The Black Box MultiPower LGC011A-R2 is a Gigabit Ethernet transceiver/media converter with 1000Base-LX and 1000Base-TX ports, suited to network teams connecting fiber and copper links over distances up to 6.21 miles.
Recommended For
- Network installers connecting a 1GbE copper-only PC or Ethernet device to a compatible 1000Base-LX single-mode fiber link, such as a desktop connection to a fiber-fed LAN.
- IT teams extending a Gigabit Ethernet connection between buildings or network locations over compatible single-mode fiber, where a copper-to-fiber conversion is needed and the link is within the product’s stated 10 km range.
- Installers who want a compact, plug-and-play converter behind a workstation and prefer using its included external power supply rather than installing a fiber NIC in the computer.
- Network teams consolidating several compatible converters in a rack setup that uses Black Box’s optional PowerTray, rather than powering every unit only from its individual AC adapter.
Real-World Use Scenarios
- To connect a switch in one building to a network in another, an installer can convert the switch’s Gigabit Ethernet copper port to single-mode fiber; with compatible fiber equipment at the far end, this extends the link beyond typical copper-cable runs.
- When a network closet has a fiber uplink but a nearby router, switch, or other Ethernet device uses copper, the converter provides a Gigabit copper-to-fiber handoff without requiring that device to have a built-in fiber port.
- For a desktop or edge device with an Ethernet port but no fiber interface, the converter can bridge the copper connection to a single-mode fiber run, letting the device join a fiber-based network through a compatible connection at the other end.
- In a server room or network closet with several fiber-to-copper links, an installer can place the converter in a compatible Black Box PowerTray instead of powering it as a standalone unit, helping consolidate converter placement and power.
