SC Multimode Media Converter

The Tripp Lite SC Multimode Media Converter links a copper Ethernet segment to a multimode fibre run at gigabit speeds. It suits installers who need to extend a 10/100/1000Base-T network over 1000Base-SX fibre up to 550 metres.

Compatibility Check

Verify that the far-end equipment also uses 1000Base-SX optics at 850 nm with SC connectors. Confirm the fibre patch cables are multimode and that the switch port negotiates 10/100/1000Base-T on the RJ-45 side.

Thermals and Power

The desktop enclosure relies on passive convection and operates silently without a fan. Power draw is modest for a media converter of this class. The unit weighs 0.8000 and was first listed by the manufacturer on 17 August 2026.

Questions about this item

Does the SC multimode media converter include the SC patch cables or SFP module, or must they be purchased separately?

The unit provides one SC multimode port and one RJ-45 port; SC patch cables and any SFP module are not included and must be sourced separately.

Should I choose this 850 nm 550 m model or a different wavelength for my link?

This converter operates at 850 nm with a 550 m reach on multimode fibre; select it when your link distance is within 550 m and the existing fibre plant uses 850 nm optics.

What does the 10/100/1000 RJ-45 rating mean for actual throughput on my network?

The RJ-45 port auto-negotiates at 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps, so a connected device will run at the highest speed both ends support, up to 1000 Mbps full duplex.
