Perle CM-100-M2ST2 Transceiver

The Perle CM-100-M2ST2 is a Fast Ethernet media converter module designed for network administrators extending copper links over multimode fiber. It installs in a high-density Perle chassis to transparently connect 100Base-TX equipment to 100Base-FX fiber segments. This module suits environments that need to bridge legacy copper infrastructure to fiber without replacing existing switches or endpoints.

100 Mbps speed and 1.24 Mile reach

The transceiver operates at 100 Mbps using 100Base-FX and 100Base-TX standards, limiting throughput to Fast Ethernet rates. Maximum link distance is 1.24 Mile over multimode fiber with ST duplex connectors, so longer campus or metro runs require different optics. The single RJ-45 port provides one copper connection per module, restricting port density to the chassis capacity.

One copper-to-fiber link per module

Each unit handles a single 100Base-TX to 100Base-FX conversion, supporting distances up to 1.24 Mile for building-to-building or extended floor links. It runs out when bandwidth demands exceed 100 Mbps, when link lengths surpass the rated distance, or when more than one fiber segment is needed per module. Networks requiring Gigabit speeds or additional ports must deploy separate higher-speed transceivers.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 1.24 mile version or a shorter-range 100Base-FX module?

Select the 1.24 mile CM-100-M2ST2 when the fiber run between chassis reaches up to that distance; shorter-range optics cost less but will not cover the same span.

What does the 100 Mbps rating deliver in a live network?

The transceiver passes full-duplex 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet traffic across the ST duplex fiber link with no throughput reduction from the copper-to-fiber conversion.

How does the ST duplex interface limit the link?

The ST duplex connector pairs one transmit and one receive fiber, fixing the link at 100Base-FX speed and the stated 1.24 mile maximum distance.
