InLine Network Media Converter 10/100/1000Mb/s TP to FO (SC Duplex), SM, 20km

The InLine Network Media Converter 10/100/1000Mb/s TP to FO (SC Duplex), SM, 20km enables conversion between copper Ethernet (RJ45) and single-mode fiber (SC duplex) to extend or migrate networks cost‑effectively. Compliant with IEEE 802.3 standards, it supports 10/100/1000Base‑T on the RJ45 port and 1000Base‑FX on the fiber side, allowing optical links of up to 20 km at 1310 nm. The compact black housing includes LED indicators for activity, power and status and requires a 5 V / 1 A supply.

Advantages

The converter provides a simple way to connect distant network segments or buildings without changing existing copper cabling. It supports gigabit and legacy Ethernet speeds (10/100/1000 Mbit/s) and uses an SC duplex single‑mode fiber interface for reliable long‑distance links up to 20 km. Its compact design and standard RJ45 and SC connectors allow flexible placement in desktop or rack environments while LEDs offer clear status indication.

Suitable for

• Extending LAN connections between buildings
• Connecting remote network segments over single‑mode fiber
• Migrating from copper to fiber infrastructures
• Small office and branch office network links

How to use

Connect the RJ45 port of the media converter to the copper Ethernet device or switch. Install an SC duplex single‑mode fiber cable between the converter and the remote fiber device or another converter. Power the unit with a 5 V / 1 A adapter and verify LED indicators for power and link/activity. If creating a direct fiber link, ensure both ends are terminated with matching SC duplex connectors and the link distance does not exceed 20 km.

Recommendations

Place the converter in a dust‑free, ventilated location away from direct heat sources. Use quality single‑mode SC duplex fiber and compliant transceivers at 1310 nm for best performance. Verify cable polarity and test the fiber link after installation to confirm error‑free operation.
