Description
The Perle SMI-1000-S2ST10 is a Gigabit Ethernet IP Managed Standalone Media Converter designed to provide seamless copper-to-fiber connectivity. It converts 1000Base-T (RJ45) to 1000Base-LX/LH (ST, single-mode up to 10km or multimode up to 550m with mode conditioning cable), enabling flexible, long-distance fiber deployments.
Engineered for high performance and reliability, this converter supports advanced features such as Smart Link Pass-Through, Fiber Fault Alert, Auto-MDIX with skew correction, jumbo frame transparency, and VLAN tagging. With comprehensive management via SNMP, CLI (Telnet/SSH), browser-based GUI, and PerleVIEW, IT administrators gain complete control of their fiber links.
Designed for enterprise and carrier-grade networks, the SMI-1000-S2ST10 provides secure authentication (RADIUS, TACACS+, LDAP, Active Directory), encrypted management (SNMPv3, SSH, HTTPS), and alert/event reporting. With Perle’s lifetime warranty and free worldwide technical support, it delivers exceptional value and reliability for IT professionals.
