Mediamuunnin TP-Link MC210CS, Gigabit, 1000 Mbit/s, SC-liitin

The MC210CS media converter converts 1000BASE-LX/LH single-mode fiber to 1000BASE-T copper or vice versa. It complies with IEEE 802.3ab and IEEE 802.3z standards, uses an SC-type connector and operates at 1310 nm wavelength. The device supports full wire-speed forwarding and can function as a stand-alone unit or mounted in TP-LINK 19" system chassis.

Advantages

The MC210CS extends network links over single-mode fiber up to 15 km and supports switch configuration of Force/Auto transfer mode for the fiber (FX) port. Front panel LEDs provide status indication, and the copper (TX) port offers Auto MDI/MDI-X for simplified connection to switches and hosts.

Key specifications

• Standards: IEEE 802.3ab (1000Base-T), IEEE 802.3z (1000Base-LX/LH)
• Fiber type: Single-mode (SC connector)
• Wavelength: 1310 nm
• Maximum fiber distance: up to 15 km
• Copper port: 1000Base-T with Auto MDI/MDI-X
• Mode: Supports Force/Auto transfer mode for FX port
• Operation: Full wire-speed forwarding
• Mounting: Stand-alone or TP-LINK 19" chassis compatible

How to use

Install the MC210CS by connecting the single-mode SC fiber cable to the FX port and the Ethernet cable to the TX port. Configure the FX port transfer mode to Force or Auto according to the connected device. Power the unit, verify link LEDs on the front panel, and confirm normal operation at gigabit speeds over fiber up to 15 km.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber with SC connectors and verify transceiver settings on connected switches. For rack installations, mount the converter in TP-LINK 19" chassis; for isolated links, operate it as a stand-alone device. Ensure connectors and fiber segments are clean to maintain signal quality.
