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
The fixed 1000BASE-LX single-mode SC interface must connect to an appropriate fibre cable and matching remote device. Up to 20 km with suitable single-mode fibre. Check the optical budget and connector losses for the route.
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.
