StarTech MCM1110SMLC20 Single-Mode LC Fiber Media Converter
Overview
The StarTech MCM1110SMLC20 is a standalone fiber media converter designed to extend your existing 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet network over single-mode fiber optic cable. This device is crucial for bridging longer distances where standard copper Ethernet cannot reach, making it ideal for connecting network segments across large facilities, campuses, or between buildings. Its standalone form factor allows for flexible placement, and it supports full or half-duplex operation, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network devices. The MCM1110SMLC20 model specifically supports single-mode fiber with an LC duplex connector, reaching up to 20 kilometers (12.4 miles).
Compatibility
This media converter is designed to interface with standard 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet devices that utilize an RJ-45 connector. It functions as a transparent bridge, meaning it does not require specific software or drivers for operation and is compatible with any network infrastructure adhering to IEEE 802.3ab, IEEE 802.3z, IEEE 802.3, and IEEE 802.3u standards. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 2 Gbps and can handle jumbo frames up to 9K, ensuring efficient data transmission for demanding applications, including surveillance video streams.
Installation Notes
The unit operates within an ambient temperature range of 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F) and requires 5~95% RH non-condensing humidity. It is powered by an included AC adapter (100-240V AC input, 5V DC/2A output). The compact dimensions (70mm x 94mm x 94mm) and lightweight design (0.0 kg) facilitate easy placement. Ensure the fiber optic cable used is single-mode with LC duplex connectors and does not exceed the 20 km transmission distance for optimal performance.
