Mighter Fiber-to-Copper/Copper-to-Fiber Converter

The Mighter MCFC-1000 converter family provides an economical, long-established solution for linking central server/switch clusters to remote network devices. The MCFC-1000 is a low-profile, rack-able chassis with sixteen modular media card slots, two modular power supply bays and auto-sensing AC Power Supplies. Media converter modules provide 10-Megabit Ethernet, through Gigabit Ethernet and One-Gigabit Fibre Channel connections. One set of Fiber-to-Fiber modules support wavelength conversion for one-Mbps through 155 Mbps (OC-3) data rates another set supports Gigabit data rates and a third supports one-Gigabit Fibre Channel. A Multi-rate Transponder module offers protocol agnostic, wavelength conversion from 50 Mbps to 2.7 Gigabits per second. MCFC-1000 converter cards utilize standard multi-mode & single-mode Fiber transceivers as well as Single-Fiber Bi-Directional and CWDM type transceiver types. Several multi-channel Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) multiplexer modules enable multiple wavelengths (data channels) to be transported in parallel over a single Fiber Optic link.

Simple, User-Friendly Installation
Simple configuration - Provides trouble-free installation. Mid-height, 1.7 U chassis aids in thermal management. Stable design, long production hot-swappable converter cards and redundant Power Supplies, provide secure, peace of mind. Just make connections, power-up and forget it!

Highly Flexible Network Configuration Options
Use CWDM capabilities to transform individual channels into optical VLANs across a common Fiber link. Use Multi-rate transponders or Fiber-to-Fiber cards to add single-mode capability to non-Ethernet protocols. Simply plug in Copper and Fiber connectors to add long-range Links. Easy Expansion!

Unparalleled Network Integration and Versatility
A wide selection of Fiber Optic connectors, (including CWDM and Single-Fiber Bi-Directional), expand customer access and utilization of existing Fiber installations. Maintains the ROI of the customer’s original copper/Fiber investment!
