FAQ
What type of fiber connections does this media converter support?
This Perle media converter features one SC duplex port for fiber optic connections. The SC connector type provides secure, precise alignment for reliable fiber transmission. The duplex configuration supports separate transmit and receive paths, ensuring full-duplex communication at 100 Mbps data rates over supported fiber cable types.
How far can this converter transmit data over fiber optic cable?
The CM-100MM-S1SC40U supports maximum transmission distances of 40 kilometers, which equals approximately 24.85 miles. This extended reach makes it suitable for connecting network segments between buildings or across campuses where copper Ethernet distance limitations would otherwise require additional networking equipment or signal boosters.
What fiber cable types are compatible with this media converter?
This converter works with multiple fiber optic cable specifications including 100/140 µm, 85/125 µm, 62.5/125 µm, 50/125 µm, and 9/125 µm core/cladding diameters. This broad compatibility covers both multimode and single-mode fiber types, providing flexibility for different existing infrastructure or new deployment requirements without requiring specific cable matching.
What does 'internal form factor' mean for installation?
Internal form factor indicates this media converter installs directly into compatible networking equipment such as media converter chassis or switches with available internal slots. Unlike external converters that require separate enclosures and power adapters, this design integrates cleanly into existing equipment, reducing cable clutter and external components while maintaining organized network infrastructure.
