10BASE-T TO 10BASE-FL MEDIA CONVERTERS
2. Introduction
2.1 Description
Use the 10BASE-T to 10BASE-FL Media Converters to
connect conventional copper-based networks to fiber-
based networks. These converters support both an RJ-45
jack and a pair of ST or SC fiberoptic connectors. They
comply with the IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T and 10BASE-FL
standards, and are compatible with other 10BASE-T/
10BASE-FL and 10/100-Mbps Ethernet devices.
An MDI/MDI-X button allows the media converter to
connect directly to either a workstation, switch, or hub
using crossover or straight-through cable.
Using 820-nm multimode fiber, the LE1605A-ST
converter spans distances up to 1.2 miles (2 km). With
1310-nm single-mode fiber and the LE1606A-SC, the
distance between a LAN switch and another switch or a
file server can be up to 9.3 miles (15 km).
Figures 2-1 and 2-2 show the available models.
