Fiber to Ethernet Media Converter - 2km - 10/100TX to 100FX - Multimode - Accepts (x1) Duplex SC Cable

Fibertronics Fast Ethernet Fiber Optic Media Converters provide an economical Plug-and-Play solution for media converters and are the perfect solution for extending Ethernet LANs. These industry standard media converters support half and full duplex operation and feature easy to read system status LEDs. These converters are powered by an external 5V DC power supply which is included.

The EMC-1100 series is among Fibertronics' answers to expanding existing Fast Ethernet networks. The easy implementation and expansion of 10/100Base-TX/FX networks can be further assured with this converter. It is completely transparent when connected so the network, allowing it to perform exactly the way it did before. Only now, it allows the co-existence of both copper and fiber mediums.

Added flexibility is available with ST and SC connectors. Extra distances are also possible with the Single-mode version delivering up to 80km of connectivity per transmitted segment. The EMC-1100 series allows the installation of fiber cabling anywhere with a Fast Ethernet network topology by directly connecting to existing devices. Its compact modular design facilitates deployment in a narrow desktop location to save space.

A media converter is merely a device that can be plugged in and operated, but when connected to the network it must take account of certain factors. In accordance with the media converter port, the end face of the fiber patch cable should be the same. Ensure that wavelengths and speed rates are identical at both ends of the media converter. Be precise as to whether the converter supports full-duplex or half-duplex transmission and make sure to maintain the operating temperature range. Installation of a media converter should be done in a flat, secure location. Make sure that there's enough room for ventilation around the converter.
