Product Features
Technical Overview
The S-110-S1SC20D operates as a transparent media converter, converting electrical signals from twisted-pair copper to optical signals for fiber transmission. It supports both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX Ethernet standards on the copper side and 100Base-BX on the fiber side, ensuring compatibility with existing network equipment.
The converter uses SC connectors for the fiber interface, which are widely used in single-mode fiber installations. It requires external power via the included US power cord and operates within standard environmental conditions for reliable performance in various settings.
Key Product Advantages
This media converter extends network segments beyond the 100-meter limit of copper cabling, enabling cost-effective fiber connectivity for distance-critical applications. Its plug-and-play design requires no configuration, simplifying deployment and reducing setup time.
Distance Extension
Supports fiber runs up to 20 km, ideal for connecting buildings or remote network nodes.
- Eliminates copper distance limitations
- Reduces signal degradation over long runs
Mounting Flexibility
Offers rack, wall, rail, or external placement options to fit various installation environments.
- Saves space in crowded racks
- Adapts to industrial or office layouts
Deployment / Use Cases
The S-110-S1SC20D is commonly used to integrate fiber backbones into existing copper-based networks, such as in campus environments, manufacturing facilities, or surveillance systems where long-distance connectivity is required.
Typical applications include extending network connections between buildings, linking remote switches or routers over fiber, and upgrading network infrastructure to support future fiber expansion without replacing core copper equipment.
Building-to-Building Links
Connect separate facilities over fiber for secure, high-bandwidth data transfer without interference from electrical noise.
Industrial Networking
Deploy in harsh environments where fiber's immunity to EMI and longer distances improve network reliability.
Physical Profile
The converter has a compact footprint measuring 1.02 inches in height, 3.15 inches in width, and 4.72 inches in depth, with a lightweight design of approximately 300 grams. Its external enclosure supports multiple mounting methods, including rack ears for standard 19-inch racks, wall-mounting brackets, rail clips for DIN rails, or standalone placement on a flat surface.
