Media Converters

If you need a hardened mil-spec media converter or a simple standalone unit Global Access has the unit you are looking for. We market brands like Signamax, TP-Link, TC Com and Transition Networks just to name a few. Fiber media converters, also known as fiber transceivers or Ethernet media converters are simple networking devices that allow it to be possible to connect two different media types like twisted pair like Coax, Cat 5 or Cat 6 cable with fiber optic cabling. They are important in interconnecting fiber optic cabling-based systems with existing or new copper-based, structured cabling solutions.

GAU, also carries multiple lines of DWDM and CWDM devices from TC Com, TP-Link and several other manufacturers. DWDM is the short form of Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing. DWDM is an important technology in nowadays fiber optic network. DWDM and CWDM both use WDM technology to arrange several fiber optic lights to transmit simultaneously via a similar single fiber optic cable, but DWDM carry more fiber channel compared with CWDM (Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing). DWDM is frequently used on fiber optic backbones and long distance data transmission and DWDM system has higher demand of fiber amplifiers.
