Product overview
The Black Box compact fast Ethernet media converter (100Base-TX to 100Base-FX multimode SC, 1310nm, 2km) is supplied under part number LHC002A-R4. Direct-attach copper is cheaper and lower latency than optics but is limited by length and by what each switch will accept. Tell us the two endpoints and we will say which of the two is right for the run.
Ask for the datasheet and firmware notes with the quote; we would rather you check our claim than take it.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
Quoted and supplied against LHC002A-R4 specifically, so what arrives is what your build sheet asks for.

Questions buyers ask about this part
- Is LHC002A-R4 genuine and is the warranty intact?
- Yes. It ships new in Black Box packaging, which is what keeps the warranty and the firmware entitlement valid. Anything we cannot supply that way we tell you about before you order.
- Will LHC002A-R4 work in my server?
- Tell us the switch at both ends of the link. Optics are frequently vendor-coded, so a module that is electrically correct can still refuse to come up; we confirm the coding for both ends before it ships.
- Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
- Yes. Purchase orders are accepted from qualified organisations, net terms are available on approval, and tiered pricing applies at quantity. Tell us how many you need.

Specifying a system, not just the part?
Optics and cabling are part of the fabric spec on a cluster build — both ends and the switch have to agree.
