- Easy Fiber to Fiber network extension to remote locations
- Provide wavelength conversion for CWDM and DWDM transponder applications
- Protocol-transparency support for all network protocols
- Rate-transparency support for SFP transceivers with data rates up to 4.25 Gbps
- Reliable operation with advanced features like Smart Link Pass-Through and Fiber Fault Alert
- Operates in -40F to +167F (-40C to +75C) extended temperature environments
Perle's feature rich SFP to SFP industrial protocol and rate-transparent media converters enable network administrators to incorporate multiple fiber types and wavelengths in, or between, networks through fiber to fiber mode conversion in -40F to +167F operating environments. Using this technology will result in significant cost savings when compared to replacing an optical blade on network equipment. Easily extend a network to remote locations by converting:
- Multimode to Multimode
- Multimode to Single Mode
- Single Mode to Single Mode
- Dual to single fiber ( Duplex to Simplex BiDi )
SFP to SFP Conversion
The S-4GPT-DSFP-XT Industrial Fiber Mode Converter comes with two empty SFP slots. This allows for flexible network configurations using SFP fiber transceivers supplied by Perle,Cisco or other manufacturers of MSA compliant SFPs. Adapting to different fiber types, distances and wavelengths is made simple by mixing and matching SFP’s as needed for maximum flexibility across a variety of topologies and network architectures. The hot-swappable nature of SFPs allow for easy configuration and future upgrades as network demands evolve by simply upgrading a single SFP instead of replacing the entire fiber mode converter.
Fully designed to operate in extreme temperatures
There are others products on the market claiming to operate at -40F to +175F but, they use “commercial-grade” parts that have not been qualified by the manufacturer (OEM) to operate at the claimed temperature ranges. When “commercial-grade” parts are exposed to extremely high or low temperatures, product failures are inevitable. For example, integrated circuits on the PCB overheat causing premature failure of the product. Under-rated connectors do not allow for proper contact between the device and the cables. These failures eventually stop all data communications in these high and low temperature environments.
Perle understands the critical nature of the traffic management, oil and gas pipelines, weather tracking, industrial and outdoor applications where customers are deploying this technology. Often, they are connecting security cameras, wireless access points, alarms, traffic controllers, sensors or tracking devices in remote or difficult to access locations. Unreliable products made with standard components simply won’t work. This is why all Perle Industrial Temperature Media Converters only use components that are fully qualified and rated to operate in -40F to +175F.
Convert different wavelengths ( WDM Transponders )
SFP transceivers enable the S-4GPT-DSFP-XT Industrial Fiber Mode Converter to operate as a Wave Division Multiplexing (WDM) transponder. Also referred to as Bi-Directional ( BiDi ) or Simplex, WDM Transponders help network administrators take advantage of the cost savings in both material and labour associated with Single Strand Fiber. WDM uses separate transmit and receive frequencies to communicate on a single fiber strand. WDM technology relies on the fact that optical fibers can carry many wavelengths of light simultaneously without interaction between each wavelength. Thus, a single fiber can carry many separate wavelength signals or channels simultaneously. WDM systems are divided into different wavelength patterns, conventional/coarse (CWDM) and dense (DWDM).
S-4GPT-DSFP-XT Industrial Fiber Mode Converter Features
Network Administrators can “see-everything” with Perle’s advanced features such as Smart Link Pass-Through and Fiber Fault Alert. This allows for more efficient troubleshooting and less on-site maintenance. These cost and time saving features, along with a lifetime warranty and free worldwide technical support, make the S-4GPT-DSFP-XT Industrial Fiber Mode Converter the smart choice for IT professionals.
Protocol Transparency | Transparent to all protocols ( including but not limited to )
|
Rate Transparency | Supports SFP data rates up to 4.25Gbps. |
Smart Link Pass-Through | Smart Link Pass-Through when enabled ensures that the link state on a fiber connection is directly reflected through the media converter to the other connection. If link is lost on one of the connections, then the other link will be brought down by the media converter. This feature applies when both SFP slots are occupied. If set in Standard Mode, the link is kept active. The unit will transmit a 25Mhz keep-alive signal to artificially keep the link up. |
Fiber Fault Alert | If the media converter module detects a loss of fiber, it will immediately notify the fiber link partner that an error condition exists. |
Power Strain Relief strap | A strain relief strap is provided to ensure a solid and secure power connection to the media converter. Ideal for areas that may be exposed to any vibration. |

Indicators | |
Power | This green LED is turned on when power is applied to the media converter. This LED is off when there is no power supplied. A Blinking LED will indicate that a hardware error has been detected. |
LK1 | LED is ON when a signal is detected on LK1. LED is OFF when there is no signal. |
LK2 | LED is ON when a signal is detected on LK2. LED is OFF when there is no signal. |
Switches - accessible through a side opening in the chassis | |
Link Mode | Smart Link Pass-Through when enabled ( Default ) ensures that the link state on a fiber connection is directly reflected through the media converter to the other connection. If link is lost on one of the connections, then the other link will be brought down by the media converter. This feature applies when both SFP slots are occupied. If set in Standard Mode, the link is kept active. The unit will transmit a 25Mhz keep-alive signal to artificially keep the link up. |
Fiber Fault Alert | If the media converter module detects a loss of fiber, it will immediately notify the fiber link partner that an error condition exists. Disabled ( Default ). The Media Converter will not monitor for fiber fault. |
Multi-speed SFP | When enabled, identifies that the SFPs inserted are MSA complaint SFPs that have a multi-rate capability. When disable ( Default ), no action is performed in this context. |
Rate Select | This enables rate selection when using dual-rate capable SFPs. If the “Multi-Speed SFP” select switch is in the “Disabled” position, this switch is ignored. High Speed - UP ( default ) Low Speed – DOWN |
