Transition Networks ION Gigabit Ethernet Media and Rate Converter Module - 1 x Network (RJ-45) - Multi-mode - 0 mil Fiber - Gigabit Ethernet - 10/100/1000Base-T, 1000Base-SX - 0.55 km - 1 x Expansion Slots - SFP - 1 x SFP Slots - DC - Internal

The ION C3210 device provides an interface between 10/100/1000Base-T ports and 1000Base-SX/LX ports allowing users to integrate fiber optic cabling into 10/100/1000Base-T copper environments.

Operating at Layer 2, this converter not only converts copper to fiber, it also does Rate conversion, converting 10/100/1000Base-T copper to 1000Base fiber.

Applications include: integrate fiber into copper based networking environments and bridging legacy 10/100 devices into a Gigabit Backbone.
