D-Link DMC-1910R Gigabit Single-Fibre SC Media Converter

Extend the Network Beyond the Copper Cable The DMC-1910R converts a copper Gigabit Ethernet connection to 1000BASE-LX single-mode bidirectional SC fibre. It keeps existing copper-connected equipment in the network while providing a fibre path suited to the required route. The bidirectional design sends and receives over a single fibre strand, using complementary wavelengths at the two ends. Use it as a standalone converter with its supplied adapter, or follow the compatible DMC-1000 chassis installation instructions for a central rack installation. Fibre leads and the remote endpoint are selected for the complete link; this is a data converter rather than a PoE injector. Highlights Media Connection 1 × 1000BASE-T RJ-45 port. 1000BASE-LX single-mode bidirectional SC. TX 1310 nm; RX 1550 nm. Link Design Up to 15 km on the documented matching 15 km configuration; confirm supplied revision for longer links. Full-duplex Gigabit operation. Pair with the complementary T/R wavelength endpoint. Installation 120 × 88 × 25 mm compact housing. 5 VDC / 1 A external adapter on the documented configuration. Standalone or documented DMC-1000 chassis installation. 5-year warranty. Key Features Keep Copper Equipment on a Fibre Route The 1000BASE-T interface connects the local Ethernet equipment using a compliant twisted-pair cable. The optical side then carries the connection over the selected fibre route. This can extend a network between suitable locations without requiring every endpoint to have its own built-in fibre interface. Choose the Correct Optical Path The fixed 1000BASE-LX single-mode bidirectional SC interface must connect to an appropriate fibre cable and matching remote device. The R and T units use opposite transmit and receive wavelengths so both directions can share one strand. Use Full-Duplex Gigabit Ethernet The converter supports a 1 Gbps link in each direction under the supported operating conditions. Manufacturer references to 2000 Mbps full-duplex transfer describe the aggregate of both directions, rather than a 2GbE port speed. The complete link is limited by its endpoints, selected media and cable installation. Install for the Size of the Site Start with a standalone unit and the correct external adapter. For a central installation, the documented DMC-1000 procedure removes the converter housing and mounts the board on the chassis carrier. Chassis compatibility and service instructions must match the exact converter configuration. See Link Status During Troubleshooting Power and link/activity indicators provide a quick local check during commissioning and service. Verify both copper and optical sides when diagnosing a missing connection. Supported link-loss functions can help carry a fault indication to the adjacent equipment when configured correctly. Complete the Connection Deliberately Select the fibre lead, remote endpoint and matched power adapter for the installation. Confirm the supplied hardware configuration and optical distance before committing a longer route; manufacturer specifications vary between revisions and regions. It does not supply PoE power or replace the firewall and security controls on the surrounding network. Summary The DMC-1910R provides a compact bridge between copper Ethernet and the specified fibre interface. Match the media and remote endpoint, use the correct power adapter and test the complete link before putting it into service. Frequently Asked Questions Does It Include an Optical Transceiver?ExpandCollapse Its fixed optical interface is built in. Fibre patch leads and the matching remote endpoint are selected separately. What Fibre Does It Use?ExpandCollapse 1000BASE-LX single-mode bidirectional SC. TX 1310 nm; RX 1550 nm. How Far Can the Fibre Link Run?ExpandCollapse Up to 15 km on the documented matching 15 km configuration; confirm supplied revision for longer links. There are also manufacturer configurations rated at 10 km, so confirm the supplied revision and both endpoints before using a longer route. Do I Need the Opposite R or T Unit?ExpandCollapse Normally use the complementary DMC-1910T or another correctly matching bidirectional endpoint. Transmit and receive wavelengths must be opposite at the two ends. Can It Be Installed in a Chassis?ExpandCollapse The manufacturer documents installation in the DMC-1000 chassis, following the board and carrier procedure for the exact converter. The chassis provides module power after installation. Which Power Adapter Should I Use?ExpandCollapse 5 VDC / 1 A external adapter on the documented configuration. Do not substitute an adapter based only on connector fit. Check the device label and supplied adapter voltage before connecting power. 더 보기
