StarTech MCM110ST2 Multimode ST Fiber Converter to Ethernet

Convert and extend a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connection up to 1.2 miles over Multimode ST fiber cable. The 10/100 Multimode ST Fiber Ethernet Media Converter (2 km) creates a cost-effective Ethernet to fiber link, transparently converting to and from 10Base-T or 100Base-Tx Ethernet signals and 100Base-Fx optical signals to extend an Ethernet network connection over a multimode fiber backbone.

The ST media converter supports a maximum multimode fiber optic cable distance of 1.2 miles, providing a simple solution for connecting 10Base-T/100Base-Tx Ethernet networks to remote locations using ST-terminated multimode fiber, while delivering solid network performance and scalability.

Easy to setup and install, this compact, value-conscious fast Ethernet fiber media converter features auto-switching MDI and MDI-X support on the RJ45 UTP connections as well as manual controls for UTP mode, speed, Full and Half Duplex, as well as LFP (Link Fault pass-through) on/off.

This fiber media converter provides connectivity to a user or network segment that is in an isolated area of a large complex or in another building altogether. It is perfect for secure environments required by government agencies where EMI is not acceptable. The fiber to ethernet converter can connect traffic control/monitoring systems at extreme distances to the main office. It can extend network connectivity to remote areas of stadiums, auditoriums, or other venues. This converter converts 10/100Base-T Ethernet to 100Base-FX fiber optic signals over multimode fiber cable.
