Fiber Media Converter Network Diagram

The media converter can then extend your network up to 20 km 12 4mi using single mode lc fiber optic cable.

Fiber media converter network diagram.

If needed the included sfp module lc fiber connector can be removed from the media converter and be replaced with a transceiver module with different specifications. As it is more of a commonplace to deploy a pair of fiber media converters in a network a single media converter is sometimes needed to link copper cabling to a fiber device. These are some of the simplest models and are perfect for companies with junior it staff and simple retrofits as their networks develop. A fiber to fiber media converter can extend a mm network across sm fiber with distances up to 160km.

The connection between the two media converters is a little bit different from the others. Most network diagrams tend to show entire devices instead of individual interfaces and leave layer 1 connections as a simple line. The standard media converter does not require a web interface and essentially convert signals from ethernet to fiber. There is no true standard symbol shape for a media converter since that is generally viewed as an interface level item.

In this application two gigabit ethernet switches equipped with mm fiber ports are connected utilizing a pair of gigabit fiber to fiber converters which convert the mm fiber to sm and enable the long distance connection between the switches. The rj45 port of each media converter is connected to 10 100base tx hub and computer server separately. Packaging contents 1x gigabit ethernet fiber media converter.
