Network Media Converter DeLOCK 86216

The DeLOCK 86216 Network Media Converter enables extension of an Ethernet network via optical fiber. It supports 100Base-TX and 10Base-T copper interfaces and provides a 100Base-FX fiber optic output with an SC connector. The device is designed for multi-mode fiber operation at a wavelength of 1310 nm, supports a maximum data rate of 100 Mbit/s and can transmit up to 2000 m. Typical power consumption is 2.5 W; the converter is supplied with a power adapter and user manual.

Advantages

The converter offers simple integration into existing networks, low power consumption and support for both 10 and 100 Mbit/s Ethernet speeds. With an SC fiber connector and multi-mode 1310 nm operation it allows long-distance optical links up to 2000 m while maintaining a compact black housing.

Suitable for

• Extending LAN segments over optical fiber
• Connecting copper Ethernet equipment to fiber networks
• Industrial or commercial network links requiring up to 2000 m reach

How to use

Connect the copper Ethernet cable from your switch or device to the 100Base-TX/10Base-T port and attach an SC-terminated multi-mode fiber cable to the 100Base-FX port. Plug the supplied power adapter into the converter and a mains outlet. Verify link and activity LEDs to confirm connection status. Configure connected network devices as required for 10/100 Mbit/s operation.

Recommendations

Install the converter in a ventilated, dry location away from direct heat sources. Use multi-mode fiber with SC connectors and ensure connector cleanliness to maintain optical performance. For runs approaching 2000 m, verify cable specifications and environmental conditions to ensure reliable transmission.
