commercial enterprise setups and retail network extensions, it utilizes WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) BiDirectional technology to transmit and receive data on a single fiber core, reducing cabling infrastructure costs by half. Featuring an automatic MDI/MDI-X copper RJ45 port and comprehensive diagnostic LEDs, it provides a reliable, plug-and-play solution for interconnecting network switches, IP cameras, or buildings without sacrificing bandwidth.
- Long-Distance Gigabit Connectivity: Converts 10/100/1000Base-T copper network connections to 1000Base-BX single-mode fiber for transmission up to 20 km.
- Single-Fiber WDM BiDi Efficiency: Uses a single fiber strand (TX 1310 nm / RX 1550 nm) for two-way communication, significantly cutting fiber deployment costs.
- High-Performance Architecture: Features a Qualcomm chipset with 2 Mbit buffer memory and 16 KB Jumbo Frame support to eliminate packet loss and reduce latencies.
- Enhanced Network Reliability: Built-in Link Fault Pass Through (LFP) and Far End Fault (FEF) functions instantly report fiber or copper link issues to prevent network outages.
- Durable & Compact Design: Enclosed in a sturdy metal casing designed for desktop placement or installation in standard 19-inch media converter chassis.
- Plug and Play Operation: Auto-negotiation for duplex and speed settings on the RJ45 port ensures zero-configuration deployment.
