Description

Black Box LMC213A-MMST-R2 Fast Ethernet Media Converter

Overview

The Black Box LMC213A-MMST-R2 is a Fast Ethernet media converter designed to bridge the gap between copper Ethernet cabling and multimode fiber optic cabling. This unit operates at 100-MBPS on both the copper and fiber interfaces, making it suitable for extending network segments in industrial environments or connecting devices where fiber optic infrastructure is already in place. Its specific application is to connect a 100-MBPS copper Ethernet device or switch port to a 100-MBPS multimode fiber network, enabling longer transmission distances than copper alone can support. This model is ideal for connecting surveillance cameras or other network devices at the edge of a facility to a central network switch.

Compatibility

This media converter is compatible with any standard 100-MBPS copper Ethernet device or switch port using an RJ-45 connector. The multimode fiber port uses SC connectors and is designed for 100-MBPS transmission over multimode fiber, supporting distances up to 2 kilometers. It is suitable for integration with various network infrastructure components, including managed and unmanaged switches, and devices that require a 100-MBPS Ethernet connection where fiber extension is necessary.

Installation Notes

The LMC213A-MMST-R2 requires a 5VDC power supply (sold separately). Ensure the power supply is rated appropriately for the converter's consumption. The unit supports standard plug-and-play installation for the Ethernet side. The fiber optic connection requires appropriate multimode fiber optic patch cables with SC connectors. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F), limiting its use in extreme environments without additional climate control.
