Extend Gigabit Ethernet 40 km

This media converter bridges 1000Base-T copper links to 1000Base-LX single-mode fiber at 1310 nm. It enables network runs up to 40 km without repeaters. The unit operates standalone or mounts in an ETCHS2U rack chassis. An AC adapter with positive center-tip polarity is included.

Ideal for campus or metro links

Suits installers who need to span buildings, campuses or carrier circuits beyond copper reach. Link-loss forwarding and remote monitor status aid fault isolation. Not suited for multimode fiber plants, short-range patching, or PoE-powered endpoints.

Single-mode 40 km reach

The converter accepts single-mode fiber with LC duplex connectors and a maximum cable length of 40 km. Wavelength is fixed at 1310 nm. Power draw is 4 W from a 12 V DC supply. Operating temperature range is 0 °C to 60 °C.

Questions about this item

Does the ET1000S40LC2 include a power adapter or must one be purchased separately?

A universal power adapter is included in the box; it comes ready for the plug type used in the region where the unit is bought.

What does the 40 km figure mean for the ET1000S40LC2?

It is the maximum single-mode fiber distance the converter supports at 1310 nm wavelength.

What throughput does the 1000 Mbps rating deliver in practice?

The converter transparently passes 1000Base-T Ethernet at full gigabit line rate over the fiber link.
