D-Link DMC-300SC 2KM Multimode Fibre Media Converter

Carry Fast Ethernet Across a Multimode Fibre Link The DMC-300SC connects a 10/100BASE-TX copper Ethernet connection to a 100BASE-FX multimode fibre link. Its integrated SC optical interface supports a suitable route up to 2KM, helping extend equipment connections beyond an ordinary copper Ethernet cable run. It can operate in its own metal enclosure or be installed in a compatible DMC-1000 chassis following the manufacturer procedure. Match the remote optical interface, fibre type and actual unit power label before installation. Highlights Multimode Fibre Extension 100BASE-FX SC interface for a suitable link up to 2KM. One RJ45 copper port and one integrated optical interface. Straightforward Copper Connection 10/100 Mbps Ethernet with auto-negotiation. Automatic MDI/MDIX copper-port adjustment. Flexible Placement Standalone operation with its matched external adapter. Compatible DMC-1000 chassis installation supported. Key Features Extend an Existing Fast Ethernet Device Use the converter where an existing copper Ethernet device needs a longer fibre connection. The multimode optical link supports up to 2KM under suitable conditions; actual reach depends on the fibre path, connectors and compatible equipment at the other end. Choose the Correct Fibre Endpoint The DMC-300SC uses 100BASE-FX multimode fibre with SC connections. Match the remote optical interface and connect transmit to receive correctly. It is not a single-fibre BiDi converter and it does not turn a 100 Mbps connection into a Gigabit link. Keep Installation Checks Visible Front-panel indicators show power, link activity, speed and duplex/collision status. These help distinguish a missing power feed, an Ethernet connection problem and an optical link that has not been established. Select Standalone or Chassis Installation For standalone use, use the supplied external adapter matching the unit input label. Installation in the compatible DMC-1000 requires the specified carrier and manufacturer procedure; the converter enclosure is removed for the chassis arrangement. Confirm the hardware revision and power label before fulfilment or installation. Summary The DMC-300SC provides a defined way to connect Fast Ethernet copper equipment over a compatible multimode fibre route. Its integrated SC optics, automatic copper-port adjustment and standalone or DMC-1000 chassis installation suit planned 2KM-class links with the correct endpoint and power arrangement. Frequently Asked Questions Which Fibre Connection Is Required?ExpandCollapse Use a compatible 100BASE-FX multimode optical endpoint and suitable SC-terminated multimode fibre. Connect each transmitter to the remote receiver. This is not a single-fibre BiDi unit. Does It Support Gigabit Ethernet?ExpandCollapse No. Its copper connection supports 10/100 Mbps and the optical link uses Fast Ethernet. Choose a Gigabit converter for a 1 Gbps application. Can It Be Installed in a DMC-1000?ExpandCollapse D-Link lists DMC-1000 chassis compatibility. Follow the manufacturer carrier and installation procedure; the standalone enclosure is removed for chassis installation. Which Power Adapter Should I Use?ExpandCollapse Use the supplied external adapter matching the unit input label. Confirm the actual hardware revision and input rating before replacing an adapter or connecting power. Will Every Fibre Run Reach 2KM?ExpandCollapse No. Up to 2KM assumes a suitable multimode path and compatible optical endpoint. Check fibre type, connector losses and the complete link design. Can It Be Used Outdoors?ExpandCollapse Use a protected equipment location within the specified 0°C to 40°C operating range. No weatherproof enclosure rating is specified. 더 보기
