Moxa IMC-21-S-SC Industrial Ethernet-to-Fiber Media Converter
The Moxa IMC-21-S-SC is an industrial Ethernet-to-fiber media converter designed to connect copper-based Fast Ethernet equipment with single-mode fiber infrastructure. It converts a 10/100BaseT(X) RJ45 Ethernet connection to 100BaseFX single-mode fiber through an SC connector, making it suitable for extending Ethernet communication beyond the distance limitations of conventional copper cabling.
The IMC-21-S-SC is designed for industrial network deployments where reliable fiber connectivity, compact installation and long-distance transmission are required. Its DIN-rail mounting and industrial power input make it suitable for factory automation, control cabinets, field networks and other industrial Ethernet environments.

Industrial Ethernet and Fiber Applications
The Moxa IMC-21-S-SC can be used to extend Fast Ethernet connectivity between industrial devices and network infrastructure through single-mode fiber. It is suitable for applications where copper-to-fiber conversion is required, including factory automation, industrial control networks, surveillance infrastructure, remote field equipment and distributed Ethernet installations.
Its single-mode SC interface is particularly useful for longer-distance fiber links. Moxa specifies a typical distance of up to 40 km for the single-mode configuration, although actual achievable distance depends on the fiber characteristics, optical link budget, connector losses and installation conditions.
Installation and Compatibility
The IMC-21-S-SC includes a 10/100BaseT(X) RJ45 interface on the copper side and a 100BaseFX single-mode SC interface on the fiber side. The unit supports DIN-rail installation and operates from a 12–48 VDC power source, making it suitable for industrial control cabinets and field installations.
When planning a fiber link, ensure that the connected equipment and fiber infrastructure match the converter's 100BaseFX single-mode SC interface requirements. Moxa also recommends using an attenuator when connecting a single-mode fiber transceiver where excessive optical power could potentially damage the receiver.
Why Choose the Moxa IMC-21-S-SC?
The IMC-21-S-SC provides a straightforward way to integrate existing 10/100 Mbps copper Ethernet equipment with single-mode fiber infrastructure. Its compact industrial design, DIN-rail mounting, wide DC power input, built-in isolation and long-distance fiber capability make it a practical option for industrial Ethernet extension projects.
