TP-LINK MC100CM
Fast Ethernet Media Converter
Overview:
The MC100CM is a media converter designed to convert 100BASE-FX fiber to 100Base-TX copper media or vice versa. Designed under IEEE 802.3u 10/100Base-TX and 100Base-FX standards, the MC100CM is designed for use with multi-mode fiber cable utilizing the SC-Type connector. The MC100CM supports longwave (LX) laser specification at a full wire speed forwarding rate. It works at 850nm on both transmitting and receiving data.
Other features of this module include the ability to be used as a stand alone device (no chassis required) or with TP-LINK's 19'' system chassis, Auto MDI/MDI-X for TX port, Auto negotiation of duplex mode on TX port, supports both 5VDC and 9VDC external power supply and front panel status LEDs. The MC100CM will transmit at extended fiber optic distances utilizing multi-mode fiber up to 2 kilometers (1.2 miles).
- Complies with 802.3u 10/100Base-TX, 100Base-FX standards
- Link Fault Passthrough and Far End Fault minimize the loss caused by link failure timely
- Provides switch configuration of Half-Duplex / Full-Duplex transfer mode for FX port
- Extends fiber distance up to 2km (1.2 miles)
