Transition Networks SBFTF1011-105-NA Media Converter St Mm

Product Description

The TRANSITION NETWORKS SBFTF1011-105-NA is a fast Ethernet media converter that bridges copper 10/100BASE-TX network segments to 100BASE-FX fiber optic connections. Using a 1x9 optical transceiver module with an ST connector interface, this unit converts standard RJ45 twisted-pair copper links to multimode fiber, extending network reach beyond the distance limits of copper cabling. It is suited for enterprise and commercial network infrastructure deployments where copper-to-fiber conversion is required at the edge or within a wiring closet. Network technicians and systems integrators are the typical installers.

This media converter is designed for enterprise network environments requiring reliable copper-to-fiber transitions. Typical applications include connecting copper-based workgroup switches to fiber backbone infrastructure, extending Ethernet runs in commercial buildings, and integrating legacy copper equipment into fiber-based networks. The 1x9 form factor and ST multimode interface make it compatible with standard multimode fiber patch panels and distribution frames commonly found in structured cabling systems.

Key Features

• Converts 10/100BASE-TX copper (RJ45) to 100BASE-FX multimode fiber
• ST connector interface for compatibility with standard multimode fiber plant
• 1x9 optical transceiver module design
• Supports both 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps copper-side speeds
• Suitable for enterprise hub and switch infrastructure deployments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style media converter for enterprise network environments requiring 10/100BASE-TX copper to 100BASE-FX multimode fiber conversion with an ST connector interface.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a qualified network technician or systems integrator. Power down or disconnect the host network equipment before installing or removing the converter to prevent damage to network hardware. Follow applicable TIA/EIA structured cabling standards when connecting fiber patch cables, and ensure multimode fiber type is matched on both ends of the link. Do not exceed the rated fiber distance for the optical interface.
