的详细介绍
MOXA IMC-21A-S-SC-T Industrial Ethernet-to-Fiber Media Converter

The MOXA IMC-21A-S-SC-T is a rugged entry-level media converter designed to reliably extend Ethernet networks over long distances in harsh industrial environments. It converts 10/100BaseT(X) copper signals to 100BaseFX fiber optics, featuring a single-mode SC fiber port and wide -40°C to 75°C operating temperature for demanding applications .
Key Features and Product Highlights
-
Copper to Fiber Conversion: 1x 10/100BaseT(X) RJ45 port (auto negotiation, MDI/MDI-X) and 1x 100BaseFX single-mode fiber port with SC connector .
-
Long-Distance Transmission: Single-mode fiber supports transmission distances up to 40 km at 1310 nm wavelength, ideal for connecting remote sites and spanning large facilities .
-
Extended Temperature Range: Rated for -40°C to 75°C operating temperature (-T model), ensuring reliable performance in extreme outdoor and industrial environments .
-
Link Fault Pass-Through (LFPT): Immediately notifies the link partner of a fiber fault, enabling rapid network diagnostics and minimizing downtime .
-
Rugged Industrial Design: Metal IP30 housing, DIN-rail mounting, and compact dimensions (30 x 125 x 79 mm) for easy installation in control cabinets .
-
