Prime Connect 4055s

The Optech Network Solutions Prime Connect 4055s is a compact Gigabit Ethernet media converter designed to connect copper Ethernet networks with fiber-optic infrastructure. It provides a 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 Ethernet interface and a modular SFP interface, allowing the fiber connection to be selected according to the required fiber type, connector and transmission distance. The modular SFP architecture provides flexibility for different network deployments, including multi-mode and single-mode fiber applications. The device supports automatic Ethernet negotiation and provides front-panel LED indicators for convenient monitoring of power, link and network activity.
