Ideal Smart Fast Ethernet Converter Solution for FTTX
To provide an easy use yet powerful solution for FTTX applications, PLANET releases a new 10/100Base-TX to 100Base-FX Smart Media Converter, FST-81x series, featuring plug & play and smart media conversion functions.
Distance Extension with High Performance and Steady Network Communication
The PLANET Smart Fast Media Converter- FST-81x series extends communication distance with highly stable performance via fiber optical cable. The FST-81x series provides media conversion between 10/100Base-TX and 100Base-FX interfaces such as multi-mode ST/SC connectors (2km), single-mode SC connector (15/35/50km), single-mode LC connectors (2/20/40/60km) and single fiber connector (WDM,20km) fiber connection options for various application. The FST-81x series allows two easy types of connection. These Smart Media Converters can be used as a standalone unit when powered by its DC adapter or used as a slide-in module to the PLANET 19-inch Web Smart / Managed 16-Slots Media Converter Chassis (MC-1600MR/MC-1600MR48 & MC-1610MR / MC-1610MR48). When working with the Web Smart / Managed Media Converter Chassis, the FST-81x is able to be centrally managed and its status be monitored through the local RS-232 console and remote web interface.
Key Features:
- Complies with IEEE 802.3 10Base-T, IEEE 802.3u 100Base-TX, IEEE 802.3u 100Base-FX Ethernet Standard
- Auto-Negotiation and Auto-MDI / MDI-X for 10/100Base-TX port
One 100Base-FX port with LC/SC/WDM connector supporting multi-mode or single-mode fiber optic cable
- Link Loss Carry Forward (LLCF) work with LLR in diagnosing network connections
Manageable through Web Smart / Managed Media Converter Chassis System (MC-1600MR/MC-1610MR series)
- Bandwidth control / TS-1000 OAM / IEEE 802.3ah OAM / Loop Back Test function provided with MC-1610MR / MC-1610MR48 Managed Media Converter Chassis System
