Perle S-10GT Media Converters transparently connect 10GBase-T Ethernet links over multimode or single mode fiber. Each 10GbE Media Converter comes with one RJ45 10GBase-T port and an empty slot for one SFP+ or XFP module. The S-10GRT additionally supports 10/100/1000/2500/10000 rate conversion.

Copper to Fiber conversion is achieved by inserting XFP or SFP+ fiber transceivers that support multimode and single-mode fiber, including CWDM/DWDM wavelengths. Copper to copper is achieved by inserting SFP+ Direct Attach Cable (DAC), also known as twinax, or XFP 10Gbase-CX4 transceivers.

The empty transceiver ports on the S-10GT Media Converters allow for flexible network configurations to meet any requirement using a variety of 10G transceivers supplied by Perle, Cisco or other manufacturers of MSA compliant SFP+ and XFPs. You can use these products to convert:

• 10GBase-T (RJ45) to SFP+
• 10GBase-T (RJ45) to XFP
• 1000Base-T (RJ45) to 1000Base-X (SFP)
• 10GBase-T (RJ45) to Direct Attach DAC copper twinax (SFP+)
• 10GBase-T (RJ45) to 10GBase-CX4 (XFP)
• 10/100/1000/2500/10000 Ethernet
