## Long description

The MANHATTAN USB-A to SFP Fibre Optic Converter provides a SuperSpeed USB 3.2 Gen1 host interface and an open SFP slot to connect MSA-compliant fiber transceivers for Gigabit (1000 Mbps) optical Ethernet. Designed for wired network access, diagnostics and media conversion, this compact, bus-powered adapter enables computers with USB-A ports to use fibre links for high-speed, interference-resistant network connectivity. Colour: black. Three-year warranty.
Advantages
This converter delivers optical Gigabit performance over SFP transceivers while using a standard USB-A connection on the host, enabling fast data transfer without requiring an internal network card. Fibre connectivity is immune to electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference and reduces susceptibility to certain types of eavesdropping compared with copper cabling. The open SFP slot supports a range of MSA-compliant modules so you can choose wavelength, reach and connector type according to your network needs. Its compact, bus-powered design offers portability for field diagnostics and troubleshooting, and broad OS compatibility simplifies deployment across Windows, macOS, Linux and ChromeOS systems.
Suitable for
 Connecting notebooks or PCs to fibre-optic networks for high-speed access
 Field testing, monitoring and troubleshooting of fibre links
 Converting between USB host ports and SFP-based optical Ethernet
 Temporary or portable installations where internal NICs are unavailable
Key specifications
 Host interface: USB 3.2 Gen1 (SuperSpeed) over USB-A, up to 5 Gbps signaling
 Network interface: Open SFP slot supporting Gigabit optical transceivers
 Supported data rate: Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps) over fiber when paired with appropriate SFP module
 Power: Bus-powered from host USB-A port (no external adapter required)
 Physical: Compact portable enclosure, colour black
 Compatibility: Works with common desktop and laptop operating systems including Windows, macOS, Linux and ChromeOS
 Use case: Media conversion, diagnostics, and temporary fiber connectivity
How to use
Install an appropriate MSA-compliant SFP optical transceiver into the open SFP slot, ensuring the module type and connector match the target network. Plug the converter into an available USB-A port on the host computer; the device is bus-powered and requires no external power supply. Configure network settings on the host operating system as needed—most modern OSes will detect the adapter and install drivers automatically or prompt for driver installation. Use standard network tools to verify link status, speed and connectivity through the installed SFP module.
Usage recommendations
Choose SFP transceivers rated for the required distance and wavelength (SX for short-range multimode, LX for long-range single-mode, etc.) and use compatible fiber patch cords and connectors. Avoid excessive bending or tension on fiber cables, and confirm host USB port provides adequate power and USB 3.0 bandwidth for optimal performance.
