FAQ
What does this media converter do?
The Perle SR-1000-SC10U converts Gigabit Ethernet signals from a standard RJ-45 copper connection to a single-mode fiber optic link. This allows network extension up to 10 kilometers while maintaining full Gigabit speed and improving signal integrity in electrically noisy environments.
What type of fiber does it support?
It supports single-mode fiber with a 9/125 µm core/cladding specification. Single-mode fiber is designed for long-distance transmission, making this converter suitable for building-to-building or campus-wide network links.
What is the maximum distance it can cover?
The converter supports a maximum distance of 10 kilometers (6.21 miles) over single-mode fiber. This extended reach is ideal for connecting network segments that are too far for standard copper Ethernet cabling.
What wavelengths does the fiber port use?
The SC simplex port operates at 1310 nm and 1490 nm wavelengths. These are common wavelengths for single-mode fiber systems, supporting bidirectional communication over a single fiber strand in simplex applications.
