FAQ
What type of conversion does this media converter perform?
This media converter converts Gigabit Ethernet signals between RJ-45 copper connections and SC fiber optic connections. It supports both 1000Base-T standard for copper cabling and 1000Base-BX standard for single-strand bidirectional fiber optic transmission, enabling seamless integration of different network media types within your infrastructure.
What is the maximum distance supported by this converter?
The Perle C-1000-S1SC80D supports transmission distances up to 80 kilometers when using fiber optic cabling. This extended reach capability allows network expansion far beyond the limitations of standard copper Ethernet cabling, making it suitable for connecting remote locations, spanning large campuses, or implementing long-distance network links in industrial environments.
What does 'internal form factor' mean for this device?
The internal form factor indicates that this media converter is designed for installation inside standard networking equipment racks, enclosures, or chassis rather than as a standalone external unit. This design approach saves space, simplifies cable management, and provides a more integrated appearance within your network infrastructure while maintaining full conversion functionality.
What types of connectors does this media converter use?
This converter features one RJ-45 connector for copper Ethernet connections and one SC connector for fiber optic connections. The RJ-45 port supports standard twisted-pair cabling, while the SC port accommodates single-mode fiber optic cables with SC connectors, providing a straightforward interface for connecting different network media types.
