FeatureS
Save space.
Only 1U high, these converters are the ideal choice when space
is at a premium. They also feature internal power supplies so you don’t
need to make space for bulky external transformers. And because the
power supplies are autosensing 120–240 VAC, you can use these
converters internationally.

Port settings are externally access ible, and each port includes
diagnostic LEDs. Twisted-pair ports feature a straight-through/cross-
over switch. The BNC port on the LMC009A-R4 features a termination

When faults occur, diagnostic LEDs alert you to location and type,
so you can quickly isolate any breaks or problems on the copper or

OVERVIEW
What’s more, these converters really go the distance. Multimode
models send data 2 km (1.2 mi.). Single-mode models send data 15
km to 60 kilometers (9.3 to 37.2 mi.). Powerful Plus models run up to
80 kilometers (49.7 mi.).
Double your fiber capacity.

Double your fiber capacity.
With the single-strand models, you get all the benefits of Compact
Media Converters, plus the ability to double your fiber capacity.
Whether you already have fiber or you’re planning to install it, you can
make better use of it with these converters.

Ideal for ISPs and enterprise networks, these converters enable you
to double your fiber capacity when converting 100BASE-TX wiring
to fiber optic wiring in Ethernet networks. The converters compress
two individual channels that contain transmit and receive wavelengths
(1310 or 1550 nm) onto one single-mode, full-duplex fiber. The con-
verters must be used in matched transmit and receive pairs.

Use a pair of media converters to connect two multimode fiber optic network segments
via single-mode fiber.
