Network bridge for fibre-to-copper links

The PLANET FT-806B20 converts 10/100Base-TX twisted-pair signals to 100Base-FX single-mode fibre using WDM bi-directional optics. It suits ISPs, campuses and enterprises deploying FTTH, FTTC or FTTB connections up to twenty kilometres. The unit auto-negotiates half or full duplex on the copper port and can be forced manually on the fibre side. Operating temperature ranges from zero to fifty degrees Celsius.

AC adapter and SC connector simplify deployment

A 100-240V AC adapter supplying five volts at two amps is included, removing the need for a separate DC source. The SC single-mode interface carries transmit at 1550nm and receive at 1310nm over one fibre strand. No software or licence keys are bundled; the converter is purely hardware-driven. Humidity tolerance of five to ninety percent non-condensing suits indoor cabinet installation.

Plug-and-play install with duplex-mismatch caution

Connect the SC fibre, the RJ-45 copper link and the AC adapter; the device powers on immediately. The most common issue is a duplex mismatch when the attached switch or workstation forces a different mode, cutting effective bandwidth from two hundred to one hundred megabits per second. Use the manual fibre-port setting to lock full duplex when the partner device supports it. No configuration utility or firmware update is required.

Questions about this item

Does the SC connector on the FT-806B20 need periodic cleaning to keep the 20 km link stable?

Yes, the SC single-mode WDM interface should be inspected and cleaned with a lint-free wipe and isopropyl alcohol whenever the link is re-patched, because dust on the 1310 nm RX or 1550 nm TX faces can attenuate the 20 km path.

What thermal limit is reached first when the converter runs continuously at 50 °C ambient?

The operating ceiling is 50 °C; above that the internal components exceed their rated temperature range, so sustained full-load operation at the maximum ambient is the first thermal boundary.

How much heat does the unit add to a rack when powered from the 5 V DC 2 A adapter all day?

The 5 V DC, 2 A supply draws up to 10 W from the 100-240 V AC source, so the converter dissipates roughly 10 W of heat continuously.
