Introduce
The Fast Fiber Converter Module (Auto MDI/MDIX) is a cost-effective
solution for the converting between 10/100Base-TX and 100Base-FX
cabling, It allows you to extend the cabling distance of your 100Base-FX
network up to 2 kilometers for multi-mode fiber or 30 kilometers for
single-mode fiber. The Fast Fiber Converters module provides you with
one Fiber connector for your fiber optic cable (SC) and one Ethernet
RJ-45 port (Auto MDI/MDIX) for your 100BaseTX copper cable connection.
There are 4 DIP- switches to set the operation mode for UTP, Fiber ports
and link loss forwarding function.
The Fast Fiber Converter Module also supported WDM technology that
offers a cost efficient solution and allows a grouping of different services
on existing optical fibers inside. WDM Converter module converts signals
between 10/100Base-TX and 100Base-FX cabling, and incorporates
WDM technology. The WDM technology makes transmit (TX) and receive
(RX) lines onto a single fiber, which reduces half cabling cost. A pair of
WDM converters (wavelength 1310 and 1550 nm) should be installed at
both ends of the single fiber cable. The fiber cabling can extend the
connectivity distance up to 20 kilometers. The UTP port (RJ-45 connector)
of this converter supports Auto MDI/MDIX function. Besides, there are 4
DIP- switches on the front panel of the converter to set the operation
mode and Link Loss Forwarding Function.
The Fast Fiber Converter Module can be slotted in Multi-Converter
Chassis up to 10 optional modular converter units, which allows your
network connectivity to be more flexible. It also can be use stand-alone
without slot in Multi-Converter Chassis.
