  • 850 nm multi-mode fibre reaches 0.55 km
  • Miniature form factor saves rack and desk space
  • Cost-effective path from legacy 10/100 to gigabit fibre

Mini Media Converter for Legacy Copper-to-Fibre

This Transition Networks mini media converter bridges 10/100/1000Base-T copper links to 1000Base-SX fibre. It targets administrators who must connect older 10 or 100 Mbps devices to gigabit infrastructure without replacing existing cabling or switches.

Plug-and-Play Installation with Duplex SC Connector

The module requires no software configuration; simply insert the RJ-45 patch cord and duplex SC fibre cable. The main risk is mismatching the 850 nm multi-mode fibre type or exceeding the 0.55 km reach, which causes link failure or excessive errors.

Verify Copper Speed, Fibre Type

Confirm the copper port will negotiate at 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps and that the remote end uses 850 nm multi-mode fibre with a duplex SC interface. The 0.55 km limit rules out longer campus or metro spans, and single-mode fibre will not operate with this unit.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the link is operating at Gigabit speed after installing the M/GE-PSW-SX-01-EU?

Check the port LEDs on the connected switch or router; a steady 1000Base-SX indicator shows the transceiver has negotiated 1000 Mbps over the 850 nm multi-mode fiber link.

What cables and connectors are included with the M/GE-PSW-SX-01-EU and what must I source separately?

The unit provides one RJ-45 port and one duplex SC port; you supply the Cat5e or better patch cord for the copper side and a duplex multi-mode patch cable with SC connectors for the 850 nm fiber run up to 0.55 km.

Which version of this transceiver should I choose for a 0.55 km multi-mode run at 850 nm?

The M/GE-PSW-SX-01-EU is the single model rated for 1000Base-SX at 850 nm over multi-mode fiber up to 0.55 km, so select this part when those exact distance and wavelength parameters match your link.
