Transition Networks Stand-Alone Mini Fast Ethernet Media Converter - Fiber media converter - 100Mb LAN - 100Base-TX, 100Base-X - RJ-45 / SFP (mini-GBIC)

Far End Fault (FEF). A troubleshooting feature is generally used in conjunction with Link Pass Through to notify both end devices of a loss of link. AutoCross. Automatically detects and configures the twisted pair port on the converter to the correct MDI or MDI-X configuration. Extend network distance. Fiber supports the transmission of Fast Ethernet data over much longer distances than is possible twisted pair. Small size. It is ideal for conversion locations where available space is at a premium. Fiber integration. Used in pairs or as a single unit, this mini media converter will ease the integration of fiber optic cabling into copper-rich Fast Ethernet environments. Auto-negotiation (802.3u). It allows devices to perform automatic configuration to achieve the best possible mode of operation over a link. Automatic link restoration. Transition Networks converters will automatically re-establish link in all network conditions. Low-latency design. As a layer-1 design, this Mini converter will retransmit Fast Ethernet signals without any store-and-forward packet inspection delays found in other layer-2 devices.
