Omnitron miConverter Gx – Fiber media converter – GigE – 1000Base-T, 1000Base-X – RJ-45 / ST single-mode – up to 7.5 miles – 1310 nm

The miConverter Gx is a miniature 1000Base-T UTP copper to 1000Base-X fiber Gigabit Ethernet media converter. The miConverter Gx provides cost-effective fiber connectivity from Gigabit switches to diagnostic equipment, desktop and laptop computers, and is the first Gigabit media converter powered by a USB port (1.0, 1.1, and 2.0). The miConverter Gx can be powered by a computers USB port using the optional USB Power Adaptor Cable, which reduces the modules weight and eliminates the need to tether the miConverter Gx to an electrical outlet. The Plug-and-Play capability of the miConverter Gx simplifies fiber-to-the-laptop and fiber-to-the-desktop deployments. The miConverter Gx features Auto-Negotiation, which allows connected network devices to auto-negotiate their Duplex and Pause modes. The miConverter Gx also offers manual configuration with built-in DIP-Switches for compatibility with legacy Gigabit fiber products. These features ensure the miConverter Gx is compatible with the widest range of Gigabit fiber equipment.
