TP-Link MC100CM Media Converter

TP-Link MC100CM | Multi-Mode Fibre to Ethernet Converter

The TP-Link MC100CM network media converter 100 Mbit/s 1310 nm Multi-mode Black is designed to bridge 100BASE-FX fibre optic networks with 100Base-TX copper Ethernet infrastructure. Built for industrial and commercial environments, it supports up to 2km transmission over multi-mode fibre, making it ideal for extending network reach without signal degradation.

Key Specifications

Reliable Multi-Mode Fibre Connectivity

The MC100CM enables seamless integration between fibre and copper networks by supporting IEEE 802.3u standards for both 10/100Base-TX and 100Base-FX. With its 1310 nm wavelength and SC-Type connector, it delivers stable data transmission over multi-mode fibre up to 2km. Auto MDI/MDI-X and duplex auto-negotiation ensure plug-and-play compatibility with existing network hardware.

Compact Design for Easy Deployment

Measuring just 95 x 73 x 27 mm and weighing minimal, this converter fits neatly into tight spaces without disrupting airflow or rack layout. Its black metal chassis is built for durability, while LED indicators provide clear status monitoring. The device operates reliably in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C, making it suitable for both office and industrial environments.

Low Power, High Efficiency

With a maximum power draw of only 2.4 W, the MC100CM offers energy-efficient operation without compromising performance. This low consumption reduces heat output and operational costs, particularly beneficial in deployments with multiple units or in remote locations where power availability is limited.
