Convertitore di segnale Secomp RJ45 miniGBIC 1 Gbit/s (modello 21.13.1074)

The Secomp RJ45 miniGBIC 1 Gbps media converter (model 21.13.1074) is a compact transceiver designed to adapt a copper Ethernet link to a compatible miniGBIC slot. It enables gigabit transmission between RJ45-based network segments and devices equipped with small form-factor pluggable miniGBIC ports, providing a straightforward way to extend or integrate LAN infrastructure without changing cabling topology.

Advantages

This miniGBIC media converter offers plug-and-play installation in a space-saving form factor, supporting 1 Gbps full-duplex Ethernet to maintain standard gigabit performance. Its compact design reduces rack and module space usage and allows easy insertion into compatible switch or chassis slots. The device provides electrical-to-optical adaptation simplicity (when used with appropriate fiber modules) and reliable copper-to-miniGBIC interoperability for mixed-port network environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting RJ45 copper links to switches or devices with miniGBIC ports
• Adding a gigabit uplink in constrained rack or module space
• Integrating legacy copper equipment into a modern miniGBIC-based backbone
• Temporary or permanent media adaptation in LAN and data center patches

Key specifications

• Supported data rate: 1 Gbps (gigabit Ethernet)
• Interface: RJ45 copper to miniGBIC form-factor transceiver
• Media type: 1000BASE-T over twisted pair (copper) when using RJ45
• Duplex mode: Full-duplex operation supported
• Form factor: Small, hot-pluggable miniGBIC-sized module

How to use

Insert the miniGBIC module into a compatible miniGBIC slot on your switch or device until it clicks into place, ensuring the host port supports 1 Gbps RJ45 conversion. Connect a Category 5e or higher Ethernet cable to the RJ45 jack on the module and to the copper endpoint. Configure link speed and duplex on the connected devices if necessary; most modern equipment negotiates gigabit speed automatically. Verify link and activity LEDs on the host device to confirm a successful connection.

Recommendations

Use quality Cat5e or Cat6 cables for reliable gigabit performance and keep cable runs within recommended length limits for 1000BASE-T. Avoid inserting or removing the module while the host device is powered if the host manufacturer advises against hot-swapping. Ensure firmware and switch port settings are compatible with media converter operation and check link indicators after installation.
