Extends a Gigabit Ethernet Signal Up to 550 Meters via SC Multimode Fiber Cable

With Tripp Lite’s economical N785-INT-SC-MM Gigabit Multimode Fiber to Ethernet Media Converter, you can extend a 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet signal up to 550 meters (1,804 ft.) without the limitations of Cat5e/6 UTP cabling. Because Cat5e/6 cables are limited to only 100 meters, it is more effective to use SC multimode fiber optic cabling for greater distances.

Typical Applications

  • Extending a network up to 550 meters in a large office, church or convention center
  • Providing network connectivity to employees in a secluded area of a facility
  • Connecting office workstations to a distantly located switch


Supports Auto-Sensing of Network Speed and Other Advanced Functions

Monitoring and controlling your network nodes is easy with the N785-INT-SC-MM’s advanced features, such as automatic network speed sensing, full/half-duplex auto-detection and automatic MDI/MDI-X configuration. Six LEDs indicate the converter’s Ethernet network and fiber link status at a glance.

Supports Both 50/125 and 62.5/125 Multimode Cable

Use copper UTP cabling to connect one 850 nm N785-INT-SC-MM converter to your network device, such as a computer, and another converter to a network switch. The two converters are connected by a multimode fiber optic cable with SC connectors. The N785-INT-SC-MM supports 50/125 multimode cable up to 550 meters and 62.5/125 multimode cable up to 400 meters (1,312 ft.).

Easy to Install with Plug-and-Play Operation

With no software or drivers required for installation, the N785-INT-SC-MM is completely plug-and-play. Featuring a durable metal housing, this compact fiber-to-copper media converter can be placed wherever a standard AC power outlet is available, and does not have to be near a computer, server or other signal source. It includes an external power supply with international plug adapters for North America (NEMA 5-15P), the United Kingdom (BS 1363), Europe (CEE 7/16 Schuko) and Australia (AS/NZS 3112).



Comes Backed by a Two-Year Warranty

The N785-INT-SC-MM comes with a two-year warranty. It’s manufactured in compliance with strict RoHS specifications, reflecting Tripp Lite’s commitment to environmental responsibility.
