The MCMGBSC055 is 1000Mbps gigabit multi-mode fiber Ethernet media converter, SC - 550m converts transparently to/from 1000Base-T Ethernet signals and 1000Base-SX optical signals, providing a cost-effective Ethernet-fiber/copper-fiber link, in order to extend an Ethernet network connection over a multi-mode fiber backbone.
850nm wavelength
LED indicators for simple Ethernet/fiber network link monitoring
Compact design
Supports forced full duplex or auto-negotiation modes on the fiber link
Simple installation
Supports a maximum multimode fiber optic cable distance of 550m
Supports 802.3ab 1000Base-TX and 1000Base-FX industry standards
Supports IEEE 802.1q Tag VLAN pass through
Supports transparent Q-in-Q double tagged frames

Applications
Creates an economical Ethernet-fiber/copper-fiber link for connecting remote sub-networks to larger fiber optic networks/backbones
Converts Ethernet to fiber, fiber to copper/Ethernet, ensuring optimum network scalability for connecting two or more Ethernet network nodes (e.g. connecting two buildings on the same campus)
Designed to provide high-speed bandwidth for demanding large scale work groups that require expansion of Gigabit Ethernet network
Extending an Ethernet connection by up to 550m (0.34 miles) using a fiber backbone
