StarTech 10/100 Multi Mode Fiber Copper Fast Ethernet Media Converter ST 2 km, TAA
The StarTech.com MCM110ST2 is an external multi-mode fiber optic Ethernet media converter designed to provide a reliable and cost-effective solution for extending network connections over fiber optic cables. It seamlessly converts 10Base-T or 100Base-Tx Ethernet signals to 100Base-Fx optical signals, enabling network expansion up to 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) with multimode fiber. This makes it ideal for connecting remote network segments or buildings without compromising performance or scalability.
Built for ease of use, the MCM110ST2 supports auto-negotiation on the RJ45 ports, automatically switching between MDI and MDI-X to simplify setup. Manual controls are also available for UTP mode, speed, and duplex settings, providing flexibility for diverse network environments. Additionally, it supports Link Fault Pass-through (LFP) to alert administrators of connection issues and includes LED indicators for quick network status monitoring. Compatibility with major vendors like Cisco, 3Com, Lucent, and Nortel ensures broad integration possibilities.
This media converter supports industry standards such as IEEE 802.3 10Base-T, IEEE 802.3u 100Base-TX, and 100Base-FX, and features VLAN pass-through with IEEE 802.1q, making it suitable for complex network configurations. It also supports flow control (Pause) and Q-in-Q double tagging for advanced network traffic management. Its compact, rugged design comes with a power adapter and instruction manual, backed by a two-year warranty and free lifetime technical support. Certified under EU RoHS and compliant with WEEE directives, it is an environmentally friendly choice manufactured in Taiwan for professional network deployments.
