Omnitron Systems recently introduced the iConverter 10GXT, which it characterizes as “the first 10/100/1000 RJ45 to 10G fiber media converter.” The iConverter 10GXT enables connectivity between network equipment with 10G fiber ports and laptops, workstations, test equipment and switches with 10/100/1000 RJ45 ports. The 10GXT media converter conforms to 10Base-T, 100Base-TX, 1000Base-T, 1000Base-X, and 10GBase-R specifications, and supports 1000Base-X SFP, 10GBase-R SFP+, or 10GBase-R XFP transceivers for standard or CWDM wavelengths.
“Autonegotiation and autocrossover on the 10/100/1000 RJ45 port simplifies installation, and fault detection modes can be configured to provide fault identification and isolation for easy troubleshooting of network faults,” Omnitron said. “The iConverter 10GXT is available as a compact, unmanaged standalone unit, and supports jumbo frames up to 10,056 bytes.” The media converter supports an industrial temperature range of -40 to +75 degrees Celsius.
Omnitron provides free 24/7 technical support and a lifetime warranty on the made-in-the-U.S. iConverter 10GXT.
