The Gigabit Ethernet is a 1gbps media converter ten times faster than Fast Ethernet. The gigabit media converter is designed for the needs of the high-speed ISP(internet service providers) today. Gigabit media converter refers to an Ethernet converter that operates at Gigabit Ethernet speeds, which is up to 1 Gigabit per second (Gbps) (1000 Mbps). It is also backward compatible with the 10/100 standard, which is called auto-negotiation.
The Gigabit fiber converter is usually built with the latest network management features, allowing network administrators to assign QoS and security policies to specific applications. These advanced features help guarantee service level agreements and enhance security. Fast Ethernet Converter with similar management and security functions often demand a premium, in order to narrow the price gap compared to the gigabit media converter price.
Gigabit fiber converter is commonly designed with multiple RJ45 interfaces and/or SFP slots, the fast ethernet to gigabit ethernet converter works well using a twisted-pair copper cable (specifically, the cat5e and cat6 cables that follow the 1000BASE-T cabling standard), as well as SFP optical transceivers working on corresponding patch cable types. It's common that some fast ethernet to gigabit ethernet converters also have a couple of 10G SFP+ ports for uplinking a higher speed 10GB switch.
Except for providing higher bandwidth and more robust management, gigabit fiber converters are also more energy-efficient than Fast Ethernet switches. Enterprises could lower their power consumption by deploying gigabit fiber converters at the network edge.
The gigabit fiber converters on the network edge may prepare your local area network for the upcoming convergence or the next technology refresh.
In addition to gigabit fiber converters, we can also provide fiber optic media converters of different types for your needs. Get the competitive price now！
