GE-C351, new Gigabit Ethernet half converter from Ruby Tech

C3, Communications Cables and Components, specialized company of the Cofitel Group, Ruby Tech's GE-C351 Gigabit Ethernet media converter has been launched on the market, supporting 1000Base-T to 1000Base-LX signal conversion over a fiber bead using an integrated WDM.

C3, Communications Cables and Components has introduced the Ruby Tech GE-C351 Gigabit Ethernet Media Converter. This device performs Gigabit Ethernet 1000Base-T to 1000Base-LX signal conversion over a fiber drop using an integrated WDM multiplexer..

WDM technology, with passive optical multiplexing, “multiplexes” transmission lines (TX) and reception (RX) in a single fiber. In this way, Cabling costs can be halved by replacing a dual fiber converter with the GE-C351. For example, a pair of GE-C351 with different wavelength could be installed (1310 nm at one end and 1550 nm at the other end) for point-to-point transmission tasks with a range of up to 20 kilometers over single-mode fiber.

The GE-C301 can be used as a stand-alone unit (standalone) or as a slide-in rack module located in a central cabinet. This model, what measures 26.2 x 70.3 x 94 mm and weight 200 grams, It is compatible with RoHS regulations and has the CE Marking.
