TRENDnet TFC-FMSC 100Base-T to 100Base-FX Multi-Mode SC Fiber Converter

The TRENDnet TFC-FMSC is a dedicated fiber media converter designed to bridge copper-based Fast Ethernet networks with fiber optic infrastructure. It reliably converts 10/100 Mbps RJ-45 Ethernet connections to 100Base-FX multi-mode fiber, extending network distances up to 2 kilometers (1.25 miles). This device is engineered for environments such as corporate or educational campuses where network segments in different buildings need to be connected beyond the reach of traditional copper cabling. Functioning as a robust standalone unit, the converter addresses the common challenge of distance limitations in sprawling network layouts. By facilitating a media transition from electrical signals to light pulses, it ensures signal integrity and consistent performance over long hauls. The device's straightforward design allows for immediate deployment in point-to-point connections, serving as a critical link between a copper-based LAN and a fiber backbone. Housed in a compact and durable metal enclosure, the TFC-FMSC is suitable for installation in a variety of settings, from wiring closets to desktop environments. Its plug-and-play nature requires no complex configuration, and onboard LED indicators provide at-a-glance status for power, link, and activity on both the copper and fiber ports, simplifying troubleshooting for network technicians. This simple management approach ensures the device can be easily integrated and maintained within the existing network infrastructure.
