Media Converter Switches from Black Box are the versatile way to extend your network. They're easy to use - literally plug-and-play - and offer many choices of fiber types, power types, and mounting options.
Media Converter Switches do more than just adapt from one cable type to another. They're true Ethernet switches and behave like switches within your Ethernet network. This means you can connect them together indefinitely without worrying about interrepeater links. Each Media Converter Switch features non-blocking switching architecture with a 2K MAC address table. The 128K buffer memory makes it easy to interconnect 10Mbps and 100Mbps devices.
Standard Media Converter Switches are for use in clean, temperature-controlled environments such as offices and wiring closets. Media Converter Switches are also available in Hardened versions for industrial environments and Extreme versions for outdoor environments. Because all three types work together seamlessly, you can use inexpensive Standard Media Converter Switches in the protection of the wiring closet and choose the more robust Hardened or Extreme Media Converter Switches for harsh locations at your network’s edge.
Features:
RJ-45 ports support autonegotiation, so you can easily attach any 10 or 100Mbps device.
Comes with 115-VAC power supply.
Support both half- and full-duplex operation.
Two sets of LEDs enable you to see status information from the front, top, or side.
Rackmount up to 16 units in the optional Rackmount Tray or Powered Rackmount Tray.
For harsh environments, we offer Hardened Media Converter Switches and Extreme Media Converter Switches.
