Transition Networks S2220-1040-EU Gigabit Sfp Media Converter

Product Description

The TRANSITION NETWORKS S2220-1040-EU is a copper-to-fiber media converter that bridges a 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet connection to a single SFP fiber port. It is designed for enterprise network infrastructure where technicians need to extend network segments beyond the distance limits of copper cabling or convert between media types without replacing existing switching hardware. The unit handles auto-negotiating gigabit copper on one side and accepts a field-selectable SFP transceiver module on the other, making it a flexible fit for varying fiber link requirements. Network installation professionals and enterprise IT technicians are the primary installers of this device.

This media converter is suited for enterprise LAN environments where a copper gigabit drop must hand off to a fiber backbone or a fiber-fed device. Typical installation scenarios include wiring closet deployments, server room edge connections, and inter-building fiber links where the SFP slot allows the technician to select the appropriate transceiver for the fiber type and distance in use. The unit is sold individually as a single-port standalone converter.

Key Features

• Converts 10/100/1000BASE-T copper to a single SFP fiber port
• Auto-negotiating copper interface supports 10, 100, and 1000 Mbps speeds
• SFP slot accepts field-installed transceiver modules for flexible fiber type and distance selection
• Designed for enterprise network infrastructure deployments
• Sold as a single unit (each)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style standalone media converter for enterprise copper-to-fiber network segment conversions where a single SFP transceiver port is required.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a qualified network technician or licensed low-voltage cabling contractor. Power down or disconnect the port on the upstream switch before connecting or disconnecting the copper or fiber interfaces. SFP transceiver modules should be handled per the manufacturer guidelines to avoid damage to the optical interfaces. Verify that the selected SFP transceiver is compatible with the fiber type, connector type, and link distance required for the specific installation.
