Product Features
Technical Overview
This media converter features one RJ-45 port for copper connectivity and one SC port for fiber optic connections. It operates on Fast Ethernet technology with a maximum data transfer rate of 100 Mbit/s, supporting both 100Base-TX over twisted pair and 100Base-FX over fiber.
The fiber interface uses single-mode fiber with a 1310 nm wavelength, capable of supporting distances up to 20 kilometers. This makes it suitable for connecting network segments across buildings or campuses where copper cabling would be impractical or insufficient.
This section brings together practical product details such as Total Number of Ports, Network (RJ-45), Number of Network (RJ-45) Ports, Media Type Supported, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.

Deployment / Use Cases
This media converter is ideal for extending network connections between buildings on a campus, where fiber optic cabling is necessary to overcome distance limitations. It effectively bridges the gap between copper-based office networks and fiber backbone infrastructure.
In industrial environments, the DIN rail mounting capability allows integration into control panels and equipment racks. The converter can connect office networks to remote manufacturing equipment or surveillance systems located at significant distances from the main network hub.
Campus Network Extension
Connect buildings across a campus using fiber optic cabling while maintaining compatibility with existing copper network equipment.
Industrial Network Integration
Deploy in manufacturing facilities or industrial parks where equipment may be distributed across large areas requiring fiber connectivity.
