FAQ
What types of connections does this media converter support?
This converter supports two types of connections: two RJ-45 ports for standard twisted pair Ethernet cabling and one ST port for multi-mode fiber optic connections. The RJ-45 ports handle 10/100Base-T Ethernet, while the ST port supports 100Base-BX-D fiber optic transmission. This dual-media capability allows conversion between copper and fiber network segments.
What is the maximum distance this converter can extend my network?
The converter extends network connections up to 2 kilometers (approximately 1.24 miles) when using fiber optic cabling. This distance represents the maximum supported span for the fiber optic interface, significantly exceeding the limitations of standard copper Ethernet cabling. The actual achievable distance may vary based on fiber quality and environmental conditions.
What fiber specifications are compatible with this converter?
This converter supports multi-mode fiber optic cables with core/cladding specifications of 62.5/125 µm, 50/125 µm, 85/125 µm, and 100/140 µm. It operates at wavelengths of 1310 nm and 1550 nm, providing compatibility with common multi-mode fiber infrastructure. The device does not support single-mode fiber operation.
How can I mount this media converter in my network environment?
The converter offers four mounting options for installation flexibility: desktop placement, wall mounting, rail attachment, and standard rack mounting. The compact dimensions of 6.89" wide × 5.71" deep × 0.91" high allow installation in space-constrained environments. All necessary hardware for these mounting methods is typically included or available separately for professional installation.
What power requirements does this converter have?
The converter is powered by an included 100-240V AC regulated DC adapter that provides appropriate voltage conversion for the device.
