2.4.10 BPM-FST
The Magnum BPM-FST is a multi-mode fiber optic local-bridge module
equipped with a dual ST-type connector. It is self-learning and filters and forwards
packets at full Ethernet wire speed. When used for 10BASE-FL segments, this module
supports fiber optic transmission
distances up to 2000m. For FOIRL, it
supports fiber segments of up to
1000m in length. The BPM-FST
includes full transceiver functionality
and does not require an external
transceiver device. The BPM-FST has
three status LEDs. FWD-I and FWD-X Magnum BPM-FST
are identical to those of the BPM-BNC (Section 2.4.9). In addition, this module has a
GREEN LINK LED, that is always on when the link is operational.
2.4.11 BPM-TP
The Magnum BPM-TP
card is equipped with a single RJ-
45 connector and supports standard
length Ethernet twisted pair
segments. The RJ-45 connector is
shielded to minimize emissions
and allows both unshielded twisted pair Magnum BPM-TP
(UTP) and shielded twisted pair (STP) segment connections.
The BPM-TP module is also equipped with a Media Dependent Interface-
Crossover (MDI-X) slide switch to allow for cascaded connections. This feature
eliminates the need for a special twisted pair crossover cable (see RPM-TP, 2.4.7).
The BPM-TP will support 10BASE-T unshielded twisted pair wiring (UTP)
with maximum segment distances of 100m (325 ft.), or shielded twisted pair wiring
(STP) of 150m (500 ft.). This module is designed with internal transceiver
functionality. The status LEDs are the same as those of the BPM-FST (Section 2.4.10).
