1G медиаконвертер WDM SC > 1000Base-TX (Unmanaged) MCGE
Gigabit Single Fiber (WDM) Media Converters of the MCGE-T/R series are intelligent, adaptive, and high-speed Ethernet devices designed for data transmission between twisted-pair copper 10/100/1000Base-T and optical fiber 1000Base-SX/LX over a single fiber. The use of WDM technology significantly reduces cabling infrastructure costs and extends transmission distance up to 120 km.
The MCGE-T/R series is a cost-effective solution for building backbone, distribution, and remote communication links without upgrading the existing copper network.
Key Advantages of the MCGE-T/R Series
- Single Fiber transmission (WDM) – reduces optical infrastructure costs.
- Up to 120 km distance – supports single-mode fiber for long-distance links.
- Auto speed negotiation – 10/100/1000 Mbps without manual configuration.
- IEEE standards support – 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab, 802.3z.
- Full / Half Duplex with IEEE 802.3x flow control.
- Auto MDI/MDI-X detection – no crossover cables required.
- Built-in buffer memory up to 2 MB – stable performance under peak loads.
- High memory bandwidth – up to 1.4 Gbps.
- Jumbo Frames support – up to 1600 bytes.
- Optional LFP function (Link Fault Pass-Through) via DIP switch.
- Hot-pluggable and wall-mountable.
- Compatible with 2U 19” rack chassis (up to 14 standalone units or 16 card modules).
- LED indicators – power, link, activity, speed, duplex mode.
- MTBF over 50,000 hours – industrial-grade reliability.
Typical Applications
- Carrier and metropolitan fiber optic networks
- Interconnection of remote buildings and sites
- Enterprise and campus networks
- Video surveillance and IP camera systems
- Industrial, energy, and transport infrastructure
- Gigabit Ethernet extension without replacing active equipment
