Since the 100BaseFX ports are fiber optic ports, they are
capable of accepting only 100BaseFX connections. When
connected to a 100BaseFX network, the ports operate at
100Mbps in half-duplex mode and 200Mbps in full-duplex
mode.
The length of the FX fiber link between a switch and Data
Terminal Equipment is dependent on the fiber media;
100BaseFX is capable of spanning at least 2 Kilometers using
62.5/125-micron fiber optic cable, and up to 75 Kilometers
using 10/125-micron fiber optic cable.
The following table summarizes the port and cable
specifications for this switch.
