Product Overview
The OPTONE 10G Media Converter (OPT-1010S Series) is an advanced, high-performance network device designed to bridge standard 10GBase-T copper networks with ultra-fast 10G SFP+ fiber optic infrastructures. Featuring one 10GBase-T RJ-45 copper port and one 10G SFP+ optical slot, this converter delivers transparent, line-rate transport with ultra-low latency.
Engineered for high-bandwidth environments, the OPT-1010S supports ITU-T prescribed DWDM/CWDM wavelengths, jumbo frames, and built-in loopback diagnostics. Capable of extending 10G transmission distances up to 80km using compatible SFP+ transceivers, it is housed in a rugged metal enclosure and backed by a 3-year warranty, making it the ideal solution for data centers, cloud service providers, and enterprise backbone extensions.
Key Features & Benefits
Ultra-Low Delay & Transparent Transport: Delivers wire-speed, non-blocking data conversion with minimal propagation delay, ensuring pristine signal integrity for critical applications.
DWDM / CWDM Compatibility: Fully supports ITU-T prescribed DWDM and CWDM wavelengths, allowing massive multiplexing capacity over single-mode fiber links.
Jumbo Frame Support: Transparently handles oversized data packets to maximize network throughput and efficiency for high-performance computing (HPC).
Built-in Loopback Testing: Features a convenient loopback test function for rapid link verification, troubleshooting, and network maintenance.
Hot-Pluggable SFP+ Slot: Allows flexible deployment and easy upgrades using a wide range of 10G SFP+ optical modules without powering down the host unit.
Auto MDI/MDIX: Automatically detects and configures the RJ-45 copper port, eliminating the need for crossover cables.
Comprehensive LED Monitoring: Full-state front panel LEDs provide real-time status visibility for power, link activity, and network diagnostics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the maximum transmission distance of the OPT-1010S media converter?
The transmission distance depends entirely on the 10G SFP+ module you choose. Using standard multi-mode SFP+ (SR), it supports up to 300 meters, while single-mode modules can extend your network from 10km (LR) all the way up to 80km (ZR).
Q2: Does the OPT-1010S support DWDM/CWDM networks?
Yes! The OPT-1010S is engineered to support ITU-T prescribed DWDM and CWDM colored SFP+ transceivers, allowing network operators to multiplex multiple 10G channels over a single strand of fiber for high-capacity metropolitan or long-haul transport.
Q3: What type of cables should be used for the 10GBase-T RJ-45 port?
To achieve reliable 10Gbps speeds over standard copper cabling up to 100 meters, we recommend using high-quality Cat 6a or Cat 7 shielded twisted-pair (STP) cables to mitigate alien crosstalk.
