## Summary description

This StarTech Gigabit copper-to-fiber media converter (model MCM1110SMLC20) converts 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 Ethernet to single-mode 1000Base-LX over LC fiber up to 20 km. Metal housing in black, supports 9K jumbo frames, 1310 nm wavelength and wired connectivity. Suitable for extending Ethernet links between buildings, connecting switches or IP devices over long distances. Input 100–240 V, output 5 V.

## Long description

Convert and extend a Gigabit Ethernet connection up to 20 km (12.4 miles) using single-mode LC fiber cable. This StarTech media converter converts 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 copper Ethernet to single-mode Gigabit LC fiber (1000BASE-LX) and is designed for rack, wall, or DIN-rail deployment where long-distance, secure wired connectivity is required. The unit features a compact all-metal chassis, LED status indicators, and includes a 5 V DC, 2 A power adapter for reliable operation.
Advantages
This converter increases network reach while reducing electromagnetic interference and improving data security compared with copper links. It supports IEEE 802.3 standards, full and half duplex, auto-negotiation, auto MDI/MDI-X, and 9K jumbo frames for high-performance traffic. The DIP switch enables Link Fault Passthrough (LFP) with LLCF/LLR to aid troubleshooting, and the metal housing provides robust shielding and durability for industrial or edge deployments.
Suitable for
Extending Ethernet links between buildings or across campuses
Connecting switches, routers, or IP devices over long distances
Rack, wall, or DIN-rail installations in server rooms and network closets
Government, commercial, and industrial networks requiring TAA-compliant hardware
Key specifications
Network speed: 10/100/1000 Mbps (copper) to 1 Gbps fiber
Fiber type and connector: single-mode LC
Maximum fiber range: up to 20 km (12.4 miles)
Wavelength: 1310 nm
Frame support: up to 9K jumbo frames
Duplex and negotiation: full/half duplex, auto-negotiation, auto MDI/MDI-X
Indicators and controls: LED indicators for power and link/activity; DIP switch for Link Fault Passthrough (LFP)
Chassis: compact all-metal housing, black finish
Power: external 5 V DC, 2 A power adapter
How to use
Install the converter by connecting the RJ-45 Ethernet cable from your switch or device to the copper port and an LC single-mode fiber cable to the fiber port. Configure the network devices as needed; the converter supports plug-and-play operation with auto-negotiation and MDI/MDI-X so no manual crossover is required. Use the DIP switch to enable or disable Link Fault Passthrough (LFP) depending on your monitoring and failover needs. Mount the unit on a wall, DIN rail, or in a media chassis and connect the included 5 V DC power adapter.
Usage recommendations
Use single-mode LC fiber rated for the intended distance and ensure proper fiber connectors and polishing to maintain signal quality. For mission-critical or long-distance links, verify link budget and fiber path loss, and enable LFP if you need remote fault propagation to connected network equipment.
