Key Features

  • 100BaseTX copper to 100BaseX fiber conversion
  • SFP-based optical interface
  • Ethernet Technology: Gigabit Ethernet
  • Small form factor design
  • Transition Networks / Lantronix branding
  • Media converter class for copper-to-fiber uplinks
  • Convert copper uplinks to fiber using 100BaseTX to 100BaseX SFP media conversion
  • Preserve existing Ethernet endpoints with a compact edge-network transition design
Extend Ethernet beyond copper limits with a compact media conversion point designed for edge deployments. This Lantronix Mini unit converts 100BaseTX copper to 100BaseX fiber through an SFP interface, giving infrastructure teams a practical path to fiber uplinks without replacing the access-side network. It is well suited for environments where distance, electrical isolation, or reduced interference is more important than adding another switch. The small form factor makes it easy to place at the edge of a rack, in a wiring closet, or near a remote device cluster. By separating the copper segment from the fiber backbone, it helps maintain signal integrity across longer runs and supports cleaner network segmentation. That matters when uptime, cable plant flexibility, and predictable transport are worth more than a low-cost adapter. For teams standardizing on fiber backbones, this converter provides a focused transition point rather than a general-purpose device. It is a straightforward way to preserve installed copper endpoints while moving critical links onto fiber infrastructure.

Ideal For

  • Connect copper-based access devices to a fiber backbone
  • Extend Ethernet links across longer cable runs in wiring closets
  • Isolate network segments where electrical noise is a concern
  • Bridge legacy copper infrastructure into fiber uplink environments

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this media converter do?▾

It converts 100BaseTX copper Ethernet to 100BaseX fiber through an SFP interface, allowing copper endpoints to connect into a fiber network.

Where is this product typically deployed?▾

It is typically used at the network edge, in wiring closets, or in remote equipment areas where copper must transition to fiber.

Why choose a media converter instead of replacing the switch?▾

A media converter preserves existing copper-connected devices while extending the link over fiber, which is often faster and less disruptive than a full switch refresh.

Does this unit support long-distance fiber runs?▾

It is designed for fiber-based extension, but the actual distance depends on the installed SFP and fiber type used in the deployment.
