Product Features
Technical Overview
The TFC-110S20D3I operates as a standalone media converter with one 10/100Base-TX RJ-45 port for copper connectivity and one SC fiber port for optical fiber output. It supports both twisted pair and optical fiber media types, specifically multi-mode fiber, and leverages Fast Ethernet technology for consistent 100 Mbps performance.
Port-level SNMP management support allows for remote monitoring and configuration, providing visibility into link status and activity. Status LED indicators for Power and Link/Activity offer at-a-glance operational feedback. The converter is powered by an included 5 V DC, 1 A adapter and features a removable metal enclosure for durability and serviceability.
