Single-Strand Fibre Media Converter

The Perle S-100-S1SC40D converts 100Base-TX copper signals to 100Base-BX single-mode fibre using a single SC connector. It transmits at 1550 nm and receives at 1310 nm over distances up to 40 km. The unit includes a USA power cord for immediate deployment.

40 km Single-Mode Reach

This converter supports a maximum link distance of 40 km or 24.9 miles on single-mode fibre. The 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet rate is fixed by the 100Base-BX standard. No longer reach or higher speed is available from this model.

Installers Extending Copper Links

Network technicians extending LAN segments beyond the 100 m copper limit will use this converter. It is not for gigabit or 10 gigabit links, nor for multi-mode fibre or dual-strand single-mode installations. Buyers needing higher bandwidth or different fibre types should look elsewhere.
