Seamlessly Bridge Fiber and Copper Gigabit Networks
The TP-Link MC220L is a high-performance media converter engineered to bridge the gap between 1000BASE-SX/LX fiber optic and 1000Base-T copper Ethernet networks. This device provides a simple and reliable solution for extending your Gigabit Ethernet network over long distances using fiber optic cabling. Its versatile design allows it to be used as a standalone unit or integrated into TP-Link's 19-inch system chassis for broader applications.
Flexible and High-Speed Connectivity
Equipped with a hot-swappable SFP slot, the MC220L is compatible with both multi-mode and single-mode SFP modules, offering incredible flexibility for your network infrastructure. Depending on the SFP module used, this converter can extend fiber optic distances up to 550 meters with multi-mode fiber and up to 10 kilometers or more with single-mode fiber. It operates at 1000 Mbps in full-duplex mode for both its TX (copper) and FX (fiber) ports, ensuring maximum performance and data throughput. The RJ45 port features auto MDI/MDIX, eliminating the need for crossover cables, and supports auto-negotiation for 10/100/1000Mbps speeds to seamlessly integrate with various devices.
Plug-and-Play Simplicity
Designed for immediate deployment, the MC220L is a true plug-and-play device requiring no software installation or configuration. Easy-to-read front panel LED indicators provide real-time status monitoring of power and network activity on both the fiber (FX) and copper (TP) ports, simplifying installation and troubleshooting.
