Convertidor de medios TP-Link MC110CS 10/100Mbps, 1000 Mbit/s, conector SC

The TP-Link MC110CS is a single-mode media converter that converts between 100BASE-FX fiber and 100BASE-TX copper connections. Compliant with IEEE 802.3u standards and equipped with an SC-type fiber connector, the unit operates at a wavelength of 1310 nm and supports long-distance transmission over single-mode fiber up to 20 kilometers. The device can be used as a standalone converter or mounted in a compatible 19" TP-Link chassis, and includes front-panel LEDs for status indication.

Advantages

The MC110CS provides wire-speed forwarding for 100 Mbps Ethernet over fiber using LX longwave laser optics and supports Auto MDI/MDI-X and auto-negotiation on the TX (RJ-45) port. Its single SC fiber port and one RJ-45 copper port make installation straightforward, while LEDs for power and link/speed simplify monitoring. Low power consumption and the option to operate standalone or in a TP-Link chassis add deployment flexibility.

Suitable for

• Extending 100 Mbps Ethernet networks over single-mode fiber links up to 20 km
• Connecting fiber backbone to copper switches or routers
• Small installations requiring a standalone media converter or integration into a 19" chassis

How to use

Connect the single-mode SC fiber cable to the SC port and the copper Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port. If used standalone, power the unit from its external adapter (follow manufacturer power specifications). If installed in a TP-Link 19" chassis, insert the module into the chassis slot and provide chassis power. The device negotiates duplex and cross-over (Auto MDI/MDI-X) on the TX port automatically; monitor the front-panel LEDs to confirm power and link status.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber with SC connectors and ensure correct fiber polarity when connecting links. For reliable long-distance links up to 20 km, use compliant single-mode fiber and clean connectors before mating. Place the converter in a ventilated location and avoid exposure to excessive dust or moisture.
