## Summary description

PLANET FT-806B20 is a wired network media converter that converts 100Base-TX (RJ-45) to 100Base-FX (SC) for single-mode fiber. It supports Fast Ethernet rates (10/100 Mbps), auto-negotiation, flow control and Auto MDI/MDI-X. Optical parameters: 1550 nm wavelength, Tx power -14 to -8 dBm, sensitivity -31 dBm and reach up to 20,000 m. Metal housing, LED indicators, DC-in jack; compact and suitable for extending Ethernet links over long distances.

## Long description

The PLANET FT-806B20 is a network media converter that bridges 100BASE-FX single-mode fiber and 10/100BASE-TX shielded twisted pair (STP) Ethernet. It supports 100 Mbit/s data transfer and uses an SC fiber connector with a 1550 nm wavelength to achieve up to 20,000 m single-mode fiber distance. Housed in a metal casing and compliant with FCC Class A and CE Class A, the device offers a compact, single-fiber port solution for extending wired network links.
Advantages
The converter auto-negotiates duplex and speed on the RJ-45 STP port and supports both half- and full-duplex operation, allowing up to an effective 200 Mbps bandwidth in full-duplex mode when paired with full-duplex devices. A manual override switch lets administrators force half- or full-duplex operation on the fiber interface. The unit includes Link Fault Pass-through (LLCF/LLR) functionality with a DIP switch to enable or disable LFP, helping to immediately indicate media link failures and simplify network monitoring and troubleshooting.
Suitable for (tasks / use cases)
Extending Ethernet links over long distances via single-mode fiber (up to 20 km)
Connecting a copper Ethernet device (PC, switch or router) to a fiber backbone
Deployments requiring compact, metal-cased media conversion with regulatory compliance (FCC/CE)

How to use
Mount the FT-806B20 in a suitable indoor location and connect the 10/100BASE-TX STP copper device to the RJ-45 port. Connect the single-mode SC fiber cable (1550 nm) to the SC fiber port. Apply 5 V DC power with the specified 2 A adapter. The converter will auto-negotiate link speed and duplex on the copper side; use the fiber duplex override switch when manual control is required. Use the DIP switch to enable or disable the Link Fault Pass-through (LFP) feature according to your monitoring needs.
Usage recommendations
Use single-mode SC fiber of appropriate quality and install proper fiber connectors and strain relief. Ensure the connected copper device supports the intended duplex mode when maximizing throughput, and enable LFP for faster detection of link failures in monitored networks.
