Gigabit Media Converter Mount
The Perle SMI-1000-M2LC2 is a mounting accessory designed for managed Gigabit media converters. It supports network installations that require reliable copper-to-fibre signal conversion in enterprise or campus environments.
Dual Interface Specifications
This unit converts 1000BASE-T over RJ-45 at 100 m (328 ft) to 1000BASE-LX at 1310 nm extended multimode over LC connectors reaching 2 km (6562 ft). The single-mode fibre distance is the specification that determines deployment reach.
Ideal for Extended Fibre Runs
Suitable for IT teams linking switches across buildings or floors where copper distance limits are exceeded. Not intended for installations needing longer single-mode reach, higher bandwidth than Gigabit, or different connector types such as SC or ST.

Questions about this item
What does the 1000BASE-T to 1000BASE-LX conversion actually give me in a live network?
It bridges copper Ethernet at 100 m or 328 ft to single-mode fibre at 1310 nm reaching 2 km or 6562 ft, so you can extend a gigabit link well beyond the copper distance limit.
Which connector standard does the fibre side use and what speed does it cap at?
The fibre port is an LC duplex connector running 1000BASE-LX, so the link tops out at gigabit speed over the 2 km extended multimode reach.
What physical space or mounting hardware does this converter need?
The unit is a standalone media converter that ships with a USA power cord; it sits on a shelf or rack tray and does not require a dedicated mounting bracket.
