Choosing the fiber link
The documented connection example uses a Z6 sender. Select the optical modules for the required route length and verify compatibility at both ends. The optional 20 km module should be specified when ordering if the link requires it.
H16F uses RJ45 Ethernet ports; check the connector requirements if comparing it with the H16F-N. Green indicators show Ethernet and fiber working status, while the separate power switch controls the unit.

Frequently asked questions
How does H16F connect to an LED control system?
The specification shows H16F used with a Colorlight Z6 sender. Its interfaces carry gigabit Ethernet and fiber signals; confirm the optical modules and port mapping for your sender and receiving system.
What is the difference between H16F and H16F-N connections?
The H16F specification lists 16 RJ45 gigabit ports. The H16F-N listing specifies Neutrik gigabit ports. Check connector requirements and the exact model when ordering a replacement.
Is the H16F fiber distance 1 km or 20 km?
Both appear as module options: 1 km is listed, while 20 km is optional. The installed optical module determines the applicable distance rating.
Does H16F use single-mode or multimode fiber?
The V1.0 document specifies single-mode twin-core fiber with a full-duplex LC connector. Do not substitute a different optical mode without checking the modules and equipment.
How fast are the Ethernet and fiber interfaces?
Each of the 16 RJ45 ports is gigabit Ethernet. The two fiber interfaces are listed at 10 Gb/s each, with a 20 Gb/s data-link figure for the device.
