PLANET GT-1205A network media converter 1000 Mbit/s Black

 Description by quzo

PLANET GT-1205A Gigabit SFP Media Converter is upgraded by providing dual SFP slots; accept 100FX or 1000X SFP module and other features shown below: - DIP Switch for 100FX or 1000X SFP module supports on dual SFP slots- DIP Switch for 3-port Operation in Gigabit Switch Mode or Redundant Mode- Redundant Hardware Fiber Port Highly Convenient and Distance Extendable The GT-1205A is equipped with one 10/100/1000BASE-T port and dual SFP slots to support conversion between 10/100/1000BASE-T and 100/1000BASE-X network.

The dual SFP slots make the Ethernet signals connect easily and efficiently by adding single-mode or multi-mode media modules or the combination of both types. The GT-1205A provides high reliability and flexibility to extend the media transmission distance up to 550m or 2km (multi-mode fiber) and 10km or longer 20/40/80/120 kilometers (single-mode fiber or WDM fiber) depending on the optional 100/1000BASE-SX/LX SFP modules.Adjustable DIP Switch for 100FX or 1000X SFP Module Selection Via the built-in DIP switch on rear panel the GT-1205A can be configured as supports 100BASE-FX SFP module or 1000BASE-X SFP module on its dual SFP slots the GT-1205A can be connected over fiber optic cabling at a distance extended from 550 meters to 2km (multi-mode fiber) to 10/20/40/80/120 kilometers (single-mode fiber or WDM fiber) using the PLANET MFB/MGB series 100/1000BASE-X SFP modules.Adjustable 3-Port Switch Mode or 2 Fiber Port Redundant Mode Via the built-in DIP switch the GT-1205A can be configured as 3-port Ethernet switch or 2-port redundant media converter.

In the 3-port switch mode the GT-1205A can operate in Store-and-Forward mechanism with high performance; on the other hand when in the 2-port redundant mode it provides rapid fiber redundancy of link for highly critical Ethernet applications. The redundant mode also supports auto-recovering function. If the destination port of a packet is link-down it will forward the packet to the other port of the backup pair.Easy Deployment Standalone or with Chassis The GT-1205A Gigabit Media Converter can be used as a standalone unit or as a slide-in module to the PLANET Media Converter Chassis MC-700 and MC-1500 chassis series.

These media chassis can assist in providing DC power to the GT-1205A Gigabit Media Converter and the fiber-optic network can be maintained at one central location. With the 3-port switch mode they work in high performance Store and Forward mechanism and prevent packet loss with IEEE 802.3x Flow Control (Full-duplex) and Back Pressure (Half-duplex) function.Plug & Play Installation As the GT-1205A Gigabit Media Converter fully complies with IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX/FX IEEE 802.3ab 1000BASE-T and IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-LX/SX the Gigabit media conversion installation is quite quick and easy simply by using the plug and play feature.
