Extend Ethernet to 12.4 Miles

The Tripp Lite N785-INT-SC-SM converts a copper RJ45 signal to singlemode fiber, extending a 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet link up to 12.4 miles (20 km). It operates at a 1310 nm wavelength using SC duplex connectors. Two converters are required to complete a point-to-point link, making it suitable for connecting separate buildings or remote facility areas.

Verify Fiber and Power Requirements

Ensure your installation uses singlemode fiber cable terminated with SC connectors, as multimode cable is not supported. Confirm that a power outlet is available at each endpoint for the included AC adapters, which ship with North America, UK, Europe and Australia plug adapters. The copper side auto-negotiates 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps speeds and handles MDI/MDIX crossover automatically.

Pair With a Second Converter for Link Completion

Each unit functions as one end of the fiber span, so a matching converter must be deployed at the far side to translate the optical signal back to copper. Six status LEDs on the front panel display Ethernet link, fiber link, speed and duplex activity for quick diagnostics. The compact metal enclosure allows desktop or wall placement near the network switch or end device.

Questions about this item

What cables and adapters come with the N785-INT-SC-SM converter?

The converter includes North America, U.K., Europe and Australia plug adapters. Singlemode fiber cable with SC connectors and copper Ethernet cable must be purchased separately.

How do I choose between singlemode and multimode versions for a 12.4 mile link?

The N785-INT-SC-SM is built for singlemode fiber only and reaches 12.4 miles at 1310 nm. A multimode model would not support that distance.

What does the 10/100/1000 Mbps rating mean when the converter is installed?

The unit auto-senses 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps speeds, handles full or half duplex automatically and configures MDI/MDIX without manual setup.
