Transition Networks M/E-PSW-FX-02(SC)-NA Media Converter

Product Description

The TRANSITION NETWORKS M/E-PSW-FX-02(SC)-NA is a mini media converter designed to bridge copper Ethernet and fiber optic network segments. It converts 10/100BASE-TX twisted-pair connections to 100BASE-FX fiber using an SC connector interface. This unit is suited for installations where extending network runs beyond copper distance limits or adding fiber isolation between segments is required. Network technicians and low-voltage installers deploy this converter in both wall-mount and rack-adjacent configurations.

This converter is used in commercial and light industrial network environments where a copper-to-fiber transition is needed at the edge of a network segment. Typical applications include connecting copper-based switches or endpoints to fiber backbone runs. The SC fiber interface makes it compatible with standard single-mode or multimode fiber patch cables commonly found in structured cabling installations.

Key Features

• Converts 10/100BASE-TX copper to 100BASE-FX fiber for extended network runs
• SC fiber connector interface for compatibility with standard fiber patch cables
• Mini form factor suits space-constrained installations
• Supports both 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps copper-side speeds
• Sold as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install media converter for 10/100BASE-TX to 100BASE-FX copper-to-fiber conversion applications using SC-type fiber connectors.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or network cabling professional. Power down or disconnect the connected network equipment before attaching or removing the converter. Verify fiber strand type and connector polish before mating to avoid signal loss. Follow applicable structured cabling standards and local low-voltage codes during installation.
