D-Link DMC-805G/E Media Converter

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

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 fiber optic connection. This allows you to expand your network by connecting longer distance, high-speed fiber optic cables between devices that are otherwise connected with short distance Ethernet cables, such as Cat. 5 twisted-pair cables. 

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.
