Product Features
Technical Overview
The TI-F11SFP operates as a layer 2 media converter, transparently converting electrical Ethernet signals to optical fiber. It features one 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 port with auto-negotiation and one SFP slot that accepts industry-standard SFP transceivers. The maximum data transfer rate is 2 Gbit/s full-duplex, supporting Gigabit Ethernet over both copper and fiber interfaces. The converter is compliant with IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, and 802.3ab standards for reliable interoperability in mixed-network deployments.
Power is supplied via a removable 3-wire terminal block accepting 12-60V DC, with low consumption of 1.64 watts. Integrated 6kV surge protection on the RJ-45 port guards against electrical transients, while the operating temperature range of -40° to 75°C ensures functionality in extreme climates. The compact form factor measures 2.24" x 2.52" x 0.98" (57 x 64 x 25 mm) and weighs 5.08 oz (144 g), facilitating installation in space-constrained enclosures or on standard DIN-rails.

Deployment / Use Cases
The TI-F11SFP is engineered for scenarios where copper Ethernet needs to transition to fiber optic cabling, particularly in challenging physical environments. Its hardened design and flexible mounting make it ideal for industrial automation, outdoor networking, and infrastructure projects.
In manufacturing plants, this converter can link control systems over fiber to isolate sensitive equipment from electrical noise. For surveillance deployments, it extends camera feeds over long distances while withstanding temperature extremes. Utility and transportation networks benefit from its ability to operate in unmanned enclosures or along rail lines, where dust, moisture, and wide temperature swings are common. The converter also serves in data center edge extensions, connecting remote cabinets over fiber backbones with minimal footprint.
Physical Profile
The converter features a compact, rugged metal housing designed for industrial mounting. Dimensions of 2.24" x 2.52" x 0.98" (57 x 64 x 25 mm) allow it to fit in tight spaces, while the 5.08 oz (144 g) weight minimizes load on DIN-rails or walls. The form factor supports both DIN-rail mounting using the included clip and direct wall mounting with screws, providing flexibility for cabinet, panel, or surface installations. The terminal block power connector is removable for easy wiring, and the overall design prioritizes durability and ease of integration in constrained environments.

User Manual
FAQ
What does this media converter do?
The TRENDnet TI-F11SFP converts electrical 100/1000Base-T Ethernet signals from a copper RJ-45 port to optical signals for an SFP fiber optic module. It enables network extension over fiber cabling, bridging copper and fiber segments in industrial or commercial setups.
What types of fiber SFP modules are supported?
The SFP slot accepts industry-standard multi-mode or single-mode SFP transceivers. You can choose modules based on distance needs and existing fiber infrastructure, with support for up to 80 km using compatible single-mode optics like the TEG-MGBS80 module.
How is the converter powered?
Power is supplied via a removable 3-wire terminal block that accepts 12-60V DC input. This wide voltage range allows use with various DC power sources, but note that a power supply is sold separately (model TI-M6024). The converter consumes only 1.64 watts for energy efficiency.
What mounting options are included?
The package includes hardware for both DIN-rail and wall mounting. The DIN-rail clip attaches to standard 35 mm rails commonly used in industrial cabinets, while the wall mount option uses screws for direct surface installation, offering flexibility for different deployment scenarios.
What environmental ratings does it have?
The converter features an IP50 rating, providing protection against dust ingress and limited water exposure. It operates in temperatures from -40° to 75°C (-40° to 167°F), making it suitable for harsh outdoor or industrial environments with extreme conditions.
Is this product compliant with government procurement standards?
Yes, the TI-F11SFP is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant and NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act) compliant, meeting requirements for U.S. federal and government-related purchases where sourcing regulations apply.
