Transition Networks M/E-TX-FX-01(SM)-SA Media Converter

Product Description

The TRANSITION NETWORKS M/E-TX-FX-01(SM)-SA is a mini media converter that bridges 100BASE-TX copper Ethernet connections to 100BASE-FX single-mode fiber. This compact standalone unit is designed for network infrastructure applications where copper-to-fiber conversion is required at the edge of a network segment. It suits environments where extending transmission distance beyond standard copper limitations is a priority. Network technicians and low-voltage installers deploy this converter in enterprise, commercial, and industrial settings to integrate fiber runs into existing Fast Ethernet infrastructure.

This converter is suited for enterprise network deployments where single-mode fiber runs connect to copper-based switches, routers, or end devices. Typical installations include office buildings, campus networks, and industrial facilities that require reliable copper-to-fiber transitions. The standalone form factor makes it straightforward to deploy without a chassis or additional housing.

Key Features

• Converts 100BASE-TX copper to 100BASE-FX single-mode fiber
• Mini standalone form factor for flexible, chassis-free deployment
• Supports Fast Ethernet at 100 Mbps
• Single-mode fiber interface for extended transmission distances
• Sold as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style standalone media converter for Fast Ethernet networks requiring 100BASE-TX to 100BASE-FX single-mode fiber conversion.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a qualified network technician or low-voltage cabling professional. Power down or disconnect any connected network equipment before installing or removing the converter. Follow TIA-568 and applicable local codes for fiber and copper termination. Do not connect single-mode fiber cables to multimode-rated ports, as this will result in signal loss or link failure.
