Installation Instructions for FMC-10/100I 
10/100BASE-T/TX to 100BASE-FX
In-band Managed Fiber Media Converters

Description

The FMC-10/100I is a media converter for 10Base-T or 100Base-TX, data transmission over optical 

fiber media depending on your specific network needs.  All media converters are available with either 

multi-mode or single-mode optical transceivers and with connectors for SC, ST or FC. In single mode, 

WDM (Wave Division Multiplexing with SC connector) is also available in 20, 40, 60, or  80Km reach, 

which will provide the ability to transmit and receive data using only a single optical fiber. When the 

FMC-10/100I is connected with the FRM220 rack, then it features with In band management, the 

converter can be monitored, configured and controlled the activity of each port for both local or 

remote sides. For the UTP side, auto-negotiation is default. You may set data rate to 10Mbps or 

100Mbps and  duplex mode to full or half only. The Fiber Transceiver Converters give you the freedom 

to extend your 10/100Mbps cabling distance by allowing connectivity up to 120 kilometers. Six LED 

indicators signal the power status of the converter, UTP port speed, duplex status and Link/Act and 

FX port Link/Act and FEF (Far End Fault).
