INTRODUCTION
The OLSON TECHNOLOGY, INC. Model OTEN-4P-01 EtherNodePlus 4-Port Media Converter
supports two 10/100/1000Mb/s UTP ports and two 1000Mb/s SFP sockets to convert between
1000Base-T, 1000Base-SX, 1000Base-LX, etc. This allows network operators to convert signals
between an electrical Ethernet 10/100/1000Mb/s UTP interface and an optical interface. The tradi-
tional 10/100/1000Mb/s gigabit Ethernet signal can be extended to distances of 80+km through an
optical fiber.
The OTEN-4P-01 incorporates the latest gigabit IC technology. Indicator LED’s on the front panel
allow the unit’s status to be fully monitored, simplifying installation and maintaining network
performance.
