The Tripp Lite by Eaton Hardened Gigabit Fiber to Ethernet Media Converter is engineered to bridge copper Ethernet networks with robust multimode fiber, delivering dependable, long-range connectivity in demanding environments. Designed for industrial and harsh-use settings, this device converts a copper Gigabit Ethernet signal to a multimode fiber signal and extends reach up to 500 meters (1640 feet) to a second network device. With support for 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds and auto-negotiation, it seamlessly integrates into existing Cat5e/6 infrastructures while providing a rugged enclosure suitable for temperature conditions from -10°C to 60°C. This media converter is TAA-compliant, ensuring procurement flexibility for government and enterprise deployments. Whether you’re upgrading a data center spine, extending campus networks, or engineering a durable link on a factory floor, this compact, plug-and-play solution delivers stable throughput, low latency, and simple maintenance without requiring complex configuration.
- Long-haul copper-to-fiber conversion: The device converts a copper Gigabit Ethernet signal to a multimode fiber signal, letting you extend a network connection from a copper-based switch or router to a remote device across fiber up to 500 meters away.
- Gigabit speed with automatic negotiation: Supports 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet speeds with auto-negotiation, ensuring optimal link speed and full-duplex communication between copper and fiber segments without manual setup.
- Rugged, hardened design for harsh environments: Built to endure industrial conditions, with a temperature range of -10°C to 60°C, making it suitable for manufacturing floors, outdoor installations, or equipment rooms with elevated ambient temperatures.
- SC multimode fiber interface: Utilizes a standard SC multimode fiber optic connector to couple with fiber optic networks, enabling straightforward integration with existing multimode fiber infrastructure and patch cables.
- Compact, plug-and-play deployment with compliance: A compact media converter that requires minimal or no configuration, designed to be resilient in field deployments and is TAA-compliant for compliant sourcing in procurement processes.

How to install Tripp Lite by Eaton Hardened Gigabit Fiber to Ethernet Media Converter
- Power the unit using the appropriate supply and place it in a secure, ventilated location to maintain ambient temperatures within the specified operating range.
- Connect the copper side: Attach your Cisco/HP/Aruba or other network device’s Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port to carry the Gigabit Ethernet signal onto the converter.
- Connect the fiber side: Plug a SC multimode fiber patch cord into the SC port on the converter and connect the other end to the remote device or switch’s fiber interface.
- Verify link and activity: Once connected, ensure the copper and fiber links establish properly; confirm LED indicators (if present) show an active link and data transmission to validate a healthy connection.
- Test the extended link: Perform a basic throughput test or traffic ping between the original copper-connected device and the remote node to confirm end-to-end connectivity and expected performance over the 500 m fiber span.
