Perle 10/100 Fast Ethernet Converter

The Perle SMI-110-M1SC2D is a managed media and rate converter for 10/100Base-TX and 100Base-BX network links. It suits network engineers who need copper-to-fibre translation with IP-based management in enterprise or campus environments. This unit is not for buyers who require Gigabit or 10 Gigabit throughput. It also does not fit networks that rely solely on unmanaged switching.

Check copper port and fibre wavelength

Verify that your existing infrastructure uses 10/100Base-TX on the copper side and a compatible 100Base-BX wavelength on the fibre side. Confirm that the management platform supports IP-based configuration for this converter. Ensure a suitable power source is available for the included universal AC/DC adapter. Do not assume compatibility with higher-speed or different fibre standards.

Universal AC/DC adapter included

The bundled universal AC/DC adapter powers the converter from standard mains supplies without a separate power brick. This simplifies deployment in racks or remote cabinets where DC power may be absent. The adapter does not add network ports or management software beyond the converter's built-in IP interface.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the SMI-110-M1SC2D and do I need to buy anything else?

The box contains the SMI-110-M1SC2D converter and a universal AC/DC adapter. No extra items are required for basic operation.

Which network technology version should I choose for my link?

The unit supports 10/100Base-TX on the copper side and 100Base-BX on the fibre side, so select it when you need a 100 Mbps single-fibre connection.

What does the 10/100 rating mean once the converter is installed in a rack?

It will pass traffic at either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps on the twisted-pair port while the fibre port runs at a fixed 100 Mbps, matching the speed of the connected switch.
