Network Media Converter Trendnet TI-F10SC

The TRENDnet TI-F10SC is a compact network media converter designed to connect 100Base-TX copper Ethernet to 100Base-FX multi-mode fiber. Housed in a robust metal casing with an IP40 rating, the converter supports data transmission at up to 200 Mbit/s and can bridge links over distances up to 2,000 m using an SC fiber connector. It accepts a wide input voltage range and is intended for use in industrial and building-to-building networking scenarios; a separate power supply (model TI-M6024) is required.

Advantages

The TI-F10SC provides reliable copper-to-fiber conversion with a small footprint and hardened components for industrial environments. Its multi-mode 1310 nm fiber interface and SC connector enable long-distance links up to 2 km while maintaining Fast Ethernet speeds. The unit includes DIN-rail and wall-mount hardware for flexible installation and features low power consumption and a durable metal housing.

Suitable for

• Extending Ethernet networks between buildings
• Long-distance links within industrial facilities
• Converting 100Base-TX copper ports to 100Base-FX fiber
• Environments requiring DIN-rail or wall mounting

How to use

Install the TI-F10SC on a DIN rail or mount it to a wall using the included hardware. Connect the copper Ethernet device to the RJ-45 port and the multi-mode fiber cable with an SC connector to the fiber port. Provide power using a compatible TRENDnet power supply (model TI-M6024) or another suitable 12–60 V source. After power-up, verify link/activity LEDs and confirm network connectivity at 10/100 Mbit/s.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber rated for 1310 nm and observe fiber handling best practices. For stable operation in industrial environments, mount the converter securely, ensure the power source is within the specified voltage range, and keep fiber connectors clean and protected from moisture and dust.
