Perle S-1000Mm-S1Sc10U Media Converter 05060344

SKU CH-NPNY-52VR1

Converts 1000BASE-SX 850 nm multimode fiber to 1000BASE-BX 1310/1490 nm single-strand single-mode fiber over 550 m or 10 km

  • TypeData & Communication
  • Gigabit fiber-to-fiber conversion links multimode and single-mode networks
  • 1000BASE-SX 850 nm multimode reaches 550 m over SC fiber
  • 1000BASE-BX 1310 nm TX / 1490 nm RX single strand extends to 10 km
  • Single SC connector simplifies cabling for bidirectional single-fiber runs
  • Includes USA power cord for immediate deployment

What this media converter does

The Perle S-1000Mm-S1Sc10U converts gigabit fibre signals between two different wavelengths and fibre types. It links 1000BASE-SX 850 nm multimode fibre to 1000BASE-BX single-strand single-mode fibre with 1310 nm transmit and 1490 nm receive wavelengths. Network engineers use it to extend links across mixed fibre plants.

Distance limits on each fibre type

The multimode side reaches 550 m or 1804 ft at 1000BASE-SX. The single-mode side reaches 10 km or 6.2 miles at 1000BASE-BX. Both interfaces use SC connectors. The converter does not amplify the signal beyond these rated distances, so plan the link budget accordingly.

Installation notes and common issues

The unit ships with a USA power cord and mounts in a standard rack or on a desktop. Connect the SC patch cords, apply power, and the link LEDs show status. Most problems come from mismatched TX/RX wavelengths on the BX side or from using the wrong fibre type for the distance required.

Questions about this item

Which fiber link distance fits my run, the 550 m multimode side or the 10 km single-mode side?

Choose the 550 m multimode link for short campus runs and the 10 km single-mode link for longer metro spans; the converter bridges both automatically.

What does the 1000BASE-SX to 1000BASE-BX conversion mean for my Gigabit network?

It translates 850 nm multimode signals to a 1310 nm TX / 1490 nm RX single-strand single-mode signal, extending reach from 550 m to 10 km at full Gigabit speed.

How does the SC single-strand interface limit the deployment?

The SC single-strand port carries both wavelengths on one fiber, cabling cost drops but you must match 1310 nm TX / 1490 nm RX at the far end.
