Network Topologies
The AT-MC115XL and AT-MC116XL media converters can be used in two
different topologies: standalone and back-to-back. Both types of topologies are
described below.
Standalone Topology
A standalone topology uses one media converter between the end-nodes.
Figure 4 illustrates a standalone topology that uses an AT-MC115XL media
