Signamax Connectivity Systems’ Switching
PCI Fiber Optic Media Converters are an excellent solution for
fiber-to-the-desktop installations where the workstation computers have
pre-installed Network Interfaces. These media converters are inserted
into one of the PC’s available PCI slots, and a copper patch cable is
used to connect the media converter to the existing network interface
jack on the PC’s motherboard or in an adjoining PCI slot. The fiber
optic cable then connects to the fiber-based cabling plan for network
connectivity. Avoids the need for fiber NIC driver maintenance in
environments where PCs are used in both fiber- and copper–connected
areas. These converters are designed to handle both legacy 10BaseT and
100BaseTX Fast Ethernet devices on their twisted pair port while
maintaining 100BaseFX Fast Ethernet transmission on the fiber optic
port. Plug-and-play simplicity makes connection easy.
Each Media Converter provides a
10/100BaseT/TX auto-negotiating RJ-45 twisted-pair connector port with
Auto-MDIX capability for convenient connection. Built-in 10/100 switch
enables the fiber cable connection to operate at 100 Mbps connected to
either a 10BaseT or a 100BaseTX network, while remaining completely
100BaseFX standard-compliant.
