The miConverter S/GXT is an ultra-compact, portable Gigabit Ethernet media converter designed for demanding mobile and field applications where space, weight, and power consumption are critical. This device seamlessly converts Gigabit fiber optic signals to 10/100/1000BASE-T copper Ethernet, and vice-versa. Its small form factor, weighing less than 2.5 ounces (72 grams) and roughly the size of a house key, makes it ideal for integration into portable setups, such as fiber-to-the-laptop deployments and tactical military communications. The S/GXT's unique USB-powered design eliminates the need for external AC or DC power sources. By connecting to a laptop's USB port via a standard USB cable, the converter gains power, enabling high-speed fiber connectivity directly to the laptop's RJ-45 port using a standard Ethernet patch cable. This feature is particularly advantageous for on-the-go professionals and in environments lacking readily available power outlets.
