EIMK
Installation Guide
EIMK Ethernet Media Converters allow transparent, low-cost and robust
connections between copper and fibre media. Each model supports full-
duplex operation for 100BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX segments. Two
models support multimode fibre optic connections: the EIMK-100T/FT
makes the fibre optic connection via ST-style connectors, whereas the
EIMK-100T/FC does so via SC-style connectors. The model EIMK-100T/FCS
supports single-mode fibre via SC-style connectors.
Maximum distance with 62.5/125 µm fibre cables is 2 km in full-duplex mode.
Single-mode fibre can span up to 15 km. All models support auto-negotiation
operation so that the data rate of the copper partner is matched automatically.
Two RJ-45 connectors (one MDI port and one MDIX port) allow either
straight-through or crossover copper cabling. Link and activity LEDs allow
troubleshooting from front-panel observations.
All units mount on TS-35 DIN-rail, operate from low-voltage AC or DC power
and offer redundant power connections.
Designed for automation applications, all models comply with
EMC immunity and emissions compatibility standards for
industrial environments.
