Coax Copper/Fiber Media Converter

(AR-CF-02) extends the signal distance of an ARCNET

®

segment or node

link up to 2 kilometers over fiber*, up to 600 meters over coax cable in a star
topology, and up to 300 meters over coax cable in a bus topology.
A switch on the media converter allows the media converter to be used to
terminate the link or node signal.
