Micro Mini Media Converter for Gigabit Links

The Black Box Corporation LMC4002A bridges 10/100/1000Base-TX copper to 1000Base-X multimode fibre. It supports an 850 nm wavelength over duplex SC connectors up to 1640.42 ft. The wall-mountable unit measures .8 by 1.8 by 2.3 inches and weighs 2.50 oz. An AC adapter is included.

Suited for Short-Range Fibre Uplinks

This converter suits installers extending a single copper port to multimode fibre within a building. It is not for buyers who need managed switching features or multiple network ports. The unit lacks a management port and DVI or USB connectivity. It also does not support single-mode fibre or distances beyond the rated half-kilometre reach.

Integrates with Existing Copper and Fibre Runs

The device accepts twisted-pair cable on one RJ-45 port and duplex SC patch cords on the fibre side. Power comes from the supplied AC adapter, so no PoE infrastructure is required. Its compact form factor frees rack space and allows discreet placement in wall boxes or cabinets. The package includes the converter and power adapter only.

Questions about this item

Do I need a separate AC power outlet for the converter?

Yes, the unit ships with an external AC adapter that plugs into a standard mains socket.

Will my existing 10/100/1000Base-TX copper switch connect directly to the RJ-45 port?

Yes, the single RJ-45 port auto-negotiates 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps twisted-pair links.

How can I confirm the fibre link is active after installation?

Check the front-panel LEDs; a steady link light on the SC port means the 850 nm multimode connection is up.
