FC5000 Gigabit Ethernet switch extension over multimode fibre
This application shows a pair of Gigabit Ethernet LAN switches connected over a multimode fibre using a pair of FC5000 units. This multimode fibre could be within a building (e.g. between two PBXs at either end of a large hotel), or across a campus (e.g. between two departmental buildings of a University).
FC5000 Gigabit Ethernet switch extension over singlemode fibre
This application shows a pair of Gigabit Ethernet LAN switches connected over a singlemode fibre using a pair of FC5000 units. This singlemode fibre could be between buildings (e.g. across a business park), or across a city (e.g. over a rented fibre).
The FC5000 is a switching media converter operating in store and forward mode. The FC5000 supports auto-negotiation, and auto MDI/MDIX cross-over switching on the copper interface.
To ensure reliable operation, the FC5000 supports Link State Forwarding, whereby a fault on the fibre will automatically force a link down on the copper port to indicate to the attached device that there is a link problem.
The FC5000 supports the transmission of Jumbo frames.
The FC5000 is provided with an SFP module with LC connector supporting either 1000Base-SX for 550 metres operation over multi-mode fibre, or 1000Base-LX for up to 10km over a single-mode fibre.
The FC5000 is ordered pre-configured with the required SFP variant, although customers can subsequently change their interface type. Please contact Metrodata for price and availability of additional or alternative SFP modules including long haul, 1550nm, bi-directional and CWDM.
The FC5000 is available in a choice of 100-250 VAC or -48 VDC integrated power supplies.
The FC5000 can easily be rackmounted in either a 1U two unit rackmount kit, a 6U eighteen unit rackmount kit.
The FC5000 is part of a range of fibre conversion products from Metrodata. The wider product range offers fibre conversion solutions ranging from 300 baud RS-232, via Nx64kbps rates, through 2Mbps and up to 155Mbps for electrical to fibre conversion; or 155Mbps, 622Mbps or Gigabit Ethernet for fibre mode or wavelength conversion.

Whilst the FC5000 product range uses industry standard user exchangeable SFPs, it is recommended that these are purchased from Metrodata to guarantee their specification and compatibilty with each other.
If you require another SFP please contact our sales team with your requirements.
