Product Features
Technical Overview
This converter operates at Fast Ethernet speeds (10/100 Mbps) and supports both 10/100Base-TX on the RJ-45 copper side and 100Base-FX on the fiber side. The SC-type fiber port uses dual-wavelength technology for single-mode fiber, ensuring stable signal integrity over the maximum 40 km reach. The device handles twisted pair and optical fiber media types, converting electrical signals to optical signals without data loss or latency introduction.
The converter requires an external 5 V DC, 1 A power adapter for operation and includes comprehensive environmental compliance with RoHS and WEEE directives. Built with industrial-grade components, it maintains consistent performance across temperature variations and typical network deployment conditions.

Deployment / Use Cases
This media converter is engineered for network segments requiring extended reach beyond copper limitations, such as connecting buildings across a campus, linking remote industrial equipment, or extending network backbones in municipal or transportation infrastructure. It converts existing copper-based Fast Ethernet segments to fiber optic links, preserving network investments while gaining distance and noise immunity.
Common deployment scenarios include connecting network switches between separate facilities, extending surveillance camera networks over long distances, integrating fiber backbones into legacy copper networks, and providing fiber uplinks for remote access points or IoT devices. The converter's wall-mountable design allows installation in electrical enclosures, while desktop placement suits server rooms or telecom racks.
Campus Network Extension
Connect academic buildings, administrative offices, or research facilities across large campuses using existing single-mode fiber infrastructure.
Industrial Network Bridging
Extend network connectivity to remote manufacturing equipment, PLCs, or sensors in factories, warehouses, or outdoor installations.
Physical Profile
The converter measures 4" (101.60 mm) in height, 10" (254 mm) in width, and 10" (254 mm) in depth, with an approximate weight of 5.06 lb (2295.18 g). Its compact desktop form factor includes keyhole slots for wall mounting, enabling flexible placement in network cabinets, on walls, or alongside other networking equipment.
