F2C Ecosystem

Fiber to Copper Solutions

Introducing the F2C splitter, an advanced fiber tap designed to enhance your data monitoring capabilities. The F2C creates precise duplicates of data streams coming from fiber optic cables for efficient monitoring of incoming and outgoing communications, allowing you to monitor, capture and analyze every data packet with unparalleled accuracy, making it an indispensable tool for environments with stringent regulatory requirements. Its innovative design includes a conversion circuit that transforms optical signals into electrical signals and back, reducing latency to as low as 150 ps, a marked improvement over traditional fiber taps. With F2C, you can ensure that your data integrity and compliance are maintained effortlessly.

Key Features:

  • Cutting-Edge Design: Includes an innovative conversion circuit that transforms optical signals into electrical signals and back, reducing tapping latency to as low as 150 ps.
  • Ultra-low Latency Connectivity: 3.9 ns per meter cable latency powered by low-Dk Samtec Eye Speed® technology.
  • Data Integrity & Compliance: Allows for seamless monitoring, capturing, and analysis of data packets, effortlessly maintaining data integrity and compliance.
  • Versatile Functionality: The F2C can also serve as a fiber-to-copper breakout, allowing signal replication to multiple connectors and devices.

The F2C can be purchased by itself or bundled with any variety of the following cables and accessories to fit your specific needs.

Upgrade your network and enhance your communication infrastructure with the F2C for a future-ready, high-performance solution.
