NovaStar CVT10-M
The CVT10-M converts a single 10G multimode fiber input into 10 Gigabit Ethernet outputs, enabling medium-distance transmission up to 300m. Featuring a compact 1U half-width design (254mm wide), it is perfect for installations where rack space is at a premium. Includes 2x 10G SFP Module-M pre-installed (multimode fiber).

CVT10: PRO vs Standard
This model uses Multimode fiber. For new installs, choose Single Mode — it offers longer distance and comparable pricing. Avoid Multimode unless reusing existing multimode fiber.
