10/100/1000 to 1000 SX/LX Media Converters

タイトルまたは説明

OVERVIEW

Signamax Connectivity Systems' new and improved *******6A series *0/**0/***0 Switching Media Converters provide an intelligent solution for long distance connections between legacy *0BaseT and **0BaseTX networks and ***0Base Gigabit Ethernet networks. The built-in *0/**0/***0 switch enables the fiber cable connection to operate at ***0 Mbps connected to either a *0BaseT, **0BaseTX, or a ***0BaseT network, while remaining completely ***0BaseSX or ***0BaseLX standard-compliant for the fiber optic connection. The fiber connection can also operate in full duplex mode whether the RJ**5 port is connected to a full duplex switch or a half duplex legacy hub.

Improvements in the *******6A series Media Converters include: extremely low latency of ≤1.5 μs, FIFO, worst case; the ability to force the RJ**5 port to **0Base or *0Base full or half-duplex modes; the ability to provide auto-negotiation on the ***0Base fiber port or forced full-duplex mode where required; and the enabling or disabling of the Link Fault Signaling feature. Link Fault Signaling provides a means of propagating a link drop on either port of the media converter to the other port, enabling a connected managed switch to see the link drop and respond to it using Spanning Tree Protocol or another recovery scheme. The built-in switch and its store-and-forward switching architecture performs the network segmentation that allows the maximum fiber distance extension. Auto-MDIX capability on the twisted-pair port allows convenient connection.
