Transition Networks M/E-TX-FX-01(SFP)-UK Media Converter

Product Description

The TRANSITION NETWORKS M/E-TX-FX-01(SFP)-UK is a mini media converter that bridges 100BASE-TX copper Ethernet to 100BASE-X fiber via an SFP slot. Designed for enterprise network infrastructure, this compact unit allows technicians to extend network runs beyond the distance limits of copper cabling by converting to fiber optic transmission. The SFP-based fiber port accepts standard 100BASE-X SFP transceivers, giving installers flexibility in choosing the appropriate fiber type and reach for the application. It is sized for tight spaces and designed for straightforward inline deployment within structured cabling systems.

This media converter is suited for enterprise environments where copper-to-fiber conversion is needed at the edge of a network segment. Typical installations include connecting a copper-based switch port to a fiber backbone run or extending a link across a building where copper distance limits are a factor. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the primary installers for this type of device. It is sold and shipped as a single unit.

Key Features

• Converts 100BASE-TX copper to 100BASE-X fiber for extended network reach
• SFP slot accepts field-selectable 100BASE-X transceivers for flexible fiber deployment
• Compact mini form factor fits in space-constrained installations
• Designed for enterprise network infrastructure environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or deployment-ready unit for enterprise 100BASE-TX to 100BASE-X fiber conversion applications requiring a mini form factor media converter with an SFP interface.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a qualified network technician or low-voltage cabling contractor. Power down or disconnect the relevant switch port before making copper or fiber connections to avoid interface errors. Insert the appropriate 100BASE-X SFP transceiver into the SFP slot before connecting fiber. Follow TIA-568 and local structured cabling standards for cable routing and termination.
