Full description

PLANET Fast Ethernet Bridge 100BASE-FX Fibre to 10/100BASE-TX shielded twisted pair (STP) converter (MM, 2km)

It supports both half-duplex (412m) and full-duplex (2km) operation and a variety of fibre options. The converter auto-adapts to the highest level of performance supported by the device connected to the STP port. When the device is a switch or a workstation that supports full duplex, the converter adapts to the full-duplex mode and provides an effective 200Mbps bandwidth. When the connected device is a hub or a workstation that supports only half duplex, the converter adapts to the half-duplex mode and provides the nominal 100Mbps bandwidth. An override switch provides total manual control over the half/full-duplex operation in fibre-optic interface. The fiber port of the converter operates at 1310 nm and uses an SC or ST connector.

The FT-801 and FT-802 can support distances up to 2km using Multimode Fibre infrastructure.

Featuring LFP (Link Fault Pass-through function) (LLCF/LLR) and the DIP switch design. LLCF/LLR can immediately alarm administrators the problem of the link media and provide an efficient solution to monitoring the net. The DIP switch provides the disabling or enabling of the LFP function.

LLCF (Link Loss Carry Forward) means when a device is connected to the converter and the TP line loses the link, the converter's fibre will disconnect the link of transmit. LLR (Link Loss Return) means when a device is connected to the converter and the fiber line loses the link, the converter's fiber will disconnect the transmit link. Both can immediately alarm administrators the problem of the link media and provide an efficient solution to monitoring the net.
