Perle CM-100-S2ST20 Media Converter Mount

The Perle CM-100-S2ST20 is a mounting accessory designed for Perle managed Fast Ethernet media converter modules. It secures the converter hardware within a rack or enclosure for network infrastructure deployments. This unit supports the physical installation of the conversion equipment.

Network installers needing secure module mounting

This mount suits technicians installing Perle media converters that bridge 100BASE-TX RJ-45 links over 100 m to 100Base-LX 1310 nm single-mode ST fibre spans up to 20 km. It is not for users requiring PoE injector housings, DIN-rail brackets, or enclosures for unmanaged converter variants.

Rack integration for managed fibre links

The bracket accommodates the converter module handling 100BASE-TX to 100Base-LX conversion across 328 ft copper and 12.4 miles single-mode fibre. It provides mechanical stability for managed or unmanaged operation modes. Headroom ends when the installation demands a different form factor, higher port density, or environmental hardening not addressed by this specific mount.

Questions about this item

What network speed must my existing switch port support to use the 100BASE-TX RJ-45 interface on this converter?

Your switch port must operate at 100 Mbps to match the 100BASE-TX RJ-45 interface on this converter module.

Can I keep using my current single-mode fibre patch cables with ST connectors on the 1310nm 20 km uplink?

Yes, the 100Base-LX 1310nm single-mode ST interface works with standard single-mode patch cables terminated with ST connectors.

How do I confirm the link is active after connecting the RJ-45 and ST fibre cables?

Verify the link LEDs show solid green for both the 100BASE-TX copper port and the 100Base-LX fibre port once cables are seated.
