Product Features
Technical Overview
This media converter delivers robust signal conversion with precise technical specifications. It supports twisted pair copper cables and optical fiber, converting electrical signals to optical signals without data loss. The SC fiber port uses standard SC connectors for reliable multi-mode fiber connections.
The converter maintains Gigabit Ethernet performance across the entire link, supporting auto-negotiation and auto-MDI/MDIX on the copper port for easy installation. It requires no external management port, simplifying deployment in space-constrained internal installations.
This section brings together practical product details such as Total Number of Ports, Network (RJ-45), DVI, Media Type Supported, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
This media converter extends network reach and enhances infrastructure flexibility with several distinct advantages. It enables cost-effective fiber deployment by converting existing copper links to fiber, protecting investments in current network equipment.

Extends network segments up to 0.55 km (0.34 miles) over multi-mode fiber, far beyond copper cable limitations.
- Overcomes 100-meter copper distance restrictions
- Maintains signal integrity over longer runs
Media Conversion
Converts between twisted pair copper and optical fiber while maintaining full Gigabit Ethernet performance.
- Supports 10/100/1000Base-T copper standards
- Compatible with 1000Base-BX fiber standard
Installation Efficiency
Internal form factor requires minimal space and power, integrating directly into compatible chassis or enclosures.
- No external power adapter needed
- Simplifies cable management
Deployment / Use Cases
The CM-1000-M1SC05D serves critical roles in network infrastructure where copper-to-fiber conversion is required. It is particularly valuable in environments needing extended distance coverage or electrical isolation between network segments.
Common deployment scenarios include connecting copper-based edge switches to fiber backbone networks, extending network reach between buildings on a campus, and providing electrical isolation in industrial environments where copper cables might be susceptible to interference.
Building-to-Building Connectivity
Connect network equipment across separate buildings using existing fiber infrastructure while maintaining copper connections at each endpoint.
Network Segmentation
Isolate network segments electrically while maintaining data connectivity, useful in industrial settings or between different voltage zones.

FAQ
What types of connections does this media converter support?
This converter supports one RJ-45 copper port for twisted pair Ethernet cables and one SC port for multi-mode fiber optic cables. It converts signals between these two media types while maintaining Gigabit Ethernet performance across the connection.
What is the maximum distance this converter can support over fiber?
The converter supports distances up to 0.55 kilometers (0.34 miles) over multi-mode fiber optic cable. This significantly extends network reach compared to standard copper Ethernet cables, which are typically limited to 100 meters.
What wavelengths does this fiber converter use?
This media converter operates at both 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths on multi-mode fiber. These are standard wavelengths for multi-mode fiber optic communications, providing compatibility with common fiber infrastructure and equipment.
How is this media converter installed?
The converter features an internal form factor, meaning it's designed to be installed inside compatible network chassis, racks, or enclosures. This integrated approach saves space, simplifies cable management, and eliminates the need for external power adapters or separate mounting hardware.
What network speeds does this converter support?
The converter supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 1000 Mbps. On the copper side, it's compatible with 10/100/1000Base-T standards, while on the fiber side it supports 1000Base-BX, ensuring full Gigabit performance across both media types.
Does this media converter require separate management?
No, this converter does not include a separate management port. It operates as a transparent media conversion device, automatically handling signal conversion between copper and fiber without requiring configuration or management interface access.
