Product Features
Technical Overview
Technically, the converter operates at full Gigabit speeds, providing up to 1000 Mbps data transfer rates. The 1000Base-BX technology utilizes single-strand fiber with bidirectional communication, reducing fiber count and infrastructure costs while supporting a maximum reach of 10 kilometers.
The device features a total of two ports: one RJ-45 port for copper connectivity and one SC fiber port for optical linkage. It includes built-in auto-MDI/MDIX on the copper port, eliminating the need for crossover cables and simplifying installation.
Key Product Advantages
This media converter extends network segments efficiently by leveraging fiber's immunity to electromagnetic interference and its capability for long-distance runs. The rack and rail mounting options provide flexible installation in standard 19-inch racks or on DIN rails, saving space in crowded network closets or industrial control panels.
Distance Extension
Enables reliable Gigabit connectivity up to 10 km, far beyond the limitations of copper cabling, ideal for connecting buildings or remote equipment.
- Eliminates signal degradation over long runs
- Suitable for outdoor or electrically noisy environments
Deployment Flexibility
Dual mounting capabilities allow installation in both IT rack environments and industrial settings, adapting to diverse infrastructure needs.
- Fits standard 19-inch racks
- Secures to DIN rails for control panels
Deployment / Use Cases
Deploy the S-1110-S1SC10U to connect copper-based network equipment to fiber backbones in scenarios where distance, security, or environmental factors require optical media. Common applications include linking switches in separate buildings, extending networks to remote surveillance cameras, or integrating industrial devices in manufacturing plants.
In educational campuses or corporate parks, it facilitates connectivity between distributed facilities without sacrificing speed. For industrial automation, it ensures stable communication between control rooms and field devices across large plants, immune to electrical noise common in such environments.
Physical Profile
The converter has a slim, 1U-height design measuring 1" high, 4.70" wide, and 3.10" deep, optimized for high-density rack installations. Its lightweight build at 299.4 grams ensures easy handling, while the robust metal casing provides durability for continuous operation. The compact footprint minimizes space usage in racks or on rails, making it suitable for both centralized data centers and distributed edge locations.

FAQ
What does this media converter actually convert?
The Perle S-1110-S1SC10U converts signals between a standard RJ-45 Ethernet port (using copper cabling) and a 1000Base-BX SC fiber optic port. This allows you to connect copper-based network devices, like switches or computers, to fiber optic network segments for extended distance runs.
What is the maximum distance supported by this converter?
This converter supports a maximum distance of 10 kilometers (approximately 6.2 miles) when using compatible single-mode fiber optic cabling with the 1000Base-BX interface. This far exceeds the 100-meter limit of standard copper Ethernet, making it suitable for connecting buildings or remote equipment.
How is this converter powered and installed?
The converter is powered by the included universal AC/DC adapter, which accepts a wide range of input voltages for global use. For installation, it is designed to be both rack-mountable in standard 19-inch racks and rail-mountable on DIN rails, offering flexibility for data center, network closet, or industrial panel deployments.
What type of fiber connector and technology does it use?
It uses an SC connector for the fiber optic port and operates on 1000Base-BX technology. 1000Base-BX utilizes single-strand fiber with bidirectional communication, meaning it can send and receive data over a single fiber strand, which can reduce cabling costs and complexity compared to dual-strand solutions.
