Perle CM-100MM-S1SC20D Media Converter Mount
The Perle CM-100MM-S1SC20D is a managed Fast Ethernet fiber-to-fiber converter module designed for network administrators extending links between multimode and single-mode infrastructure. It bridges 100BASE-FX 1310 nm multimode SC connections up to 2 km with 100Base-BX 1550 nm TX / 1310 nm RX single-strand single-mode SC links up to 20 km. The module supports managed or unmanaged operation for flexible deployment.
Sustained Link Performance
The converter maintains a consistent 100 Mbps data rate across the full 20 km single-mode span and the 1.2 mile multimode segment without the throughput drops seen in short-burst test scenarios. Wavelength division multiplexing on a single strand keeps the signal stable over long distances, while the managed mode allows continuous monitoring of link health and error counters during extended operation.
Upgrade Path and Fit
This module replaces a pair of separate multimode and single-mode transceivers when a network segment must cross the 2 km multimode limit and reach 12.4 miles on single-mode fiber. It is not suited for gigabit or 10 Gbps links, nor for dual-strand single-mode runs that require separate TX and RX fibers. Buyers needing higher bandwidth or different wavelength pairs should select a converter specified for those speeds.

Questions about this item
Does the CM-100MM-S1SC20D need a fan or external power supply when running continuously?
The module is a managed Fast Ethernet fiber-to-fiber converter that operates from the host chassis; no separate fan or external power supply is required for continuous use.
What chassis or slot type must I already own to install the CM-100MM-S1SC20D?
It fits a Perle Media Converter chassis that accepts managed converter modules with SC connectors for 100BASE-FX and 100Base-BX wavelengths.
Will the CM-100MM-S1SC20D link with my existing 100BASE-FX multimode equipment at 1310 nm?
Yes, the module provides a 100BASE-FX 1310 nm multimode SC interface rated for 2 km and a 100Base-BX 1550 nm TX / 1310 nm RX single-mode SC interface rated for 20 km.
