Network Media Converter ALLNET ALL-MC105G-SC-SM

The ALLNET ALL-MC105G-SC-SM is a Gigabit Ethernet network media converter designed to bridge copper and single-mode fiber links. Supporting up to 1000 Mbit/s, it provides one RJ-45 Ethernet port and one SC single-mode fiber port for long-distance transmissions up to 20,000 meters. The unit complies with IEEE networking standards, includes LED indicators for link and power status, and features a compact black housing with low power consumption of 3 W for space-efficient deployments.

Advantages

This media converter enables seamless integration of copper-based network devices with single-mode fiber infrastructure, extending network reach without replacing existing equipment. Its Gigabit Ethernet support preserves high bandwidth for data-intensive applications while auto-negotiation across 10/100/1000 Mbps ensures compatibility with a range of devices. The SC fiber connector and single-mode capability provide stable long-distance links, and visible LEDs make basic diagnostics and status checks straightforward. The compact, low-weight design minimizes rack or shelf space and reduces operational power draw.

Suitable for

• Extending LAN connections between buildings or across campus using single-mode fiber
• Connecting switches, routers or servers to a fiber backbone
• Small to medium office or industrial network segments requiring long-distance links
• Environments where a compact, low-power media converter is preferred

How to use

Install the ALLNET ALL-MC105G-SC-SM on a stable surface or inside a suitable enclosure near the devices to be connected. Connect the copper network device to the RJ-45 port and attach the single-mode SC fiber cable to the fiber port, ensuring proper polarity and clean fiber endfaces. Apply power to the converter and monitor the LED indicators to confirm power and link status. The device supports auto-negotiation for Ethernet speed and duplex; no additional configuration is required for basic operation. For integration into managed networks, verify link settings on connected switches or routers to match required speeds and duplex modes.

Recommendations

Ensure fiber connectors are clean and protected during installation to maintain signal quality; route and secure fiber cables to avoid tight bends. Place the converter in a ventilated, dry location within its operating temperature range and verify that connected equipment supports the desired Ethernet data rates. For long-distance links, use certified single-mode fiber and perform link verification with appropriate testing tools after installation.
