## Summary description

The PLANET FT-806A20 is a wired network media converter that converts 100Base-TX copper Ethernet to 100Base-FX single-mode fiber with an SC connector. It supports full duplex, auto-negotiation and Auto MDI/MDI-X, 100 Mbit/s data rate and up to 20 km range (1310 nm). Metal housing, LED indicators and external 5 V/2 A power adapter included. Operating 0–50 °C.

## Long description

The PLANET FT-806A20 is a Fast Ethernet media converter that converts 100BASE-FX fiber to 10/100BASE-TX shielded twisted pair (STP). It uses a single-mode 1310 nm fiber port with SC connector and supports a maximum transfer distance of 20,000 m and a data rate up to 100 Mbit/s. Housed in a metal enclosure and compatible with 100–240 V input, the FT-806A20 is designed for reliable long-distance Ethernet extension between fiber and copper networks.
Advantages
The converter auto-negotiates half- and full-duplex operation on the STP port and adapts to the highest performance supported by the connected device, delivering either nominal 100 Mbps or effective 200 Mbps in full-duplex scenarios. It provides versatile single-mode fiber connectivity with SC connector, a robust metal housing for durability, and universal AC input. Link Fault Pass-through (LFP) with LLCF/LLR functions and a DIP switch for enabling/disabling LFP allow prompt fault detection and simple monitoring of link status.
Suitable for
Extending Ethernet networks over long single-mode fiber runs up to 20 km
Connecting fiber backbone to copper switches, routers or workstations with STP cabling
Environments requiring reliable metal-housed converters and AC power compatibility
Network setups where link-fault monitoring (LLCF/LLR) is required

How to use
Install the FT-806A20 on a stable surface and connect AC power (100–240 V). Insert the SC single-mode fiber into the fiber port and attach the STP copper cable to the 10/100BASE-TX port. The converter will auto-negotiate duplex and speed with the connected copper device; use the fiber duplex override switch if manual control is required. Use the DIP switch to enable or disable the Link Fault Pass-through (LLCF/LLR) feature as needed for network monitoring.
Usage recommendations
For reliable long-distance links, verify fiber type and connector cleanliness before connection, ensure both ends use compatible single-mode transceivers at 1310 nm, and enable LFP when remote link-fault visibility is required.
