The Omada MC420L bridges a Multi-Gigabit copper port to a 10G SFP+ slot, so you can move a 10G link onto fiber without replacing the switch. The RJ45 port runs at 1G, 2.5G, 5G or 10G, so it fits equipment of different speeds.

Built for 10G fiber extensions

The SFP+ slot takes multi-mode or single-mode SFP+ modules and the distance depends on the module you choose. On the copper side, 10GBASE-T needs Cat 6 up to 55 m or shielded Cat 6 or better up to 100 m; 1G, 2.5G and 5G reach 100 m on Cat 5e or better. It can sit on a shelf or slide into an MC1400 chassis. The SFP+ module is not included.

Key features

  • Open SFP+ slot: choose multi-mode or single-mode 10G optics
  • 1G/2.5G/5G/10G RJ45 port with auto MDI/MDIX
  • Distance set by the module you install
  • PWR and Link/Act LEDs for field checks
  • Fits the MC1400 chassis for rack-mounted converters

System requirements

A 10G SFP+ module (not included) with matching optics at the far end, and a Multi-Gigabit Ethernet device on the copper side. Power adapter and installation guide are in the box.

FAQs

Does the MC420L include an SFP+ module?
No. The package is the converter, power adapter and installation guide. Add the SFP+ module that suits your fiber.
What speeds does the RJ45 port run?
1G, 2.5G, 5G and 10G with auto-negotiation.
What cable do I need for 10G copper?
Cat 6 up to 55 m, or shielded Cat 6 or better up to 100 m. Lower speeds reach 100 m on Cat 5e or better.
Can it go in a rack?
Yes. It fits the MC1400 14-slot chassis, or runs standalone on its power adapter.
