Overview

Reviews
The M/GE-PSW Series is a Gigabit Ethernet stand-alone Mini media converter that provides cost effective, entry-level media conversion between 10/100/1000Base-T ports and 1000Base-SX/LX ports. With its fixed configuration, deployments are just plug-and-play, and with its small size, it is ideal for locations where space is limited. Operating at Layer 2, the data link layer, this converter not only converts copper to fiber, it also provides rate conversion allowing legacy 10/100 copper devices to connect to 1000Base-SX/LX fiber.

The Transition Networks Mini Gigabit Ethernet Media Converter links 10/100/1000Base-T copper Ethernet to 1000Base-SX fiber, making it suitable for network teams extending a copper connection over a fiber link up to 1,804.46 ft.
Recommended For
- Network technicians connecting a 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet device to an existing 1000Base-SX multimode fiber link with a compatible LC connector.
- Installers linking devices across a building where copper Ethernet distance is insufficient, provided the existing multimode fiber, connector, and run length match the converter’s 1000Base-SX requirements.
- IT teams integrating legacy 10/100 Mbps Ethernet equipment into a 1000 Mbps fiber network without replacing the endpoint device.
- Technicians adding a compact, standalone copper-to-fiber conversion point in a space-limited network closet or equipment area.
Real-World Use Scenarios
- When a switch or router has a copper Ethernet port but the network run is multimode fiber, this converter bridges the two media types so the device can join the fiber-connected network.
- To extend a gigabit LAN beyond a copper cable run, use a matching converter at each end of a compatible multimode fiber link; network traffic can then pass between the connected Ethernet devices over fiber.
- In a network with existing 10/100 Mbps equipment and a gigabit fiber connection, the converter can provide the copper connection; the older device still operates at the speed its own interface supports.
- For a fiber-to-the-desk setup, place the converter near a copper-only computer or other Ethernet device so it can connect to a compatible multimode fiber outlet.
- In a crowded wiring area, the mini form factor can fit where a larger standalone converter is inconvenient, providing a compact copper-to-fiber link for a nearby network device.
