Tripp Lite series N786-MDC-SFPSFP Fiber Optic Mode Converter

Tripp Lite series N786-MDC-SFPSFP Fiber Optic Mode Converter

Customizes Your Network Extension over Fiber Optic Cable

This network mode converter works with a variety of SFP and SFP+ transceivers to convert a multimode fiber signal to a singlemode fiber optic signal and extend it to a second network device. The mode conversion allows your network connection to reach hubs, switches and other devices located up to 80 kilometers (50 miles) away. The N786-MDC-SFPSFP is ideal for network engineers migrating toward higher-density data centers.

LEDs Indicate Installation Performance and Diagnostic Functions

Easy-to-read LEDs on the side of the mode converter indicate essential status information, including network speed and connection, signal diagnostics and unit power. LEDs indicate when a fiber cable has been severed or another cause of disruption in service has occurred. DIP switches on the unit allow changing from 1.25-8.5 Gbps speeds to 10.3 Gbps speeds based on your installation needs. 

Protective Metal Housing Built to Withstand a Variety of Hazards

The rugged metallic case is designed to operate in temperatures ranging from -20 to 60 degrees Celsius (-4 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit).

Flexible to Fit Your Network Needs

Not only does the N786-MDC-SFPSFP support SFP and SFP+ transceivers, as well as DDM functionality, it also supports IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base-Tx and IEEE 802.3z 1000Base-Fx protocols. You can easily hot-swap transceivers and cabling, so no system shutdown is necessary during routine maintenance.
