Allied Telesis 100TX to 100FX (SC) standalone media converter: AT-MC102XLFibre connectionsThe Allied Telesyn range of Fast Ethernet Media converters provides a complete family of conversion devices; allowing users to extend the size of UTP networks with the use of fibre cabling. Supporting both SC and ST fibre connectors; these converters can be used to extend networks with up to 2km of fibre.Auto-negotiation and MissingLink℠The MissingLink℠feature enables the fibre optic ports on the media converter to pass the ‘Link†status of their connections to eachother. When the media converter detects a problem with one of the ports; such as the loss of connection to an end-node; the media converter shuts down the connection to the other port; thus notifying the node that the connection has been lost.Simple installation Both media converters feature an internal MDI/MDI-X switch; allowing the converter to be connected to either a PC; hub or switchwith a simple UTP cable.The media converters also allow the installer to test the integrity of fibre connection; by forcing the converters to communicate over the fibre cable.This ‘Link Test†feature allows installers to check for cable faults without the need for expensive fibre-optic test equipment.Standalone or rackmounted Each small media converter is powered by an external power supply unit for use in standalone applications.Where multiple media converters are being used; up to 12 standalone devices can be inserted into a lowcost rackmount chassis; allowing all the converters to be powered by a single internal power supply. In critical applications; a secondload sharing internal power supply can be installed into the rackmount chassis.
