Net Optics GigaBit LX to SX Converter
Net Optics GigaBit LX to SX Converters are simple and reliable devices for connecting multimode fiber traffic to single mode fiber devices and links. Use these bi-directional media converters individually to connect LX and SX fiber devices, or in pairs at each end of long-distance singlemode fiber links. These Converters are the perfect solution for dispersed networks where media conversion required between multimode segments separated by long distances.
Fast and Versatile
The GigaBit LX to SX Converters support seamless media conversion at 1000 Mbps over link distances up to 550 meters with 50/125 multimode fiber (220 meters with 62.5/125) and up to 5 kilometers with singlemode fiber. The Converter supports either full or half-duplex transmission with auto-negotiation over the fiber link.
Fault Tolerant and Reliable
Net Optics GigaBit LX to SX Converters incorporate Link Fault Detect, which gives the devices connected to the Converter critical information about link status. If either side of the bi-directional link fails, the Converter immediately communicates the fault to both devices, reducing the time required to activate a redundant path. To control jitter over long optical links, the Converter features Clock and Data Recovery (CDR). CDR ensures that the overall jitter
budget is not exceeded when deploying converter pairs with long fiber links.
For extra uptime protection, Net Optics Converters offer redundant power connections. Should the primary power source fail, the Converter automatically switches to the backup power source.
