Comnet CNFE1004S1A Ethernet Media Converter

Product Description

The COMNET CNFE1004S1A is a single-mode fiber Ethernet media converter designed for extending network connectivity over fiber optic infrastructure. Media converters of this type bridge copper-based Ethernet segments to fiber optic cabling, allowing longer transmission distances than standard copper runs permit. This unit is sold individually and is typically specified by network technicians, security integrators, and low-voltage contractors working on surveillance, access control, or enterprise LAN installations where copper distance limits must be overcome.

The CNFE1004S1A is suited for applications requiring single-mode fiber transmission, which supports significantly longer distances than multimode fiber. Typical installations include inter-building links, campus backbone connections, and long-run IP camera or access control panel feeds. This converter is appropriate for both new installations and retrofit projects where existing copper infrastructure needs to connect to a fiber backbone segment.

Key Features

• Single-mode fiber interface for extended transmission range
• Converts copper Ethernet to fiber optic signal
• Sold as an individual unit for flexible deployment
• Suitable for security, surveillance, and enterprise LAN applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style media converter for use in single-mode fiber Ethernet network segments requiring copper-to-fiber signal conversion.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage or network technician familiar with fiber optic termination and Ethernet infrastructure standards. Power down connected equipment before making cable connections. Follow applicable local codes and TIA-568 structured cabling standards when routing and terminating fiber runs. Do not exceed the fiber type and connector specifications for this device when selecting patch cables or pigtails.
