Product Features
Technical Overview
This media converter operates at Fast Ethernet speeds (100 Mbps) and supports both 100Base-TX over copper and 100Base-FX over fiber standards. The dual ST fiber ports use duplex connectors for reliable bidirectional communication, while the RJ-45 port supports standard Ethernet cabling with auto-MDIX capability for simplified connectivity.
The converter maintains signal quality across distances up to 2 kilometers (1.24 miles) when using appropriate multi-mode fiber. It includes advanced features such as link pass-through, far-end fault detection, and supports extended operating temperatures from -40°C to +75°C (-40°F to +167°F) for challenging environments.
This section brings together practical product details such as Total Number of Ports, Network (RJ-45), Number of Network (RJ-45) Ports, Media Type Supported, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
