Planet - GST-805A - 10/100/1000Base-T to Mini-GBIC Smart Gigabit Converter
Product Overview
Planet GST-805A is a 10/100/1000BASE-T to 1000BASE-X SFP smart media converter featuring DIP switch configurable fiber auto-negotiation/force mode and LFP (Link Fault Pass-through with LLCF/LLR). Supports TS-1000/802.3ah OAM, 9K jumbo frames, and chassis management via MC-1610MR series (remote monitoring).
Key Configuration
• Copper port: 1 × 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ45 (auto-MDI/MDI-X)
• Fiber port: 1 × 1000BASE-X SFP slot (SFP module required, sold separately)
• DIP switches: Fiber auto-negotiation/manual, LFP enable/disable
• OAM: TS-1000, IEEE 802.3ah terminal support
• Jumbo frame: 9K bytes; power consumption: 3.1W max
• Dimensions: 81 × 94 × 26 mm
Key Features
LFP with LLCF/LLR enables link status propagation between copper and fiber for reliable fault detection. Supports DIP-switch selectable fiber auto or manual mode, TS-1000/802.3ah OAM for remote monitoring, and 9K jumbo frames for higher throughput efficiency. Compatible with the MC-1610MR series chassis and certified FCC Class A and CE Class A for industrial use.
Technical Context
The GST-805A provides Gigabit copper-to-fiber bridging with intelligent management features. It includes a manual fiber mode for forced speed and duplex settings to ensure compatibility with legacy fiber devices. The SFP interface supports both multi-mode fiber up to 550m and single-mode fiber links up to 120km, depending on transceiver type.
Installation Notes
Compact Gigabit fiber media converter (81 × 94 × 26 mm) with 0–50°C operating range and -40°C storage support for industrial use. Powered via 5V DC external adapter and supports Cat5 STP copper up to 100m with SFP-based fiber connectivity. Includes DIP switches for fiber auto/manual mode and LFP control, LED status indicators for power, copper, and fiber link/activity, and compatibility with MC-series management chassis for centralized monitoring.
