1. Introduction
The 1000BASE-T to 1000BASE-SX/LX media converter series provides a media
conversion allowing Gigabit integration of fiber optic and copper (twisted-pair)
segments. It is used to extend the connection distance between two copper
Gigabit Ethernet devices via fiber optic cable transparently with no performance
degradation.
The converters also provide the following key features:
•
Compliance with IEEE 802.3ab 1000BASE-T and IEEE 802.3z
1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX standard
•
Auto-negotiation function built in twisted-pair port that allows to
operate at optimal configuration connecting to an auto-negotiation
capable device
•
Auto MDI/MDI-X crossover configuration and receiving polarity
error correction on twisted-pair interface
•
Supporting low cost multimode fiber and single mode fiber cable
when long reach connection is needed
•
Extending network span up to 10Km over duplex single mode fiber
cabling
•
Setting switch to enable or disable auto-negotiation function of the
fiber port when connecting non-auto legacy 1000BASE-X device
•
Full LED indicators for monitoring port and connection status
The converter series support the following configuration needs:
