About This Part
The FAST FCG14B-3 is a specialized networking component for optical-to-electrical signal conversion and network extension. Operating over single-mode, single-fiber infrastructure, it supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds for data transmission up to 3 kilometers. Its Bi-Directional (BiDi) capability uses distinct transmit (1310nm) and receive (1550nm) wavelengths over a single fiber strand, optimizing fiber utilization. The "1 optical 4 electrical" configuration positions it as a media converter or compact switch, providing a single fiber uplink to four electrical Ethernet ports for flexible network expansion. This part is ideally suited for various telecom and data centre applications requiring robust and space-efficient network connectivity. Typical uses include extending Ethernet networks across campus environments, connecting remote offices, or providing last-mile fiber connectivity. In data centres, the FCG14B-3 can bridge network segments, consolidate fiber uplinks for specific racks or zones, or integrate legacy copper-based equipment into a modern fiber optic backbone, minimizing fiber cabling. Its reliability makes it suitable for critical infrastructure deployments. At Revo Distribution Limited, we understand the critical need for reliable and cost-effective networking solutions. The FAST FCG14B-3, as part of our curated inventory of used and refurbished telecom and data centre equipment, offers an excellent balance of performance and value. By providing such high-quality, pre-owned components, we enable our B2B clients to maintain, upgrade, and expand their network infrastructure efficiently without compromising on functionality or budget.
