## Overview

The TP-Link MC220L is a UL-certified, plug-and-play media converter that transforms 1000BASE-SX/LX fiber signals into 1000Base-T Ethernet, supporting both single-mode and multi-mode fibers. With auto-negotiation and MDI/MDIX features, it delivers stable gigabit speeds and extends fiber connections up to 20km, all housed in a durable metal casing designed for professional-grade reliability.

## 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.

Review: It just works! - 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

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this lc connector support upc or apc fiber connections.... or both?**
A: This SFP is only for UPC fiber connections.  If you have a APC fiber you need to connect it to, adapters are available to do that.

**Q: Does it support 220v ?**
A: Yes.  The adapter states input voltage 100-240VAC  You will need an adapter if you get the US plug model as mine came with a standard US adapter.

**Q: Is it compatible with a hp j9660a or a dell powerconnect 2724?**
A: I am using this with the MC220L Transceiver converter and it works great.  However you can use this in any switch that has a SFP or SFP+ port.  Both the HP and Dell you stated do have SFP ports so you are good on either.

**Q: Is this module compatible with Netgear Switch?**
A: They are pretty much interchangeable.  I put them in tp-link switches but from what I got at my local fiber optic store is that they are all the same.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works perfectly
*by M***Y on January 2, 2026*

I used this to electrically isolate the ethernet cat6 line going outside in case of a lightening strike. Instead of an ethernet surge suppressor, I installed a short 3 ft length of fiber optic cable. This worked perfectly and we can't even tell its there.
