Network Transceiver for Copper-to-Fibre Extension

The Perle 05050224 is a Fast Ethernet media converter that transparently connects 10/100Base-TX copper cabling to 100Base-FX fibre. It features one RJ-45 port and one LC duplex interface to bridge dissimilar network segments. The unit extends link distance up to 1.24 Mile over multimode fibre.

Suitable for Legacy Fast Ethernet Links

This converter suits administrators maintaining existing 100 Mb/s infrastructure who need to bridge copper and fibre without replacing switches. It is not intended for gigabit or 10-gigabit environments, nor for single-mode fibre runs beyond the rated distance. Buyers needing higher throughput or longer reach should consider other equipment.

Passive Operation Within Rated Distance

The device operates without active cooling across its specified 1.24 Mile range, maintaining link integrity under continuous load. Its compact 1.0 by 3.1 by 4.7 inch form factor and 1.15 lb weight allow dense deployment in patch panels or enclosures. No software configuration is required for sustained operation.

Questions about this item

What type of fiber patch cable do I need for the LC duplex port on this Perle 05050224?

You need a duplex multimode fiber patch cable with LC connectors on both ends to match the 100Base-FX interface.

Can I connect this media converter to my existing 10 Mbps hub through the RJ-45 port?

Yes, the 10/100Base-TX RJ-45 port auto-negotiates speed, so it will link at 10 Mbps with your older hub.

How can I verify the link is active after I connect the LC fiber and RJ-45 cables?

Check the front-panel LEDs; a solid Link/Act light on both the fiber and copper ports shows the 1.24 mile connection is working.
