Transition Networks SGETF1040-110-JP Sfp Media Converter

Product Description

The TRANSITION NETWORKS SGETF1040-110-JP is a Gigabit Ethernet media converter designed to bridge 1000BASE-T copper networks with 1000BASE SFP fiber or SFP-based uplinks. This unit accepts a standard RJ-45 copper connection on one side and an SFP slot on the other, allowing network technicians to extend or convert Gigabit signals where copper infrastructure meets fiber backbone. It is classified as an enterprise PoE device, making it suited for structured cabling environments where copper-to-fiber conversion is required at the edge of a network segment. Installation is typically performed by licensed network technicians or qualified IT infrastructure professionals.

The SGETF1040-110-JP fits enterprise network environments where Gigabit copper runs must be converted to fiber for longer distances or physical plant segmentation. Typical scenarios include connecting a copper-based switch port to a fiber uplink, extending network runs beyond the 100-meter copper limitation, or integrating fiber backbone segments into a predominantly copper LAN. It is sold as a single unit and is appropriate for both new infrastructure builds and retrofit installations where fiber conversion is needed at a specific node.

Key Features

• Converts 1000BASE-T copper (RJ-45) to 1000BASE SFP interface for Gigabit fiber connectivity
• SFP slot accommodates interchangeable SFP modules for flexible fiber type and distance selection
• Classified as an enterprise PoE device for structured network infrastructure applications
• Sold as a single unit for targeted deployment at individual conversion points

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard media converter for enterprise Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure requiring 1000BASE-T copper to 1000BASE SFP conversion.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified network technicians following applicable structured cabling and network equipment standards. Power down or disconnect the host switch port before connecting or removing the SFP module to prevent damage to the transceiver. Ensure the SFP module selected matches the fiber type, wavelength, and distance requirements of the link before seating it in the slot. Do not force the SFP module into the slot; verify locking mechanism engagement before applying power.
