Multimode Fiber Optic Converter Models

Multimode fiber optic converters are available in a variety of models that convert multimode to single-mode fiber (and vice versa), supporting data rates from 30 bps to 10 Gbps and extending network distances up to 120 km.

Popular Multimode Fiber Optic Converter Models
