2 Hardware Description
Product Overview
The Converter was specifically designed to offer the
network designer the tools for migration from Coaxial
based Ethernet to UTP based Ethernet. Now,
migration or expansion of existing networks can be
achieved with minimum cost and complexity. The
Converter is completely transparent to the network so
the network performs exactly the way it did before -
only now it can migrate both UTP and coaxial
mediums.
Expands the Size of an Existing Network
Provides UTP/coaxial connectivity to Ethernet
segments, allowing for even further networking
expansion between extended nodes. Allows for the
quick and easy addition of coaxial segments to
existing 10Base-T networks.
Enhances Networking Distances
Connecting the Converter to UTP segments can
further extend distances of up to 185 meters for a total
segment length of 285 meters. The Converter can be
connected to an additional fiber converter for even
longer extensions.
