Media Converter for Long-Range Links

The Perle SMI-100-S2ST40 converts 100BASE-TX copper signals at 100 m to 100BASE-EX single-mode fibre at 1310 nm over 40 km. It is built for network teams extending Fast Ethernet between buildings or campus sites.

Installation Uses ST Connectors

The converter uses an ST fibre interface and a standard RJ-45 copper port with a USA power cord supplied. Installers must match single-mode fibre and ST patch leads; mismatched multimode cable or SC connectors will prevent a link.

Verify Fibre Type and Distance Before Order

Confirm the existing cable plant is single-mode with ST terminations and that the total link length stays within 40 km. The copper side is limited to 100 m, so the switch port must sit within that range of the converter.
