Description
The Bosch fiber optic Media Converter series are designed to transmit 10/100
Mbps Ethernet signals over fiber optic cable using Small Form-factor Pluggable
(SFP) modules. These fiber optic media converter devices can be used to transmit
Ethernet data well beyond the 100 m limit of copper-based media and provides a
secure, EMI/RFI free transmission path.
The media converter units are designed to accept 10/100 Mbps SFP modules. The
SFP modules are ordered separately to meet user requirements for mode type,
distance and type of optical connector. Available offerings include multi-mode
fiber (MMF) or single-mode fiber (SMF) models with a single SC connector or
dual-fiber with an LC connector.
System overview
VG4-SFPSCKT
The VG4-SFPSCKT is a unique media converter module for use with VG4 series
AutoDomes incorporating the Ethernet (TCP/IP) Communications Module, as well as
with MIC Series 550, 550IR, and 612 cameras. This media converter module is
designed to accept any of the 10/100 Mbps SFP modules described below.
The media converter module along with the SFP module is user installed directly
into the power supply box of the AutoDome camera or of the MIC camera to provide
an integrated fiber optic solution. Refer to the Installation Guide that
accompanies the VG4-SFPSCKT for detailed installation instructions.
CNFE2MC/IN
The CNFE2MC/IN is a media converter device designed to transmit and receive
10/100 Mbps Ethernet data over optical fiber using SFP modules. This head-end
device is supplied in an enclosure that can be surface mounted or rack mounted
using the optional C1-IN rack mount card cage. The unit does not require infield
adjustments, and provides automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover.
SFP Modules
The selection of Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) modules provides the fast
Ethernet optical interface when using the VG4-SFPSCKT or the CNFE2MC/IN media
converters. These interchangeable SFP module are available for use with MMF or
SMF optical fiber. The optical fiber SFP modules are available as one and two
fiber versions. They also are available with LC or SC optical connectors.
The VG4-SFPSCKT and CNFE2MC/IN media converters accept the following SFP
modules:
Module | Fiber Type | Optical Interface |
SFP-2 | MMF | Duplex LC |
SFP-3 | SMF | Duplex LC |
SFP-25 | MMF | Single SC |
SFP26 | MMF | Single SC |
The SFP-25/SFP-26 modules are counterparts; if you use one in the VG4-SFPSCKT
module, then you must use the other in the CNFE2MC/IN head-end unit. Refer to
the chart below for the acceptable combinations. Compatibility Chart

C1-IN Rack Mount Card Cage
The C1-IN rack mount card cage is designed to hold a maximum of 14 CNFE2MC/IN
modules. The C1-IN card cage utilizes an integral, yet field replaceable
universal power supply suitable for 120 VAC to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz operation.
The C1-IN unit includes automatic self-resetting current overload protection, so
a fault in any one module will not cause the entire card cage to shut down.
C1-BP Closure Panel
The C1-BP is a closure panel for the C1-IN rack mount card cage, providing
coverage for one rack slot.
