Overview
Extend and protect your networked security and monitoring deployments with the Lantronix M/E-TX-FX-01(SFP) mini media converter. This compact media converter delivers plug-and-play conversion between 100Base-TX copper and 100Base-FX fiber using a single SFP slot, making it easy to integrate fiber into CCTV, access control and remote monitoring links. Operating at Layer 1, the converter provides transparent, low-latency line-speed transmission—critical for video surveillance and security systems where delay or packet inspection can degrade performance. Its small 1.8" x 3.3" profile and dual AC/DC (12V) power support simplify placement in cramped racks, camera junction boxes or distributed network points. The unit supports standard Fast Ethernet speeds and can extend link distance well beyond twisted-pair limits when paired with the appropriate SFP module (max tested distance 328 ft with recommended optics). Environmentally compliant (RoHS, REACH, WEEE) and TAA-compliant, this Lantronix media converter is ideal for integrators and IT managers deploying reliable fiber runs for security, surveillance, or general networking. Add this mini converter to your next installation to reduce latency and increase reach—order or specify it for your next camera or monitoring rollout.
