Industrial 10G SFP+ to SFP+ OEO Converter (3R Repeater) with 1G Ethernet Media

Industrial 1G/10G SFP+ to SFP+ OEO Converter (3R Repeater) with 1G Ethernet Media Converter Function

Product Overview:

The ETH-IMC2402-OEO Series is an industrial-grade 1G/10G SFP+ to SFP+ Optical-Electrical-Optical (OEO) Converter designed for high-speed network extension and media conversion in demanding environments. This versatile device functions as both a 3R (Reamplify, Reshape, Retime) fiber repeater for long-distance 10Gbps transmission and a 1G Ethernet media converter, ensuring signal integrity across extended network segments.

Supporting multiple protocols including SDH/SONET STM-64/OC-192, 10G Fiber Channel, and 10G Ethernet, this converter is ideal for network backbone applications in SAN, LAN, and MAN infrastructures. It features flexible optical wavelength conversion (1310nm/1550nm/CWDM/DWDM) and loop-back functionality, making it suitable for telecommunications rooms, data centers, and R&D laboratories.

With a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to 80°C and robust industrial design, this converter reliably extends fiber optic connections up to 120km while providing seamless conversion between fiber and copper interfaces. Its advanced signal regeneration capabilities ensure optimal performance in harsh environmental conditions, making it an essential solution for modern high-speed network infrastructure deployments.
