Omnitron Systems Technology8589N-1 - iConverter XGT+ 10G RJ-45 to 10G Fiber XFP Plug-in Module

The iConverter XGT Plus is a 10 Gigabit Ethernet media converter with one 10GBASE-T RJ-45 port and one pluggable transceiver port that provides copper-to-fiber and copper-to-copper media conversion. Copper-to-fiber conversion is achieved with XFP or SFP+ fiber transceivers. Copper-to-copper conversion is achieved with a CX4 XFP transceiver.

The iConverter XGT Plus provides a variety of 10G data center connectivity solutions including resolving interface disparities between equipment with 10GBASE-T RJ-45 ports and existing rack servers or switches with fiber optic or CX4 ports. Architecture changes such as migrating from Top of Rack to End of Row can present cabling challenges when extending network distances from racks of servers. The XGT Plus converts short-reach cabling to multimode fiber single-mode fiber or CAT-6A cabling (up to 100 meters) to extend distances to servers switches and patch panels.

For CAT-6A cabling links less than 30 meters the XGT Plus supports 10GBASE-T Short Reach mode. In this mode the device conserves energy by reducing power and cooling requirements.
