1000Base-T to 1000Base-LX/SX Smart Media Converter
GST-70x

For the feature of plug and play and powerful smart function, PLANET releases the new 1000Base-T to 1000Base-LX/ SX Smart Media Converter GST-70x series.
The GST-70x series Smart Media Converter provide Media conversion between 1000Base-T and 1000Base-LX/SX interfaces, such as multi-mode LC/ SC connectors (220m/ 550m), single-mode LC/ SC connector (10/ 20/ 40/ 50/ 70/ 120km) and single fiber connector (WDM, 15/ 60km). These connection options are able to for various applications.

The GST-70x series Smart Media Converter provide auto MDI/ MDI-X on their TP ports and use the DIP switch from the GST-70x to configure the available smart functions, such as the auto-negotiation/ force for fiber interface and Link Pass Through function (LLCF/ LLR). The LLCF sets default on the board and works with LLR in diagnosed network connections, the LLR function can also immediately alarm network administrators for the media link issue and provide efficient solutions to monitor the entire network.

The GST-70x series Smart Media Converter can allow two types of segments connecting easily with efficient and cost effective. These Smart Media converter can be use as a standalone when its power on by its DC adapter. Or use as a slide-in module to the PLANET new 19-inch Web Smart 16-Slots Media converter chassis (MC-1600MR/ MC-1600MR48). With this Web Smart Media converter chassis, the GST-70x are able to manage and monitor status through the local RS-232 console and remote web interface.

Application

Standalone and centralize management Media Converter installation:

Affording the current network grows and expanding, the PLANET GST-70x provide advanced Media conversion technology to fill this kind of demand. The GST-70x provide the diverse fiber connecting types of options to meet different network applications. It is very flexible for GST-70x to work as a standalone device or install into the central Web Smart Media converter chassis for centralized management. While installing the GST-70x into the Web Smart Media Converter chassis, it supports hot swappable to avoid network down time, the GST-70x is ideal solution for building a network solution of FTTH (Fiber to the Home) or FTTC (Fiber to the Curb) and FTTB (Fiber to the Building) for ISPs, campuses and enterprises.
