Benefits:
Media Type Conversion
Zyxel MC1000-SFP-FP is a media converter with Gigabit-class traffic conversion capability. It’s specially designed for active Ethernet ETTx deployment to ensure extra bandwidth and future-proof investment. Unique features like fiber protection and wall-mount design allow users to easily deploy the MC1000-SFP-FP for fiber connectivity at customer premises.
Wide SFP Transceiver Adaptability
The open Gigabit SFP slot accepts a wide range of SFP transceivers such as the latest bi-directional single fiber (BX) or traditional ones for maximum deployment flexibility. In addition, network span can also be extended easily with appropriate fiber transceivers.
Fiber Protection Accommodates and Simplifies
The fiber protection design is capable of organizing and accommodating fiber cables for better cable preservation and significantly easier installation. In addition, the wall-mount design of the MC1000-SFP-FP provides better deployment flexibility as well.
Easy Troubleshooting
With the Link Fault Signaling (LFS) mechanism, one failed link detected from copper port will force to stop a link on the fiber port, or it will conduct the linkdown on fiber part, and vice versa. The copper downlink port will stop transmitting and turned off as soon as the remote link is failed, and the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) of the connected switch will start functioning as a result to activate the backup link that secure the network operation. Transparent link status is delivered by LFS mechanism to make network recovery and troubleshooting easier and faster. Transparent link status data will be sent by the Link Fault Signaling (LFS) mechanism for the users to perform the network recovery and troubleshooting processes easier and faster.
Easy Installation
With Auto-negotiation, the copper port can synchronize transmission speed and mode with peer devices. In addition, Auto-crossover on copper port eliminates circuit mismatch problem by auto-sensing the MDI/MDIX function; both features make installation easier to complete. Meanwhile, multiple configurations can be done via DIP switches to give users more management capability for better control over the devices.
