Gigabit Ethernet Media Converters

Signamax Connectivity Systems’ Gigabit Ethernet Media Converters make it simple to extend distances over multimode or single-mode fibre.

They are designed to expand the scope of your Gigabit Ethernet network applications and are 100% compliant with Ethernet IEEE 802.3ab and 802.3z specifications.

These converters maintain the same form factor as other Signamax media converters, allowing use in the Model 065-1180 Signamax Rack Mount Chassis.

Twisted pair to fibre optic converters for both multi-mode and single-mode fibre, multimode to single-mode converters, and single-mode to single-mode extenders are available.
