Network Media Converter ROLINE 21.13.1135 1000 Mbit/s Multi-mode Black

The ROLINE 21.13.1135 Network Media Converter provides a compact solution for converting network signals to multi-mode fiber. Supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 1000 Mbit/s and a 1000Base-SX output interface, the device complies with IEEE 802.3 standards and is intended for multi-mode fiber links with a maximum reach of 500 m. Its black housing and lightweight design make it easy to integrate into existing network racks or small networking setups where space is limited.

Advantages

The converter supports gigabit speeds for consistent throughput over fiber and ensures compatibility with IEEE 802.3 networking equipment. Designed for multi-mode fiber, it enables fiber connections up to 500 m, reducing the need for multiple switches or repeaters on short-to-medium links. The compact, black enclosure and modest weight simplify installation in constrained environments and minimize rack space usage.

Suitable for

• Extending network segments over multi-mode fiber up to 500 m
• Connecting copper or electronic network equipment to 1000Base-SX fiber links
• Small office or branch deployments requiring a compact media conversion device
• Integration into mixed-media network infrastructures that follow IEEE 802.3 standards

Key specifications

• Maximum data transfer rate: 1000 Mbit/s
• Output interface: 1000Base-SX (multi-mode fiber)
• Supported standards: IEEE 802.3 family
• Maximum transmission distance on multi-mode fiber: 500 m
• Product colour: Black
• Weight: 0.4748 kg

How to use

Connect the media converter to your copper/electronic network device according to the manufacturer's port layout, then attach multi-mode fiber cabling to the 1000Base-SX output interface. Ensure fiber connectors and transceivers are compatible with 1000Base-SX specifications and that links are correctly terminated. Power the unit following the supplied power requirements and verify link/activity LEDs (if present) to confirm a successful connection. Test the link at gigabit speeds and monitor network performance as part of initial deployment.

Recommendations

Place the converter in a dry, ventilated area away from strong electromagnetic interference. Use certified multi-mode fiber cabling and compatible connectors to achieve the specified 500 m reach. For reliable operation, follow local grounding and cable management best practices and verify compatibility with existing IEEE 802.3 equipment.
