Netwerk-mediaconverter TP-Link Omada MC212CS-2 — Singlemode SC/UPC, 1x RJ-45 Gigabit, 1550 nm, 1 Gbit/s, 2 km

MC212CS-2 is a gigabit media converter that provides one gigabit RJ-45 port and one gigabit SC fiber port to convert electrical Ethernet signals to optical signals and vice versa. The TP-Link Omada MC212CS-2 supports single-mode fiber connections with a maximum data transfer rate of 1000 Mbit/s and a maximum transfer distance of 2000 m, and includes LED indicators for activity, link and power.

Advantages

The MC212CS-2 enables reliable long-distance network extension over single-mode fiber while preserving Gigabit Ethernet speeds on the copper side. Its compact black enclosure and standard SC/UPC fiber connector make it compatible with common networking environments. Built-in LEDs provide simple status monitoring of link, activity and power.

Suitable for

• Extending network links between buildings or across a campus up to 2000 m
• Park and campus security monitoring systems that require fiber backhaul
• Wireless network backhaul and access point connections where fiber run is needed

How to use

Connect the Ethernet device or switch to the RJ-45 port and connect the single-mode fiber cable with an SC/UPC connector to the SC fiber port. Power the media converter and verify the LED indicators for power, link and activity to ensure proper operation. The device automatically converts between electrical and optical signals at supported speeds.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber compatible with SC/UPC connectors and ensure fiber runs do not exceed the specified 2000 m. Place the converter in a dry, ventilated area and avoid exposure to extreme temperatures. For best results, use proper cable management and check LED indicators to troubleshoot connectivity issues.
