Fast Ethernet fibre converter

The Perle S-100Mm-S1Sc40U is a media converter built for network engineers who need to bridge multimode and single-mode fibre segments. It accepts 100BASE-FX signals at 1310 nm over SC multimode fibre and translates them to a 100Base-BX single-strand single-mode link using 1310 nm TX and 1550 nm RX wavelengths.

Multimode to 40 km single-mode reach

The multimode side covers distances up to 2 km or 1.2 miles, suitable for campus or building-backbone runs. The single-mode side extends the link to 40 km or 24.9 miles, giving ample headroom for metro or long-haul connections. Bandwidth is fixed at 100 Mbps, so the unit will not serve gigabit or 10-gigabit circuits.

Passive cooling with USA power cord

The converter ships with a USA power cord and relies on fanless convection cooling, so it adds no audible noise to a rack or cabinet. Power draw in normal operation is low enough for standard AC outlets without special circuits. No PoE or redundant power inputs are provided.

Questions about this item

Will the SC connectors on this converter mate with the SC patch cords already on my legacy 100BASE-FX multimode links?

Yes, both the 1310 nm multimode side and the 1310/1550 nm single-strand side use SC connectors, so existing SC patch cords can be reused.

Which LED indicators confirm the 100BASE-FX 1310 nm multimode link and the 100BASE-BX 40 km single-strand link are both active?

The front-panel Link/Act LEDs for each fiber port light solid when a valid 100 Mbps signal is detected on the 2 km multimode and 40 km single-mode paths.

Does the package include the single-strand SC patch cord for the 1550 nm receive wavelength, or must I order it separately?

The box contains the media converter and a USA power cord only; single-strand SC patch cords for the 1310 nm TX and 1550 nm RX wavelengths are not included.
