Reviews
PLANET XT-705A Media Converter is equipped with one 10G/5G/ 2.5G /1G/100BASE-T auto-negotiation port and one 10GBASE-X SFP+ slot. It supports 10Gigabit Ethernet media conversion from copper 10GBASE-T to fiber multi-mode or single-mode, utilizing 10GBASE-SR or 10GBASE-LR SFP+ transceiver installed in the SFP+ slot to extend distances to servers, switches and patch panels. The deployment distance can be extended from 300 meters (multi-mode) to up to 60 kilometers (single-mode). They are designed for use in network environments where the ultra-high bandwidth provided by 10Gigabit Ethernet is required, for example, data center cloud computing, enterprise backbones, campus networks, and carrier infrastructure.

LOADING...

The PLANET XT-705A is a multirate Ethernet media converter for network installers who need to connect a 10G/5G/2.5G/1G/100M copper RJ45 link to a 10GBASE-X SFP+ link.

Recommended For

  • Network installers extending a 10GbE copper connection over fiber between a server, switch, or patch panel and a more distant network location.
  • Advanced home-network and homelab users bridging a multi-gigabit RJ45 modem, router, or device to 10G SFP+ equipment in a single network link.
  • Businesses or campus-network teams converting a single copper Ethernet run to fiber where the selected SFP+ optic and fiber type match the far-end equipment.
  • Installers fitting a compact converter into a wall-mounted, desktop, optional DIN-rail, or compatible PLANET media-converter-chassis setup.

Real-World Use Scenarios

  • When a multigigabit modem or router has an RJ45 port but the firewall or router only has an SFP+ WAN port, the XT-705A can bridge the connection; the copper side negotiates at a supported rate, though actual internet speed still depends on the service and the rest of the network.
  • To connect a copper-Ethernet device to a fiber-based switch or network, install a compatible SFP+ transceiver and link the XT-705A’s RJ45 side to the device; this converts the link medium without requiring the endpoint itself to have a fiber port.
  • For a building, campus, or facility link where a copper run is impractical, connect a nearby Ethernet device over RJ45 and carry the network over fiber to a distant switch, server, or patch panel; the usable distance depends on the selected SFP+ optic and fiber type.
  • When a 2.5G-capable access point or other multigigabit endpoint needs to reach an SFP+ network, the XT-705A can accept its copper link at a supported negotiated speed and provide a fiber-side connection; check compatibility across the transceiver and the connected network equipment.
  • In a network cabinet or equipment room, mount the converter on a wall or DIN rail, or place it in a compatible PLANET media-converter chassis, to connect a copper segment into a centralized fiber setup.
