Perle 100Base-BX Media Converter Mount

The Perle CM-100-S1SC20U is a managed Fast Ethernet media converter module designed for network integration. It bridges copper and single-mode fibre infrastructure in enterprise or campus environments. Suitable for technicians extending LAN segments over long distances.

Verify RJ-45 and SC single-mode fibre compatibility

Confirm the existing switch or router provides a 100Base-TX RJ-45 port operating at 100 m or 328 ft. Ensure the fibre patch panel or cable plant uses SC connectors with 1310 nm TX and 1550 nm RX wavelengths. The link budget supports up to 20 km or 12.4 miles of single-strand fibre.

Managed operation sustains 100 Mbps over 20 km

In managed mode the module maintains a steady 100Base-BX connection across the full 20 km single-mode span. The single-strand architecture keeps transmit and receive paths stable without wavelength drift. Unmanaged fallback remains available if the management plane is offline.
