Managed 10/100Base-TX Media Converter

The Perle SMI-110-S1SC20D is a managed media and rate converter designed for network administrators extending Ethernet links over long distances. It bridges copper and single-mode fibre infrastructure in enterprise or campus environments. The unit operates as a standalone device with an included USA power cord.

Copper RJ-45 to Single-Fibre SC Uplink

The converter features a 10/100BASE-TX RJ-45 port supporting cable runs up to 100 m or 328 ft and a 100BASE-BX SC single-mode fibre port. Wavelength-division multiplexing uses 1550 nm for transmit and 1310 nm for receive over a single fibre strand. This configuration frees up a second fibre strand compared to dual-fibre alternatives.

20 km Reach with 2048-Byte Frame Support

The single-mode fibre link reaches up to 20 km or 12.4 miles, suitable for building-to-building or metro-area connections. Maximum frame size is 2048 bytes, so jumbo frames exceeding this limit are not supported. Buyers needing longer distances or higher frame capacities should consider other models.

Questions about this item

How does the 2048-byte maximum frame size affect sustained throughput?

The converter forwards frames up to 2048 bytes; larger frames are dropped, so sustained throughput is limited to traffic that fits within that size.

What heat or noise should I expect when the unit runs continuously?

The converter has no fan and draws little power, so it runs silently and stays cool during all-day operation.

Which single-mode fiber patch cord do I need for the SC connector?

You need a single-mode SC patch cord that matches the 1550 nm TX and 1310 nm RX wavelengths used on the 20 km link.
