KC-351

PoE Powered 10/100BASE-TX to 100BASE-FX Media Converters

The 10/100BASE-TX to 100BASE-FX media converter series provides a media conversion allowing high-speed integration of fiber optic and twisted-pair segments. With 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX support, the converters provide seamless translation between Ethernet and Fast Ethernet networks.Because of 802.3af compliance, the converters can draw the power via Cat.5 cable connected to a PoE PSE switch or mis-span injector in addi-tion to being powered by typical external power adapter,. This feature makes the converter ideal for remote areas of a network without AC power outlets.

Key Features:

  • Convert speed and media type with full wire speed conversion
  • Support 10Mbps and 100Mbps speed on TP connections
  • Auto-negotiation and auto MDI/MDI-X detection function
  • Link fault pass through function
  • Provide manual configuration settings for TP port to support connection to non-auto-negotiation devices
  • Transparent to 802.1Q VLAN tagged packets
  • Far End Fault function on FX port
  • Support wide range of fiber options on the FX port
  • Provide user-inaccessible settings for specific system applications
  • Low power consumption
  • IEEE 802.3af compliant PoE PD (Powered Device) design
