Product Features
Technical Overview
This media converter operates at Fast Ethernet speeds (100 Mbps) and supports both 10/100Base-TX over twisted pair and 100Base-FX over single-mode fiber. The SC duplex port ensures proper alignment for bidirectional fiber communication at 1310nm, a common wavelength for long-distance single-mode applications.
Power is supplied via an included external AC adapter with a NEMA 1-15P plug, supporting input voltages from 100-240VAC at 50/60 Hz. The converter outputs a stable 12VDC at 1.5A, ensuring reliable operation with minimal energy draw.
Relevant factors for this section include Total Number of Ports, Network (RJ-45), Number of Network (RJ-45) Ports, Media Type Supported. When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.
Key Product Advantages
This converter extends network segments beyond the 100-meter limit of standard copper Ethernet by leveraging fiber optic cabling, which is immune to electromagnetic interference and supports much longer runs. The single-mode fiber support with SC duplex connectors provides a reliable, industry-standard interface for professional installations.
Versatile Deployment
The compact form factor supports desktop, wall-mount, or DIN rail installation, offering flexibility for rack cabinets, control panels, or direct wall placement in tight spaces.
- Desktop placement
- Wall-mount with included hardware
- DIN rail mounting with included kit
Environmental Compliance
Manufactured to meet RoHS and WEEE directives, this product is environmentally friendly and TAA compliant, suitable for government and institutional procurement.
Deployment / Use Cases
Deploy this media converter to connect copper-based network equipment, like switches or routers, to fiber optic backbone cabling in buildings, between facilities, or across campuses. It is ideal for extending network reach in industrial settings, educational institutions, or office parks where long-distance connectivity is required.
Common applications include linking network closets across different floors or buildings, integrating fiber runs into existing copper networks, and providing noise-immune connections in electrically noisy environments like manufacturing floors. The DIN rail mounting option makes it suitable for industrial control panels or telecom cabinets.
Building-to-Building Connectivity
Use single-mode fiber to connect networks between separate structures up to 30 km apart, avoiding ground potential differences and lightning risks associated with copper.
Network Segmentation Extension
Extend a Fast Ethernet segment from a central switch to remote offices or equipment rooms without signal degradation, maintaining full 100 Mbps throughput.
Physical Profile
The converter has a compact footprint measuring 2.91" wide by 4.30" deep by 0.92" high (73.91 mm x 109.22 mm x 23.37 mm), making it easy to install in confined spaces. Its lightweight design at 8.43 ounces (238.91 grams) and included rubber feet ensure stable desktop placement, while the L-shaped bracket and wall-mounting hardware allow for secure vertical or horizontal mounting.

User Manual
FAQ
What does this media converter do?
This converter bridges a Fast Ethernet network between copper twisted pair cabling and single-mode fiber optic cabling. It takes a 10/100Base-TX signal from an RJ-45 port and converts it to a 100Base-FX signal for transmission over a single-mode SC duplex fiber port, allowing network extension over much longer distances than copper alone supports.
What is the maximum distance supported over fiber?
The converter supports a maximum distance of 30 kilometers (approximately 18.64 miles) when using single-mode fiber optic cable. This extended range is ideal for connecting network segments between buildings or across large campuses without signal degradation.
What type of fiber connector and mode does it use?
It uses an SC duplex connector for the fiber optic interface and supports single-mode fiber only. The operating wavelength is 1310nm, which is standard for long-distance single-mode applications, ensuring compatibility with common single-mode fiber infrastructure.
How is the converter powered?
Power is supplied by an included external AC adapter with a NEMA 1-15P plug. The adapter accepts a wide input range of 100-240VAC at 50/60 Hz and provides 12VDC at 1.5A output. The converter itself consumes only 1.80 watts, making it energy-efficient.
What mounting options are available?
The converter offers three mounting options: desktop placement using the included rubber foot, wall-mounting with the provided L-shaped bracket and hardware, or DIN rail mounting using the included DIN rail kit. This flexibility allows installation in network closets, industrial panels, or office environments.
What is included in the package?
The package contains the N784-H01-SCSM media converter, an L-shaped bracket, a rubber foot, an SC connector cap, an external power supply with NEMA 1-15P plug, a DIN rail kit, wall-mounting hardware, and a quick start guide. All necessary components are included for immediate deployment.
