TP-Link Gigabit SFP -mediamuunnin MC220L, 1000 Mbit/s, monimuotokuitu, yksimuotokuitu

The TP-LINK MC220L is a standalone media converter that converts 1000BASE-SX/LX/LH fiber signals to 1000BASE-T copper or vice versa. It complies with IEEE 802.3ab and IEEE 802.3z standards and uses an SC-type fiber connector. The converter supports multimode operation at 850 nm and single-mode at 1310 nm, providing full wire-speed forwarding for Gigabit Ethernet connections and offering extended fiber reach.

Advantages

The MC220L provides a compact solution for connecting fiber and copper Gigabit networks without requiring a chassis. It supports hot-swappable FX modules, Auto MDI/MDI-X on the TX port for easy connection to various devices, and front-panel LEDs for status monitoring. The device supports multimode fiber distances up to 0.55 km and single-mode fiber distances up to 10 km.

Key specifications

• Standards: IEEE 802.3ab (1000Base-T), IEEE 802.3z (1000Base-SX/LX/LH)
• Fiber connector: SC-Type
• Fiber wavelengths: 850 nm (multimode), 1310 nm (single-mode)
• Maximum multimode distance: 0.55 km
• Maximum single-mode distance: 10 km
• TX port: 1000Base-T copper with Auto MDI/MDI-X
• Form factor: Standalone or compatible with TP-LINK 19" chassis
• Front panel: Status LEDs

How to use

Install the MC220L as a standalone unit or slide it into a compatible TP-LINK 19" chassis. Connect the fiber cable to the SC fiber port and the copper Ethernet cable to the TX RJ45 port. Ensure the fiber type matches the module configuration (multimode for 850 nm or single-mode for 1310 nm). Power on the unit and verify link/activity via the front-panel LEDs. For hot-swappable FX modules, remove or insert modules only when recommended by the vendor and following proper grounding and ESD precautions.

Recommendations

Use appropriate fiber cable type and quality for the required distance (multimode up to 0.55 km, single-mode up to 10 km). Verify compatibility with connected network equipment and follow ESD and installation guidelines when handling hot-swappable modules.
