Product Features
Technical Overview
This media converter operates at Gigabit Ethernet speeds, supporting auto-negotiation for 10/100/1000Base-T on the copper side and 1000Base-BX on the fiber side. The 1000Base-BX technology uses a single strand of single-mode fiber with bidirectional communication, reducing fiber deployment costs while maintaining full-duplex Gigabit throughput.
The converter achieves a maximum supported distance of 40 kilometers over fiber, far exceeding the 100-meter limit of standard copper Ethernet. This makes it ideal for connecting buildings, extending network backbones, or linking remote equipment across campuses or industrial sites.
Key Product Advantages
The S-1110-S1SC40D combines long-reach fiber connectivity with versatile mounting and robust construction. Its compact footprint and multiple installation options allow seamless integration into existing network infrastructure without requiring significant rack space or custom hardware.
Extended Network Reach
Overcomes the 100-meter copper limitation by converting to fiber optic signals capable of spanning 40 kilometers, enabling connectivity between distant network nodes.
- Eliminates distance barriers for campus links
- Maintains Gigabit performance over long runs
- Reduces signal degradation compared to copper
Installation Flexibility
Designed for rail, rack, or wall mounting, this converter adapts to various deployment scenarios from data center rails to wall-mounted network enclosures.
- Fits standard 19-inch rack rails
- Includes wall-mounting provisions
- Compact size minimizes space requirements
Deployment / Use Cases
This media converter is engineered for scenarios where extending network connectivity beyond copper limitations is required. It serves as a practical solution for integrating fiber backbone segments into predominantly copper-based networks, providing both distance extension and electrical isolation.
Common applications include connecting separate buildings within a campus, linking remote security cameras or IoT devices over long distances, integrating industrial equipment in manufacturing plants, and extending network drops in large facilities like warehouses or hospitals. The rail-mountable form factor makes it particularly suitable for control panels, network cabinets, and DIN rail installations in industrial automation environments.
Physical Profile
The converter measures 1 inch in height, 4.70 inches in width, and 3.10 inches in depth (25.40 × 119.38 × 78.74 mm), with a weight of approximately 500 grams. This compact design allows dense installations in confined spaces while maintaining adequate ventilation for reliable operation. The housing includes integrated mounting points for rail, rack, or wall attachment, and the front panel features clear status LEDs for link activity and power indication.

FAQ
What does this media converter actually convert?
This converter transforms network signals between two different media types: it converts 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet signals from standard copper RJ-45 cabling to 1000Base-BX signals for single-mode fiber optic cabling. This allows you to extend your network beyond the 100-meter limitation of copper Ethernet by utilizing fiber optic infrastructure.
What is the maximum distance this converter supports?
The Perle S-1110-S1SC40D supports network connections up to 40 kilometers when using single-mode fiber optic cable. This substantial reach makes it suitable for connecting buildings across campuses, linking remote equipment in industrial settings, or extending network backbones between geographically separated locations.
What mounting options are available for this converter?
This converter offers three mounting methods: rail-mountable for DIN rail installations in industrial panels, rack-mountable for standard 19-inch equipment racks, and wall-mountable for direct attachment to surfaces. This flexibility allows deployment in data centers, network closets, control rooms, or field installations without requiring additional mounting hardware.
What type of fiber connector does this converter use?
The converter features one SC port for fiber optic connections. The SC connector is a push-pull type commonly used in single-mode fiber applications, providing reliable connections with good dust resistance. This connector type is widely available and compatible with standard single-mode fiber patch cables.
