D-Link DMC-805G – 1000BASE-T to SFP Gigabit Media Converter with User-Selectable Fiber Transceivers, Link Pass Through & Chassis Support
Overview:
• The D-Link DMC-805G is a Gigabit Media Converter designed to convert 1000BASE-T Gigabit twisted-pair signals into 1000BASE-SX/LX Gigabit fiber signals.
• It includes 1 RJ45 Gigabit copper port and 1 SFP slot, allowing users to select the suitable fiber transceiver according to the required fiber type and distance.
• The converter supports Auto-Negotiation of duplex mode on the twisted-pair port and Auto MDI/MDIX, making installation easier and reducing cabling issues.
• It supports full wire-speed forwarding, Link Pass Through, and front panel status LEDs for clear monitoring of link and activity status.
• The DMC-805G can be used as a standalone media converter or installed inside a compatible chassis, where it supports hot-swappable operation.

Connect Gates Recommendation:
• Connect Gates recommends the D-Link DMC-805G for projects that need flexible Gigabit copper to fiber conversion using an SFP module.
• It is suitable when the project requires different fiber distances or fiber types, because the SFP slot allows selecting the appropriate transceiver.
• The Gigabit speed, SFP flexibility, Link Pass Through, Auto MDI/MDIX, and chassis support make it practical for professional network backbone and CCTV fiber installations.
• For proper installation, Connect Gates recommends checking the required SFP module, fiber type, fiber distance, connector type, chassis requirement, and power location before deployment.
