Product Features
Technical Overview
This media converter features a straightforward port configuration with one RJ-45 copper port and one SC duplex fiber port. The RJ-45 port supports standard 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet over Category 5e or better cabling, while the SC port delivers 1000Base-EX fiber connectivity.
The converter maintains full Gigabit throughput across both media types, ensuring no performance degradation during conversion. Built for continuous operation, the internal design integrates directly with host equipment power systems, eliminating the need for external power adapters.

Deployment / Use Cases
This media converter is particularly valuable in environments where existing copper infrastructure needs to connect to fiber optic backbone networks. The 40-kilometer reach makes it suitable for connecting buildings across campus, industrial facilities, or municipal networks.
Common deployment scenarios include integrating copper-based switches, routers, or servers into fiber optic network segments, extending network reach beyond copper limitations, and future-proofing network infrastructure by adding fiber connectivity to existing copper equipment.
Building-to-Building Connectivity
Connect network equipment between separate buildings using existing fiber infrastructure while maintaining copper connections at each endpoint.
Network Infrastructure Extension
Extend network reach beyond the 100-meter limitation of copper cabling by converting to fiber for long-distance runs.
Physical Profile
Designed as an internal component, the CM-1110-S2SC40 integrates directly into compatible host equipment. The compact design and lightweight construction (approximately 150 grams) minimize space requirements while providing robust media conversion capabilities. The internal installation approach eliminates external enclosures and simplifies overall system design.

FAQ
What types of network connections does this media converter support?
The Perle CM-1110-S2SC40 supports 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet on the copper side and 1000Base-EX on the fiber side. This means it can connect standard Gigabit Ethernet equipment using Category 5e or better copper cabling to single-mode fiber optic infrastructure operating at 1000Base-EX standards.
What is the maximum distance this converter can support over fiber?
This media converter supports fiber optic connections up to 40 kilometers when using compatible 9/125 µm single-mode fiber. This extended reach makes it suitable for connecting network equipment across campus environments, between buildings, or in other scenarios where copper distance limitations would be exceeded.
How is this media converter powered and installed?
The CM-1110-S2SC40 features an internal form factor, meaning it installs directly into compatible host equipment and draws power from that equipment's internal power supply. This eliminates the need for external power adapters and simplifies installation by reducing external components and cabling.
What type of fiber optic connectors does this converter use?
This converter uses SC duplex connectors for the fiber optic interface. The SC connector type is widely used in single-mode fiber applications and provides reliable connections with good insertion loss characteristics. The duplex configuration supports separate transmit and receive fibers for full-duplex operation.
