Managed 10/100Base-TX Media Converter Mount

The Perle SMI-110-S2LC40 is a managed media and rate converter designed for network infrastructure. It bridges 10/100BASE-TX copper links to 100BASE-EX single-mode fibre connections. Network administrators use it to extend Ethernet segments beyond standard copper distance limits. The unit includes a USA power cord for immediate deployment.

Sustained Link Performance Over Distance

The converter maintains a 100BASE-EX connection up to 40 km or 24.9 miles over 1310nm single-mode fibre with LC connectors. Copper ports support 10/100BASE-TX at 100 m or 328 ft maximum reach. Managed operation allows continuous monitoring of link status and error counters during extended uptime. Maximum frame size of 2048 bytes passes through without fragmentation.

Passive Thermal Operation and Power Profile

The device operates without active cooling fans, relying on a passively cooled metal enclosure for silent operation. Power consumption remains low, suitable for continuous duty in equipment racks or wall-mount brackets. The included USA power cord connects directly to standard mains outlets without an external brick. No audible noise is generated during normal data forwarding.

Questions about this item

Does the SMI-110-S2LC40 produce audible fan noise or noticeable heat when running continuously?

The unit has no moving parts listed in its specifications, so it operates silently and generates minimal heat during all-day use.

What cables or modules must I already have to connect the SMI-110-S2LC40 to my network?

You need an RJ-45 patch cord for the 10/100BASE-TX port and a single-mode LC fibre patch cord for the 100BASE-EX 1310 nm uplink.

Will the SMI-110-S2LC40 pass traffic from legacy 10 Mbps devices without dropping frames?

Yes, the converter handles 10/100BASE-TX auto-negotiation and supports a maximum frame size of 2048 bytes, so older 10 Mbps gear works transparently.
