Verkon mediamuunnin ROLINE 21.13.1132 100 Mbit/s 100Base-TX 100Base-FX

The ROLINE 21.13.1132 is a compact network media converter that converts a Fast Ethernet TP port (RJ45) to multimode fiber optic with an SC connector. It supports 100 Mbit/s data transfer and provides a straightforward solution for linking 100Base-TX copper networks to 100Base-FX fiber segments in environments that require optical cabling.

Advantages

The converter offers a simple one-to-one conversion between copper and multimode fiber, occupying minimal space and requiring no complex configuration. With a standard SC fiber connector and Fast Ethernet support, it ensures compatibility with common network equipment and stable 100 Mbit/s communication. Its compact, black enclosure and low weight make it suitable for installations with limited rack or shelf space.

Suitable for

• Extending a 100 Mbit/s Ethernet network over multimode fiber
• Connecting copper-based switches or routers to fiber optic links
• Linking separate network segments in offices, schools, and small data closets
• Environments where electrical isolation or longer distance fiber runs are required

Key specifications

• Maximum data transfer rate: 100 Mbit/s
• Ethernet port: 1 x 100Base-TX (RJ45)
• Fiber port: 100Base-FX with SC connector (multimode)
• Ethernet interface type: Fast Ethernet
• Product colour: Black
• Weight: 0.15 kg

How to use

Connect the RJ45 cable from your switch or router to the converter's 100Base-TX port and attach a multimode fiber cable with an SC connector to the 100Base-FX port. Power the device according to the manufacturer's instructions (external power adapter or integrated power input as applicable). Once connected, verify link/activity LEDs on the converter and the connected equipment to confirm a successful connection at 100 Mbit/s.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber of the appropriate grade (e.g., OM1–OM4) and ensure SC connectors are clean and properly seated. Keep copper and fiber cabling separated where required for cable management and safety. Verify compatibility with existing network equipment and configure link settings on connected devices if necessary.
