Network Media Converter EFB Elektronik MCT-3002SFP-DR

The EFB Elektronik MCT-3002SFP-DR is a compact network media converter that converts 1000Base-T (RJ45) to 1000Base-X (SFP) for Gigabit Ethernet applications. Designed for reliable wired networking, it supports dual-speed SFP modules, provides frame checking and error filtering, and includes diagnostic LEDs and link alarm functionality. The unit is housed in a metal case and comes with an external power supply. Dimensions (D x W x H): 74 x 51 x 20 mm.

Advantages

This media converter supports up to 1000 Mbit/s throughput and auto-negotiates common Ethernet rates (1000/100/10). It offers diagnostic LEDs for FDX, power, speed and status to simplify installation and troubleshooting, and includes link alarm and error-filtering features to improve connection stability. The metal housing provides mechanical durability while the compact form factor is suitable for rack or standalone use. An external power adapter is included for immediate deployment.

How to use

Install the SFP module appropriate for your fiber type into the SFP socket, then connect the fiber cable. Connect the RJ45 copper cable to the Gigabit Ethernet port. Plug in the included external power supply and power on the unit. Observe the diagnostic LEDs to verify link status and speed; enable or configure any required network settings on connected devices. The converter operates transparently and does not require additional drivers.

Recommendations

Place the media converter in a dry, ventilated location away from excessive heat. Use compatible SFP modules and correct fiber transceivers for single-mode or multi-mode fiber as required. Ensure proper grounding and avoid mechanical stress on cables to maintain reliable link performance.
