Convertitore di media Fast Ethernet Intellinet, da 10/100Base-Tx a 100Base-Fx (SC) multimodale, 2 km

The Intellinet Fast Ethernet Media Converter 10/100Base-Tx to 100Base-Fx SC enables straightforward migration from copper-based Ethernet to fibre networks. It converts 10/100Base-Tx (RJ-45) to 100Base-Fx SC multimode fibre, supporting up to 100 Mbit/s and link distances up to 2000 m. Housed in a compact metal case with LED indicators for LAN, Link, Power and Status, the converter is transparent to existing network configuration while providing fibre connectivity for network expansion and building-to-building links.

Advantages

The converter extends network reach without modifying existing copper cabling and supports flexible deployment in desktop, wall-mount or rack-mount chassis installations. Its metal housing offers durability and the device consumes low power (max 2.5 W). Simple LED indicators allow easy monitoring of link and power status. The single RJ-45 and SC fibre ports provide a cost-effective solution for connecting Ethernet segments over multimode fibre.

Suitable for

• Extending LAN segments between floors or buildings
• Connecting remote workgroups to a central network
• Migrating from copper Ethernet to fibre-based links
• Short-term or permanent links where a single fibre port is sufficient

Key specifications

• Weight: 0.5 kg
• Power consumption: max 2.5 W

How to use

Place the converter near the copper Ethernet device or in the desired installation location. Connect the RJ-45 port to the existing Ethernet device or switch and insert the SC multimode fibre cable into the fibre port. Power the unit and verify LEDs for LAN, Link, Power and Status to confirm operation. If using multiple converters in a rack, install them into a compatible 19" chassis before connecting cables.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use multimode SC fibre with appropriate attenuation for the target distance (up to 2000 m) and ensure compatible duplex settings on connected Ethernet devices. Avoid exceeding the specified maximum distance and verify link LEDs after installation to confirm stable connectivity.
