Signamax Inc. FO-065-1185 16-bay Rack Mount Media Converter

Product Description

The SIGNAMAX INC. FO-065-1185 is a 16-bay rack mount media converter chassis designed for enterprise network infrastructure. This unit provides a centralized, rack-mountable housing that accepts up to 16 individual media converter modules, enabling fiber-to-copper or fiber-to-fiber signal conversion across multiple network segments from a single 19-inch rack position. It is typically installed and managed by licensed network technicians or structured cabling professionals in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and enterprise LAN environments.

This chassis is suited for enterprise deployments where consolidating media conversion points into a managed rack environment is required. Typical installations include server rooms, network operation centers, and campus distribution closets where multiple fiber uplinks and copper handoffs must be managed in a compact footprint. The modular bay design allows individual converter modules to be added or swapped without taking the entire chassis offline, supporting scalable buildouts.
