LevelOne Media Converter RJ45 to SC Single-Mode 1310/1550nm 20km

The LevelOne Media Converter RJ45 to SC Single-Mode 1310/1550nm 20km is a high-performance Fast Ethernet media converter designed to extend network distances over single-mode fiber. It converts 100Base-TX copper to 100Base-FX fiber, supporting bi-directional communication over a single fiber strand with wavelengths of 1310nm (transmit) and 1550nm (receive). Ideal for connecting remote devices up to 20km away, this converter ensures reliable data transmission in enterprise and industrial environments.

Advantages

This media converter offers seamless integration of copper and fiber networks, providing extended reach and immunity to electromagnetic interference. Its bi-directional (BiDi) technology reduces fiber usage by half, lowering deployment costs. With auto MDI/MDI-X and Link Fault Pass-Through (LFP), it simplifies installation and enhances network troubleshooting. The metal housing ensures durability, while LED indicators offer real-time status monitoring.
