The ANPA AP-SFP-MC100 is a Fast Ethernet SFP media converter that brings interchangeable-optics flexibility to 100Mbps links. It pairs a 10/100Mbps RJ45 copper port with an open 100Base SFP slot accepting standard SFP modules — single-mode or multi-mode, from short campus hops to 40 kilometers. Surveillance and access networks built around 1080p cameras get the cost advantage of Fast Ethernet plus the freedom to choose optics per route, with one converter SKU covering every project. Plug-and-play, rugged and EMI-immune, the AP-SFP-MC100 is the flexible workhorse for budget-conscious fiber rollouts. Request a quote for converter and module options.

Product Overview
Fixed-optic 100M converters force a distance decision at purchase time. The AP-SFP-MC100 removes that constraint: its 100Base SFP slot accepts interchangeable SFP modules, so the same unit runs on multi-mode fiber between nearby buildings or single-mode fiber across tens of kilometers — simply fit the matching module. The single RJ45 port auto-negotiates 10/100Mbps with auto-MDI/MDIX for zero-configuration deployment.
Standardization pays off for distributors and installers: stock one converter model and the handful of SFP modules your projects use, rather than many fixed-optic SKUs. The SFP port follows industry standards and interoperates with SFP uplinks on ANPA and third-party switches, allowing copper devices to connect into existing SFP fiber plants. LEDs confirm power, copper link and optical link status.
Fast Ethernet is sufficient and economical for 1080p CCTV, access control and general data — while fiber still delivers EMI immunity in industrial environments, lightning protection on outdoor runs and ground-loop isolation between buildings. The compact metal housing suits desktop and wall/cabinet mounting. Every AP-SFP-MC100 is CE, FCC and RoHS certified, manufactured in ANPA’s Chaozhou factory and verified under the 9-step, 100%-inspection QC program before shipment.
Application Scenarios
1080p CCTV Fiber Links with Variable Routes
Standardize on one 100M converter and fit SFP modules to suit each camera run — short multi-mode hops or long single-mode backhauls — without stocking multiple fixed-optic models.
Budget Multi-Site Rollouts
Retail chains, schools and estates deploying many fiber links keep costs at Fast Ethernet levels while retaining flexible optics and simplified spares across sites.
Integration into SFP Fiber Plants
Connect copper cameras, access controllers or legacy switches to networks already using SFP switches — fit a matching 100Base SFP module for guaranteed interoperability.
Harsh-Environment 100M Links
Factories, utilities and outdoor surveillance use fiber for EMI immunity and surge safety at Fast Ethernet speeds that fully cover surveillance and telemetry traffic.

Need gigabit? Use the AP-SFP-MC (10/100/1000M); fixed SC 100M converters include the short-haul AP-3102AB and long-haul AP-3101AB; multi-port 100M nodes are the AP-3114AB and AP-3118AB.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the difference between AP-SFP-MC100 and AP-SFP-MC?
The AP-SFP-MC100 runs at Fast Ethernet (10/100Mbps, 100Base SFP) for 1080p CCTV and data at lower cost. The AP-SFP-MC runs gigabit 10/100/1000Mbps for 4K video and high-bandwidth links. Both use interchangeable SFP modules.
2. Is the SFP module supplied with the converter?
The converter ships with the SFP slot; modules can be supplied by ANPA to match your fiber and distance requirements or sourced to industry standard. Specify your route when requesting a quote for a complete kit.
3. What fiber types and distances work?
Any standard 100Base SFP module fits: multi-mode for short links (hundreds of meters) and single-mode commonly up to 40km depending on the module. This lets one converter model serve every 100M project.
4. Do I need one or two converters?
For a copper-to-copper fiber link, one converter per end (two total), each with a matching SFP module. When connecting to a switch with a built-in SFP port, only the copper-end converter is needed.
5. Is Fast Ethernet enough for cameras?
Yes for 1080p cameras, access control and general edge data — each stream uses only a few Mbps. Gigabit is only necessary for 4K/8MP multi-stream cameras, Wi-Fi 6 or heavy data traffic.
6. Does fiber help with lightning and interference?
Yes. Fiber carries light, not electricity, so it is immune to EMI from machinery and power lines and cannot conduct lightning surges; it also isolates buildings with different ground potentials.
7. What are the MOQ and OEM terms?
MOQ is 2 pieces, and ANPA offers OEM/ODM branding, packaging, firmware and documentation customization from its own factory, with converter-plus-module project kits available. Request a quote for details.
