Product Features

Long-Distance Fiber Connectivity

The DMC-F15SC enables Ethernet networks to be extended up to 15 km using single-mode SC fiber optics. It’s ideal for connecting networks across buildings, campuses, or large industrial areas where copper cabling falls short.

Compact and Space-Saving

With a small form factor, this converter fits neatly into limited-space environments like distribution cabinets or telecom racks. It also offers the flexibility to operate as a standalone unit or be integrated into the DMC-1000 chassis.

High-Speed and Reliable Data Transmission

Supports both 10/100 Mbps speeds in half and full-duplex modes, ensuring low-latency and cut-through traffic forwarding for optimized performance across all connected devices.

Plug-and-Play Setup

Designed for immediate deployment without requiring additional software or configuration. Simply connect the Ethernet and fiber cables and power the device to start transmitting data.

Auto MDI/MDIX and Auto Negotiation

Automatically detects cable types and adjusts transmission settings, ensuring compatibility with various networking hardware without manual setup.
