The TRANSITION Networks Fiber Optic Micro-ceiver (E-FRL-MC01(C)) is a compact
unit used in an Ethernet IEEE 802.3 type of network. It can be connected directly to any
Ethernet workstation, hub or AUI (Attachment Unit Interface) attachment cable.
The Micro-ceiver has an AUI (DB-15) port interface on one end and two ST type fiber
connections on the other. NOTE: An SMA type fiber connection is also available on
the Micro-ceiver E-FRL-MC01C(SMA).
