Media converter for RJ-45 to SC multi-mode

This stand-alone media converter bridges an RJ-45 copper port to an SC multi-mode fibre link operating at 850 nm. It is designed for network technicians who need to extend a Gigabit Ethernet segment beyond the reach of twisted-pair cabling. The unit weighs 1.11 lbs and requires no chassis for deployment. It suits installations where a single fibre conversion point is needed.

Distance limit of 1800 ft on multi-mode fibre

The optical budget supports links up to 1800 ft over standard multi-mode fibre at 850 nm. Runs longer than this distance will exceed the converter’s loss margin and require a different transceiver or single-mode infrastructure. The SC connector interface fixes the patch-cord type, so cabling must terminate in SC plugs. No management features are included, so link diagnostics must be handled by adjacent switches.

Highlights

  • Converts copper to fibre for extended reach
  • Multi-mode SC link spans up to 1800 ft

Questions about this item

How do I decide between the SC multi-mode version and other connector options?

This model uses an SC multi-mode connector at 850 nm; choose it when your fibre patch cables and switch ports are SC and the link distance is within 1800 ft.

What does the 1800 ft distance rating mean when the converter is installed in a live network?

It indicates the maximum reach over 850 nm multi-mode fibre with standard SC patch cords; actual distance may be shorter if connectors, splices or cable quality add loss.
