Introduction
Product Overview
The Enhanced 10/100 to 100Base-FX Switching Converter is
designed for large workgroups who demand higher speed and wider
bandwidth. This converter allows migration and expansion from a
copper-based Ethernet to a fiber optic Fast Ethernet.
It features automatic MDI detection setting. This feature allows for
simple direct connection to a workstation, switch or hub. Therefore,
network managers no longer need to worry about cable type
configuration when establishing a connection between RJ-45 ports.
This media converter is equipped with an RJ-45 port and a fiber
optic ST or SC port. This allows it to quickly integrate a 10/100Base-
TX network into a 100Base-FX (fiber) network.
It features DIP switches for manual half or full-duplex mode
configuration on the fiber port. In full-duplex mode, this converter
has the ability to support distances of up to 2 kilometers for multi-
mode fiber and up to 60 kilometers for long-haul single mode fiber
between a LAN switch, file server or another networking device.
