Managed Media Converter Mount
The Perle CM-110-M2SC2 is a managed media and rate converter module designed for network administrators extending copper links over fibre. It bridges 10/100Base-TX connections to 100BASE-FX multimode fibre for campus or building-to-building deployments.
Thermals Noise and Power in Normal Use
The unit operates without active cooling, so it adds no audible noise to a rack or cabinet. Managed or unmanaged modes let administrators choose the level of monitoring required for routine operation. Power draw remains low during standard 10/100 traffic forwarding.
Behaviour Under Sustained Load
The converter handles maximum frame sizes of 2048 bytes continuously across the 2 km fibre segment at 1310 nm wavelength. Link integrity is maintained over the full 100 m copper distance without packet loss during prolonged saturation. Management functions remain responsive while the module processes steady bidirectional traffic.

Questions about this item
How do I install the CM-110-M2SC2 module into a Perle Media Converter chassis?
Slide the module into an empty slot of a compatible Perle chassis until the connector seats firmly; the step often missed is tightening the captive retention screw to secure the module and maintain grounding.
What maintenance or replacement will the CM-110-M2SC2 need over time?
The optical SC connectors should be inspected and cleaned with a fibre cleaning tool whenever links are reconfigured; the module itself has no user-replaceable parts.
What is the first limit reached on a sustained 100BASE-FX link with this module?
The 2 km multimode fibre distance limit is reached before the 2048-byte maximum frame size becomes a constraint.
