Fiber Integration Used in pairs or as a single unit, this mini media converter will ease the integration of fiber optic cabling into copper-rich Gigabit Ethernet environments Extend Network Distance Convert 1000Base-T ports over to 1000Base-SX/LX on a port-by-port basis. Fiber supports the transmission of Gigabit Ethernet data over much longer distances than is possible twisted pair Low-Latency Design As a layer-1 design, this Mini converter will retransmit Gigabit Ethernet signals without any store-and-forward packet inspection delays found in other layer-2 devices
