are physically separated by large distances.
The AT-MC101XL, AT-MC102XL, AT-MC103XL, and AT-MC103LH

and a maximum operating distance of 100 meters (328 feet). The fiber
optic port has a dual ST or dual SC connector and a maximum operating
distance of 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) to 40 kilometers (24.8 miles),
depending on the model.
The AT-MC104XL and AT-MC104LH media converters feature two
100Base-FX fiber optic ports with either dual SC or dual ST connectors.
One port uses multi-mode fiber optic cabling and has a maximum
distance of 2 kilometers (1.2 miles). The second port uses single-mode
fiber optic cabling and has a maximum distance of 15 kilometers (9.3
miles) to 40 kilometers (24.8 miles), depending on the model.
These media converters operate at 100 Mbps and feature half- and full-
