Eaton Tripp Lite Series N784-H01-SCSM Hardened Copper to Fiber Media Converter for Extended Network Connectivity

Eaton Tripp Lite Series Hardened Copper to Fiber Media Converter - 10/100 Mbps, RJ45/SC Singlemode, -10° to 60°C, 30 km (18.6 mi.), TAA

The Eaton Tripp Lite N784-H01-SCSM media converter provides a reliable solution for extending your network over long distances using singlemode fiber optic cables. Designed specifically for environments requiring durable and high-performance connectivity, this transceiver converts a standard copper Ethernet signal to a singlemode fiber optic signal, allowing data transmission up to 30 kilometers (approximately 18.6 miles). This capability addresses the limitations of traditional copper cables, which are typically restricted to 100 meters, by enabling seamless communication between network devices such as switches and hubs located far apart. The device supports 10/100Base-TX technology, offering data transfer rates of up to 100 Mbps, making it suitable for various enterprise and industrial applications where extended reach is essential. Its auto-negotiation and automatic MDI/MDI-X features facilitate plug-and-play installation, eliminating the need for crossover cables and simplifying network setup. The converter's robust metal housing is constructed from hardened aluminum, designed to withstand extreme temperatures from -10 to 60 degrees Celsius (14 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit). It offers protection against electrostatic discharge, radio frequency interference, and power surges, ensuring reliable operation in challenging environments. This model includes comprehensive monitoring features such as link fault signaling and loopback functions, which help diagnose network issues by indicating cable severance or disruptions and verifying correct installation. The unit's LED indicators provide real-time status updates on network speed, connection quality, power, and diagnostic functions, allowing for easy troubleshooting. The N784-H01-SCSM is wall-mountable and can be integrated into larger network setups using the optional DIN rail kit or the Tripp Lite N785-CH12 chassis, which supports up to 12 converters for organized installation. Additionally, it is TAA-compliant, making it eligible for GSA Schedule contracts and other federal procurement programs. The device ships with a comprehensive package that includes the media converter, mounting hardware, external power supply, and quick start guide, ensuring straightforward deployment. Its environmentally friendly design complies with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE), and it is manufactured in Taiwan by Eaton Corporation, a trusted provider of network infrastructure solutions. This media converter is ideal for expanding network reach and ensuring resilient communication links in demanding operational environments, providing a cost-effective and durable solution for long-distance fiber optic networking needs.
