The DMC Series Media Converters, Management Module, and Chassis are a set of standalone
Plug-and-Play media converters that offer increased flexibility when expanding a new or
existing network. The DMC Series provides network administrators with a wide variety of
solutions to expand networks over a greater distance while maintaining compatibility with
existing network equipment.
Meanwhile, the DMC-1000 Media Converter Chassis provides a practical solution for
installing multiple media converters in one convenient chassis. This both saves space and
optimises cable placement. The chassis can also be used in conjunction with the DMC-1002
Management Module, which allows administrators to monitor and manage all media
converters installed in the DMC-1000 remotely.
Flexible Media Conversion
Media converters convert signals that are transmitted from one type of media to another so
that they can be transmitted over a different type of media. This series of media converters
converts 10/100/1000 Mbps copper Ethernet to a 100/1000 Mbps fibre optic connection. This
allows you to expand your network by connecting longer distance, high-speed fibre optic
cables between devices that are otherwise connected with short distance Ethernet cables,
such as Cat. 5 twisted-pair cables.
Dedicated Storage Solution
The DMC Series product lineup includes a wide range of independent media converters as
well as the DMC-1000 Media Converter Chassis, capable of housing up to 16 media converters.
You can start with a single media converter, equipped with its own housing and AC power
supply. As network requirements grow, you can mount the DMC-1000 in your equipment
rack and conveniently install all your media converters into the chassis. The housing of each
media converter can be easily removed, allowing it to be installed into the chassis. The installed
converter module is then powered by the chassis’ power supply.
