Install the converter
This Converter utilizes ports with fiber and copper port
connectors functioning under Ethernet and/or Fast
Ethernet protocols.
10/100BASE-TX Port
The 10/100BASE-TX port supports network speeds of
either 10Mbps or 100Mbps, and can operate in half-
and full duplex transfer modes. This port also offers
automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection that gives
true "plug and play" capability - just plug-in the
network cable to the port and the port will adjust
according to end node device automatically. The RJ-
45 connector is suitable for UTP cable Category 3, 4,
5 or better.
100BASE-FX Port
The 100BASE-FX port adds a fiber Fast Ethernet link
to your network device. Compliant with IEEE 802.3u,
this port can transmits data at 100Mbps in full duplex
mode across distances of up to 2km over multi-mode
fiber-optic cable. The fiber port has a choice of three
fiber connector types: ST, SC and WDM.
