Single-strand fibre mount

The Perle C-100-S1Sc40U is a media converter mount designed for network infrastructure. It connects copper Ethernet to single-mode fibre over a single strand. The unit suits installers who need long-distance links in a compact form factor.

Installers needing 40 km reach

This mount suits teams extending LANs across campuses or between buildings where copper distance limits are exceeded. It is not for environments that require multi-strand fibre or shorter-reach multimode connections.

40 km single-mode headroom

The converter handles 100Base-TX over RJ-45 up to 100 m and 100Base-BX over SC single-mode fibre up to 40 km. Wavelengths are 1310 nm TX and 1550 nm RX. Bandwidth caps at 100 Mbps, so gigabit or 10 Gbps needs are not met.

Questions about this item

What must I already have to use the 100Base-BX single-strand SC fiber link?

You need a matching 100Base-BX module that transmits at 1550 nm and receives at 1310 nm, plus a single-mode SC patch cord long enough for the 40 km span.

Can I keep my 100 m copper segment when adding this converter?

Yes, the RJ-45 port supports 100Base-TX up to 100 m, so existing copper cabling stays in place while the fiber side reaches 40 km.

How do I confirm the link is operating at the rated 40 km distance?

Verify both the TX 1310 nm and RX 1550 nm LEDs are solid green and that the copper link LED shows 100 Mbps full-duplex.
