The EFB Elektronik EL029 Network Media Converter converts between Ethernet (RJ45) and fiber optic connections, supporting data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s. It accepts MiniGBIC modules to provide either multimode or single-mode fiber links and fits as a single unit or mounted in a compatible chassis (EL0CH1). The compact metal housing measures 94 x 71 x 26 mm and the package includes an external power supply and diagnostic LEDs for link status and activity.

Advantages

The converter supports autonegotiation and Auto MDI/MDI-X for simplified network integration and accepts MiniGBIC modules for flexible media choices. Its compact metal enclosure and included external power supply make it suitable for space-constrained installations. Diagnostic LEDs provide clear status information for quick troubleshooting.

Suitable for

• Extending Gigabit Ethernet links over fiber
• Converting RJ45 copper connections to MiniGBIC fiber
• Deployments requiring single-mode or multimode fiber by changing MiniGBICs
• Small server rooms, network closets, and point-to-point links

How to use

Install a compatible MiniGBIC module (multimode or single-mode) into the MiniGBIC slot if required. Connect the RJ45 Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port and the fiber cable to the MiniGBIC module. Power the unit using the supplied external power supply. The device supports autonegotiation and will establish link speed automatically; use diagnostic LEDs to verify link and activity status. For chassis use, insert into a compatible EL0CH1 chassis according to the chassis instructions.

Recommendations

Use certified MiniGBIC modules and fiber cabling that match the chosen mode (MM or SM) and meet required link budget and distance specifications. Ensure proper handling of fiber connectors and follow standard ESD precautions when installing modules and connecting cables.
