Product Features
Technical Overview
Engineered for precise media conversion, the N785-P01-LC-MM1 operates at an 850 nm wavelength over multi-mode fiber, supporting distances up to 0.55 km (0.34 miles). The duplex LC connector provides a secure optical interface, while the RJ-45 port handles standard Category 5e/6/6a copper cabling.
Its compact form factor and low power consumption make it ideal for space-constrained installations. The converter maintains signal integrity across both media types, supporting full-duplex operation without data compression or latency penalties.
This section brings together practical product details such as Total Number of Ports, Network (RJ-45), Number of LC Ports, Media Type Supported, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
This media converter extends network reach cost-effectively by leveraging existing copper infrastructure while adding fiber for longer runs. It eliminates the need for complete fiber overhauls, providing a practical upgrade path for growing networks.
Distance Extension
Overcomes the 100-meter limitation of standard copper Ethernet by supporting fiber runs up to 550 meters, ideal for connecting buildings or remote equipment.
- Multi-mode fiber at 850 nm
- 0.55 km maximum distance
- Maintains Gigabit speed
Media Flexibility
Seamlessly integrates copper and fiber segments, allowing mixed-media network designs without replacing existing cabling.
- RJ-45 for twisted pair
- LC for fiber optic
- Auto-negotiating ports
Deployment / Use Cases
Deploy the N785-P01-LC-MM1 wherever you need to extend a Gigabit Ethernet network beyond copper limitations or isolate segments electrically. Its compact size and external power make installation straightforward in telecom closets, industrial control panels, or equipment racks.
Common applications include connecting network switches between buildings, linking security cameras over long distances, integrating fiber backbones into copper-based LANs, and extending point-of-sale or VoIP systems across large facilities. The converter is also useful for avoiding ground loop issues and reducing electromagnetic interference in sensitive environments.
Physical Profile
The converter measures 3.74" wide × 2.76" deep × 0.98" high (95 × 70.1 × 24.89 mm) and weighs approximately 7.04 oz (199.58 g). Its slim, desktop-friendly design allows placement on shelves or mounting via optional kits. The durable casing provides adequate ventilation for continuous operation.

FAQ
What does this media converter do?
The Tripp Lite N785-P01-LC-MM1 converts Gigabit Ethernet signals between a standard RJ-45 copper port and a duplex LC multi-mode fiber port. It allows you to extend network connections beyond the 100-meter limit of copper cabling by using fiber optic cable for longer runs up to 0.55 km while maintaining full 1000 Mbps throughput.
What type of fiber cable is compatible?
This converter requires multi-mode fiber optic cable with LC connectors. It operates at an 850 nm wavelength, compatible with common OM1, OM2, or OM3 multi-mode fibers. Ensure the cable has duplex LC connectors to match the port type for proper bidirectional communication.
What is the maximum distance supported?
The maximum supported distance is 0.55 kilometers (approximately 0.34 miles) when using multi-mode fiber at 850 nm. This extends far beyond the 100-meter limitation of standard copper Ethernet, making it suitable for connecting buildings or remote equipment across campus environments.
What power supply is included?
The package includes an external power supply with a 3.6-foot cord and NEMA 5-15P plug. It accepts universal input voltage from 100 to 240V AC at 50/60 Hz and provides 48V DC at 1.25A output. This wide input range allows deployment in various regions without needing additional adapters.
Is this converter plug-and-play?
Yes, the converter is plug-and-play for basic connectivity. It auto-negotiates speed and duplex on the RJ-45 port (10/100/1000Base-T) and operates at fixed 1000 Mbps on the fiber port (1000Base-X). No configuration software is required; simply connect the cables and power for immediate operation.
What warranty does it come with?
Tripp Lite provides a 2-year limited warranty for the N785-P01-LC-MM1 media converter. This covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal use. The product is also RoHS compliant and environmentally friendly, meeting regulatory standards for hazardous substance restrictions.
