- MC111CS – The data sheets are available under the download tab. Purchased.
- MC112CS – Purchased
- Ebay: 120 Ft Test cable Purchased: with correct connectors – in reality I need 250 Meters but this is cheaper to make sure all else is working before I buy the much more expensive fiber optic cable.
- Ebay: 250 Meter SC SC Fiber Optic Cable – will need to take at least one spare. See the table at the bottom.
- Ebay: 300 Meter SC SC Fiber Optic Cable – Outdoor – appears outdoor means a black heavy jacket has been added to same type of cable as entry immediately before this one.

The MC111CS and MC112CS are complimentary in that the Tx wavelength is the Rx wavelength of the other. See excerpt below.
The MC112CS is a media converter designed to convert 100BASE-FX fiber to 100Base-TX copper media or vice versa. Adopting WDM technology, MC112CS takes only one fiber cable to transmit and receive data, which will save half cabling cost for you. Designed under IEEE 802.3u 10/100Base-TX and 100Base-FX standards, the MC112CS is designed for use with single-mode fiber cable utilizing the SC-Type connector. The MC112CS supports longwave (LX) laser specification at a full wire speed forwarding rate. It works at 1310nm on transferring data and at 1550nm on receiving data. So the other end device to cooperate with the MC112CS should work at 1550nm on transferring data and at 1310nm on receiving data. Another TP-LINK?s media converter MC111CS is just one of the examples to cooperate with MC112CS.

- I tested this setup with a 120 foot long patch cord. It worked.
