Perle CM-100-S2SC120 - Fiber media converter - 100Mb LAN - 100Base-TX, 100Base-ZX - RJ-45 / SC single-mode - up to 74.6 miles - 1550 nm

Backup and restore. It provides fast and easy module replacement. Management module will always save a copy of the media converter configuration and will restore this configuration automatically to the media module when it is detected in the slot. Far-End Fault (FEF). The media converter implements the 802.3 standard for Far-End Fault for the indication and detection of remote fault conditions on the 100Base-FX fiber connection. With Far-End Fault enabled the media converter transmits the Far-End Fault indication over the 100Base-FX fiber connection whenever a receive failure is detected on the 100Base-FX fiber connection. Auto-MDIX. Auto-MDIX (automatic medium-dependant interface crossover) detects the signaling on the 100Base-TX interface to determine the type of cable connected (straight-through or crossover) and automatically configures the connection when enabled. With auto-MDIX enabled, either a straight-through or crossover type cable can be used to connect the media converter to the device on the other end of the cable. Pause (IEEE 802.3xy). Pause signaling is an IEEE feature that temporarily suspends data transmission between two devices in the event that one of the devices becomes overwhelmed. The Fast Ethernet media converter supports pause negotiation on the 100Base-TX copper connection. Link pass-through. With link pass-through the state of the 100Base-TX receiver is passed to the 100Base-FX transmitter to make the media converter appear transparent to the end devices that are connected. Using link pass-through with Far-End Fault minimizes data loss when a fault occurs.
