FAQ
What does this media converter do?
The Perle CM-1000-M1SC05U converts Gigabit Ethernet signals between a standard RJ-45 copper port and an SC multi-mode fiber optic port. This allows network traffic to transition from twisted pair cabling to fiber optic, extending the network reach up to 0.55 kilometers while maintaining full Gigabit speed.
What types of fiber optic cable does it support?
This converter supports multi-mode fiber optic cables with SC connectors. It is compatible with wavelengths of 1310 nm and 1550 nm, which are common in multi-mode fiber installations for enterprise and industrial networks.
What is the maximum distance supported over fiber?
The maximum supported distance over multi-mode fiber is 0.55 kilometers, equivalent to 0.34 miles. This extends far beyond the typical 100-meter limit of copper Ethernet, making it suitable for connecting network segments across buildings or large facilities.
How is this media converter installed?
The CM-1000-M1SC05U has an internal form factor, meaning it is designed to be installed into a compatible media converter chassis or network equipment slot. It requires connection to the host system for power and integration, with minimal energy consumption during operation.
What does 'managed' mean for this module?
As a managed media converter module, it provides capabilities for network monitoring and control through the host system. This allows administrators to oversee link status, performance metrics, and configuration settings, enhancing network reliability and troubleshooting compared to unmanaged converters.
What warranty does this product include?
