LevelOne GVT-0500 Conversor de Media de Rede 10000 Mbit/s Preto

The LevelOne GVT-0500 is a high-performance 10 Gigabit network media converter that converts optical signals to electrical signals when used with compatible SFP+ modules. It supports optical signal equalization, clock extraction and optical regeneration, and employs WDM (DWDM/CWDM) technology to transmit data over a single fiber across long distances. Housed in a compact metal case and equipped with SFP fiber connectors and LED status indicators, the GVT-0500 is designed to expand bandwidth on existing network infrastructure while keeping power consumption low and providing a long MTBF.

Advantages

The GVT-0500 provides 10 Gigabit throughput with backward compatibility to common Ethernet speeds and supports various IEEE 802.3 standards. Its WDM capability enables single-fiber long-distance transmission, while optical amplification and regeneration features help maintain signal integrity. The metal housing and LED indicators simplify installation and monitoring, and the device offers low power consumption (1.2 W) with a high MTBF (50,000 hours).

Suitable for

• Extending network bandwidth on existing fiber infrastructure
• Connecting 10 Gigabit network segments using SFP+ optical modules
• Long-distance single-fiber links using WDM (DWDM/CWDM) technology
• Integration into data center uplinks or telecom aggregation points

How to use

Install a compatible LevelOne SFP+ optical module into the SFP slot, connect the optical fiber and the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port as required, and power the unit. Verify link and activity LEDs to confirm proper operation. Configure connected network devices according to your network topology; the converter functions transparently at the physical layer and does not require protocol conversion. Choose SFP+ modules that match the desired wavelength and distance when using WDM (DWDM/CWDM) configurations.

Recommendations

Use the GVT-0500 with manufacturer-recommended SFP+ modules and proper single-mode or multi-mode fiber for the selected WDM setup. For reliable long-distance links, verify module specifications (wavelength, reach) and ensure proper fiber attenuation and connector cleanliness during installation.
