Network media converter DeLOCK 86472

The DeLOCK 86472 is a 10 Gigabit Ethernet media converter designed to interconnect different types of optical fiber links. It supports IEEE 802.3ae and 10GBASE-R, provides two SFP+ fiber ports and achieves data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s. Housed in a black metal chassis, the unit includes LED indicators for status and accepts AC input from 100 to 240 V at 50–60 Hz.

Advantages

The media converter enables conversion between multimode and single-mode fiber when used with appropriate SFP+ modules, allowing flexibility in mixed-fiber networks. Its SFP+ slots accept a range of optional 10 Gbps SFP+ modules, and the compact metal housing offers durable protection while providing visual status feedback via LEDs. The wide AC input range makes it suitable for varied power environments.

Suitable for

• Extending or adapting fiber links between multimode and single-mode segments
• High-speed backbone connections at 10 Gbps
• Integration into data center or telecom fiber infrastructures
• Environments requiring compact, rack- or shelf-mounted media conversion

Key specifications

• Maximum data transfer rate: 10000 Mbit/s
• Standards: IEEE 802.3ae, 10GBASE-R
• Fiber ports quantity: 2 (SFP+)
• Fiber optic connector: SFP+
• Product colour: Black
• Input voltage: 100–240 V AC, 50–60 Hz, 0.4 A
• Dimensions: 95 × 110 × 26 mm (W × D × H)

How to use

Install compatible 10 Gbps SFP+ transceiver modules into the SFP+ slots according to the desired fiber type. Connect the corresponding fiber cables to the transceivers and apply AC power to the unit. Monitor the LED indicators to verify link and status. Configure any connected network devices as required for 10 Gbps operation; the media converter functions transparently at layer 1 to pass traffic between connected fiber segments.

Recommendations

Use Delock-certified SFP+ modules or other compatible 10 Gbps transceivers matched to your fiber type and distance. Ensure proper fiber type pairing (multimode to multimode or single-mode to single-mode via appropriate modules) or select media conversion modules when mixing fiber types. Provide adequate ventilation and avoid exposure to excessive heat or moisture.
