Product Features
Technical Overview
The converter operates at Gigabit speeds, supporting auto-negotiation for 10/100/1000Base-T on the copper side and 1000Base-LX on the fiber side. It achieves a maximum transmission distance of 2 kilometers over fiber, making it suitable for campus or building-to-building connections where copper limitations apply.
The SC duplex port ensures proper alignment for bidirectional fiber communication, while the RJ-45 port handles standard Ethernet cabling. The internal installation requires minimal power and integrates directly into compatible networking equipment or enclosures.

FAQ
What does this media converter do?
The Perle C-1110-M2SC2 converts Gigabit Ethernet signals from a copper RJ-45 port to fiber optic signals through an SC duplex port. It enables network extension over longer distances up to 2 km using fiber cable, overcoming the 100-meter limitation of standard copper Ethernet.
What types of fiber cables are compatible?
This converter supports multimode fiber optic cables with core/cladding specifications of 50/125 µm or 62.5/125 µm. These are common multimode standards used for short to medium-distance fiber runs in enterprise and campus networks.
How is this converter installed?
The converter has an internal form factor, meaning it is designed to be installed inside compatible networking equipment, racks, or enclosures. It integrates directly without requiring external power supplies, making setup straightforward and minimizing cable clutter.
What is the maximum data transfer rate?
It supports Gigabit speeds, specifically 10/100/1000Base-T on the copper side and 1000Base-LX on the fiber side. This ensures full Gigabit throughput of up to 1000 Mbps for both Ethernet and fiber connections, suitable for high-bandwidth applications.
