D-Link DMC-805G Gigabit Copper to SFP Media Converter

Extend the Network Beyond the Copper Cable The DMC-805G converts a copper Gigabit Ethernet connection to a separately selected supported SFP. It keeps existing copper-connected equipment in the network while providing a fibre path suited to the required route. A supported optical module determines the fibre type, connector and distance, giving the installation a deliberate choice of optical media. Use it as a standalone converter with its supplied adapter, or follow the compatible DMC-1000 chassis installation instructions for a central rack installation. Fibre leads and the remote endpoint are selected for the complete link; this is a data converter rather than a PoE injector. Highlights Media Connection 1 × 1000BASE-T RJ-45 port. 1 × 1000BASE-X SFP slot; module selected separately. Defined by the selected SFP. Link Design Defined by the supported optical SFP, fibre and link budget. Full-duplex Gigabit operation. Select compatible optics at both ends. Installation 120 × 88 × 25 mm compact housing. Use the matched supplied external DC adapter. Standalone or documented DMC-1000 chassis installation. 5-year warranty. Key Features Keep Copper Equipment on a Fibre Route The 1000BASE-T interface connects the local Ethernet equipment using a compliant twisted-pair cable. The optical side then carries the connection over the selected fibre route. This can extend a network between suitable locations without requiring every endpoint to have its own built-in fibre interface. Choose the Correct Optical Path A separately selected SFP establishes the wavelength, connector, fibre type and reach. Match the module to the converter’s supported operating mode and the remote optical device. The model name does not mean that an LC optical module is automatically included. Use Full-Duplex Gigabit Ethernet The converter supports a 1 Gbps link in each direction under the supported operating conditions. Manufacturer references to 2000 Mbps full-duplex transfer describe the aggregate of both directions, rather than a 2GbE port speed. The complete link is limited by its endpoints, selected media and cable installation. Install for the Size of the Site Start with a standalone unit and the correct external adapter. For a central installation, the documented DMC-1000 procedure removes the converter housing and mounts the board on the chassis carrier. Chassis compatibility and service instructions must match the exact converter configuration. See Link Status During Troubleshooting Power and link/activity indicators provide a quick local check during commissioning and service. Verify both copper and optical sides when diagnosing a missing connection. Supported link-loss functions can help carry a fault indication to the adjacent equipment when configured correctly. Complete the Connection Deliberately Select the fibre lead, remote endpoint and matched power adapter for the installation. Keep the converter within its specified environmental range and protect the fibre connectors from dust. It does not supply PoE power or replace the firewall and security controls on the surrounding network. Summary The DMC-805G provides a compact bridge between copper Ethernet and a selectable SFP optical connection. Match the media and remote endpoint, use the correct power adapter and test the complete link before putting it into service. Frequently Asked Questions Does It Include an Optical Transceiver?ExpandCollapse The converter has an SFP slot; the supported optical module is selected separately. What Fibre Does It Use?ExpandCollapse 1 × 1000BASE-X SFP slot; module selected separately. The selected SFP defines the actual fibre and connector. How Far Can the Fibre Link Run?ExpandCollapse Defined by the supported optical SFP, fibre and link budget. The complete optical budget includes cable, connectors, splices and the remote receiver. Does It Supply PoE?ExpandCollapse No. It carries Ethernet data without injecting PoE power. Power the endpoint separately or choose an appropriate separate PoE arrangement. Can It Be Installed in a Chassis?ExpandCollapse The manufacturer documents installation in the DMC-1000 chassis, following the board and carrier procedure for the exact converter. The chassis provides module power after installation. Which Power Adapter Should I Use?ExpandCollapse Use the matched supplied external DC adapter. Do not substitute an adapter based only on connector fit. Check the device label and supplied adapter voltage before connecting power. 더 보기
