The FRM220-1000TS is a versatile, transparent Gigabit Ethernet media converter that seamlessly transitions between 1000Base-T (copper) and 1000Base-SX/LX (fiber) interfaces. Designed for high-performance networking, this converter supports both managed and non-managed configurations, depending on whether it’s installed in an FRM220 chassis with a Network Management Card (NMC) or used as a stand-alone device. It accommodates a wide range of industry-standard SFP modules, offering multi-mode and single-mode fiber options, as well as BiDi (bidirectional) SFPs that enable efficient data transmission over a single fiber cable. The device is fully transparent to Ethernet packets, making it compatible with any frame size, including undersized or jumbo frames (over 9K bytes). Equipped with LED indicators for power, UTP port speed, link and duplex status for both the copper and fiber interfaces, the FRM220-1000TS ensures easy monitoring and management of network connections. Its low latency and robust functionality make it an ideal choice for diverse networking environments where reliable, high-speed data transfer is essential.
