What types of fiber does the converter support?
It supports both Multi-Mode (1000BASE-SX) and Single-Mode (1000BASE-LX) fiber connections.
How far can the fiber signals go without degradation?
For 62.5/125 micron multi-mode fiber cable, the maximum distance is up to 220m. For 50/125-micron multi-mode fiber cable, it's up to 550m. For single- mode fiber (1000BASE-LX), it's up to 20 km.
What type of connectors does the converter use?
The converter uses an RJ-45 connector for twisted-pair cables and an LC connector compatible with SFP transceivers for fiber cables.
Can I use the DMC-805G as a standalone device?
Yes, the DMC-805G can function as a standalone device, or it can be installed in the DMC-1000 chassis.
What are the power requirements for the converter?
The converter operates with an external power adapter with a voltage input of 7.5V and current of 1.5A. Its maximum power consumption is 5.5 watts.
How do I know which power adapter model to choose when ordering?
The ordering information provides different model codes based on regional power adapter requirements. For instance, DMC-805G/A comes with a US standard power adapter, while DMC-805G/E comes with an EU standard one.
