MC210CS Gigabit Single-Mode Media Converter

Overview

The MC210CS Gigabit Single-Mode Media Converter is designed to extend Ethernet connections over single-mode fiber optic cables. It enables seamless 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet signal conversion between copper (RJ45) and fiber optic (SC single-mode), ensuring reliable and high-speed data transmission over distances of up to 15 km. This device is ideal for businesses requiring long-range, secure, and interference-free fiber network extensions.

How to Use / Install

  1. Unbox the MC210CS and check for included accessories (power adapter, user manual).

  2. Connect an Ethernet cable from your router, switch, or network device to the RJ45 port of the MC210CS.

  3. Connect a single-mode fiber optic cable to the SC fiber port on the MC210CS.

  4. Ensure fiber compatibility:

    • Uses single-mode fiber for long-distance connections.

    • Supports 1310 nm wavelength.

    • Transmission distance of up to 15 km.

  5. Plug in the power adapter and turn on the device.

  6. Confirm LED indicators for power, link/activity, and data transmission status.
