Description

The MC220L is a media converter designed to convert 1000BASE-SX/LX/LH fiber to 1000Base-T copper media or vice versa. Designed under IEEE802.3ab 1000Base-T and IEEE802.3z 1000Base-SX/LX/LH standards, the MC220L is designed for use with multi-mode/single-mode fiber cable utilizing the SC/LC-Type connector. It works at 850nm on both transmitting and receiving data when adopting multi- mode fiber and 1310nm on both transmitting and receiving data when adopting single-mode. Other features of this module include the ability to be used as a stand alone device (no chassis required) or with TP-LINK's 19"system chassis, Auto MDI/MDI-X for TX port, and front panel status LEDs. The MC220L will transmit at extended fiber optic distances utilizing multi-mode fiber up to 0.55 kilometers(0.342 miles) and 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) when utilizing single-mode fiber.

  • It just works!
Color: Grey
Bought a pair of these along with a pair of TP-Link's less expensive transceivers. Plugged everything together and -POOPH! - instant connection. So easy even you know who could do it. Absolutely plug and play with a rock steady gigabyte throughput for what I think to be a very affordable price. You don't have to be an IT genius to get a high speed long distance data line to where you need it ... show more

  • Helps reduce lightning propagation!
Color: Grey
Have bought about a dozen of these over the last year. They work great and are a really good deal. Excellent for preventing lightning propagation! No connectivity issues. 1.25g sfp modules work fine in it.

  • Plug and play

Plug and play! Worked perfectly for the fiber I ran to my garage. I put this on both ends to hook my Ethernet from the router and modem

  • Good transreceivers
Color: Grey
These are working great. Used one to turn ethernet to multimode fiber optic and then the other to switch it back to ethernet. As you may be able to tell I don't know anything about fiber optic but it worked great to get internet in my shop. My only complaint is they don't come with the connectors needed for the fiber optic, so you will have to purchase those separately ... show more

  • Easy to install and does its job
Color: Grey
I have a detached garage with an upstairs apartment where I work from home. It has been connected with a CAT5e Ethernet cable but has been attracting lightning causing several strikes too close for comfort and causing 2-3 instances of damaged devices. I replaced that cable with a fiber cable and needed this media converter on each end to get back to copper Ethernet cable. This media converter was very easy and quick to install on my walls using typical wall anchors. The photos of the product don’t show it but there are screw slot holes on the back of the converter for mounting, so if you’re wondering like I was, there you go. I didn’t read the instructions. No need to. It’s a simple device doing a simple job. It lit up my fiber cable and worked perfect for my need. Now, only time will tell how long it lives before failure. It could last longer than me, or could fail at any time. No way to review that aspect without coming back in 2-5 years. I used 1Gb SX SFP’s by TP link on each converter to ensure compatibility. Both converter and SFP’s were packaged well and arrived quickly. Happy with the apparent quality of both. ... show more

  • Works As Expected
Color: Grey
I use these for optical isolation of devices that aren’t hooked to a surge protector or could be otherwise impacted by a power surge. For my use they work great. I’ve had these things for years and they work just as well now as they did new.

  • Simple, Reliable, and Built to Last
Color: Grey
I needed an easy way to connect fiber to Ethernet, and the TP-Link MC220L worked perfectly right out of the box. No complicated setup, just plug and play. The metal casing feels very durable, which is great for long-term use. It automatically negotiates speeds and has worked seamlessly with all my devices. If you want a hassle-free, reliable fiber media converter, this one’s a solid choice! ... show more
