The 10/100M Media Converter is a desktop unit that extends traditional 10M Ethernet or 100M Fast Ethernet over an optical fiber link, converting 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX copper signals into 100BASE-FX optical signals. It links copper Ethernet segments to a fiber backbone and reaches transmission distances far beyond twisted pair, with full transparency to upper-layer network protocols.

Key features

• 10/100M auto-negotiation on the copper port — works with 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX equipment without configuration.
• 10/100BASE-FX optical port — converts copper Ethernet traffic to fiber for long-distance links.
• Protocol transparency — data is forwarded at wire speed without altering network protocols.
• Compact desktop housing — plug-and-play, no rack space required.
• LED status indication — shows power, link and activity for quick troubleshooting.
• Low power consumption — designed for continuous unattended operation.

Application scope

• Fiber to the home (FTTH) projects
• Cable network TV (CATV)
• Local area networks (LAN) and access networks
• Metropolitan area networks (MAN)
• Telecom networks and Gigabit data network testing
• Fiber optic communication equipment
