Product Features
Technical Overview
Engineered for Gigabit Ethernet performance, the N785-INT-PSFP handles 10/100/1000Base-T on the RJ-45 side and 1000Base-X on the fiber side, ensuring full-duplex data rates up to 1000 Mbps. The integrated SFP slot accepts industry-standard SFP transceivers, letting network administrators choose the exact fiber type, wavelength, and reach for their specific application.
Power is supplied via an included external AC adapter with universal 100-240V input, and the package includes four regional power cables for North America, Europe, the U.K., and Australia, supporting global deployment without additional adapters.
This section brings together practical product details such as Total Number of Ports, Network (RJ-45), Number of Network (RJ-45) Ports, Media Type Supported, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
This converter eliminates media mismatches by transparently extending network segments over fiber, which is immune to EMI and supports longer distances than copper. The pole or ceiling mountable design saves rack space and allows discreet placement in telecom closets, ceilings, or along conduit runs.
Fiber Flexibility
Accepts any standard SFP module, so you can match the exact fiber type—single-mode for long-haul links or multi-mode for shorter, cost-sensitive runs—without changing the base unit.
- Supports both single-mode and multi-mode fiber
- Hot-swappable SFP slot for easy upgrades
Global Power Ready
Includes four international power cables, so the same unit deploys seamlessly across different regions without sourcing local cords or voltage converters.
- Covers North America, Europe, U.K., Australia
- 100-240V AC input range
Deployment / Use Cases
Deploy the N785-INT-PSFP wherever you need to convert between copper and fiber within a Gigabit Ethernet network. Typical scenarios include extending a switch’s copper port over fiber to a remote office, connecting fiber backbone segments to copper-based edge devices, or integrating fiber for noise immunity in industrial settings.
Its compact, mountable form factor suits installations in tight spaces like ceiling plenums, electrical panels, or alongside existing conduit. The included international power cables make it ideal for multinational organizations or branch offices that require consistent hardware across different countries.
Network Extension
Use fiber to span distances beyond the 100-meter limit of Cat5e/6 copper, connecting buildings or floors while maintaining Gigabit speeds and avoiding ground loops or interference.
Media Integration
Bridge older copper-based network equipment with newer fiber infrastructure, allowing gradual upgrades without replacing entire segments.
Physical Profile
The converter measures 0.98 inches high by 2.76 inches wide by 3.74 inches deep, making it one of the smallest media converters available. Its pole and ceiling mountable design includes integrated mounting points for secure installation in vertical or overhead positions, keeping it out of the way in crowded network cabinets or industrial control panels.

User Manual
FAQ
What does this media converter do?
The N785-INT-PSFP converts Gigabit Ethernet signals between a standard RJ-45 copper port and an SFP fiber optic slot. It lets you connect copper-based network equipment to fiber optic cabling, enabling longer distance runs and noise immunity that copper alone cannot provide.
Does it include SFP transceivers?
No, the converter includes one SFP slot but does not come with an SFP transceiver module. You must purchase a compatible Gigabit SFP module separately based on your fiber type—single-mode or multi-mode—and desired distance. The slot accepts industry-standard SFP (mini-GBIC) modules.
What power cables are included?
The package includes four regional power cables with plugs for North America (NEMA 5-15P), Europe (CEE 7/16), the U.K. (BS 1363), and Australia (AS3112). The external power supply accepts 100-240V AC input, so you can use the appropriate cable for your location without needing voltage converters.
How is this unit mounted?
The converter is designed for pole or ceiling mounting, with integrated mounting points that allow secure installation on vertical surfaces or overhead. Its compact dimensions—under 1 inch high and less than 4 inches deep—make it easy to fit in tight spaces like telecom closets, conduit runs, or equipment panels.
What environmental standards does it meet?
This product is environmentally friendly and complies with Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS and RoHS 3), Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH), and Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE). These standards ensure reduced hazardous materials and proper end-of-life recycling.
What is the warranty period?
Tripp Lite by Eaton provides a 2-year limited warranty for the N785-INT-PSFP transceiver/media converter. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal use, offering reliable support for your network infrastructure investments.
