FibroLAN Media Converters

Gigabit Ethernet Converters and Extenders
This series provides conversion from a fiber-optic multimode GBE link (1000Base-SX) or from 1000Base-TX to a Single Mode Long Reach Link (1000Base-LX) to allow extension of up to 80km.

This approach is the most flexible and economical way to build GBE networks: by purchasing low cost network elements (NICs and switches) terminated with RJ-45 or SX interfaces, and adding the exact number of GSM links (of required distances) up to 50% (sometimes even more) of the network cost may be saved.

Unlike other products available in the market, the GSM series is based on a full digital technology: Signals from one F/O port are converted to digital electrical signals, fully retimed then converted again to F/O transmitted from the second port. This design provides a resilient and steady conversion and advanced control and diagnostic features. In addition it facilitates special applications like daisy-chaining, back-to-back and management. It is transparent to duplex mode.

The Fault Propagation Function between the ports allows real time end-to-end link failure alert. A Loop-Back function (separate for each F/O port) simplifies troubleshooting of link problems. Each port provides separate Link and Activity indications for enhanced diagnostics. The GSM are available with full SNMP management.
