10/100/1000M Auto Negotiation SFP Fiber Optic Media Converter With One SFP Slot

FAMC-SFPGA , 10/100/1000M Auto Negotiation SFP Fiber Optic Media Converter With One SFP Slot

In actual purchasing of optical media converter, price is an important factor for enterprises to consider, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises and SOHO office. In our opinion, fiber media converter at hundreds of dollars are enough to meet the needs of ordinary enterprises, unless special industries, such as telecommunications, military and so on. Of course, in addition to the price, we must also consider the compatibility of the fiber optic media converter with the surrounding environment and its stability and reliability, otherwise the price is lower and the purchase is useless. In order to enable you to pick a good Ethernet media converter, Fiberall hereby list some principles to buy for your reference:

(1) to see whether the media converter can support full duplex and half duplex, because some chips on the market can only support full duplex or half duplex but not both, if connect it to other brands switch or hub which use half duplex mode, it will cause serious impact and packet loss.

(2) to see if the fiber to Ethernet media converter had connected with other fiber connector to test, optical fiber media converter is more and more on the market, so different brands of media converter may not mutually compatible with each other and long time transmission, packet loss, transmission unsteadiness phenomenon may happen.

(3) to see if the fiber optic media converter has safety mechanism for packet loss prevention, in order to reduce costs, some manufacturers often using register data transmission mode in the production of optical fiber transceiver, the biggest disadvantage of this method is that the data transmission will cause instability, packet loss, and the best way is to use the buffer circuit design, it will avoid data loss.

(4) to see whether the fiber media converter have done temperature test, because the optical transceiver itself generate heat when used, since the installation environment are usually outdoors, so when the temperature is too high, need to know the optical fiber media converter can be in normal operation or not.

(5) to see if the fiber media converter meets the international industry standard or not, if it does not meet the standards, then it may have compatibility problems.

(6) measure the after-sales service of the supplier, select the professional company with strong strength, high technical strength and good reputation.

(7) carefully observe the appearance of the fiber optic media converter when you purchase, and see if the shell of fiber module is old, glossy or worn. In order to reap huge profits, some manufacturers use used or old optical fiber transceiver in fiber optic media converter or optical switches and other equipment, these products with second-hand optical module will bring many problem and hidden trouble for network transmission, such as if there is contamination with optical fiber module, it will influent on signal transmission and decrease the transmission quality. If the transmission quality decreases, the sensitivity of receiver is also reduced, and the phenomenon of data packet dropout is also caused. Meanwhile due to the second-hand fiber transceiver, the service life will also be discounted, failure of parts will happen at any time and so on.
