## Long description

The StarTech.com USB-C to Fiber Optic Converter (US1GC30SFP) converts a USB 3.0 Type-C host port into a Gigabit (1000 Mbps) fiber-optic network interface. Compact and USB powered, the converter provides a portable solution for laptops, tablets and systems without expansion slots, enabling reliable wired connectivity over fiber for environments that require secure or interference-free network links.
Advantages
The adapter features an open SFP slot so you can install the SFP transceiver module that matches your required wavelength, distance and connector type (SFP module sold separately). Fiber connectivity reduces susceptibility to electronic interference compared with copper RJ45 links and supports fiber-to-the-desk deployments to improve network security for sensitive data. The device is plug-and-play with certified drivers for Windows, macOS and Linux and draws power directly from the USB-C port, making it easy to carry and deploy.
Suitable for
Connecting laptops or tablets to a Gigabit fiber network
Secure fiber-to-the-desk (FTTD) deployments to minimise electromagnetic interference
Temporary or portable fiber connections where no expansion slots are available
Environments requiring selection of specific SFP transceivers for distance or wavelength
