10/100Base-TX to 100Base-FX (SC, MM) Bridge Media Converter
- The PLANET FT-80X is Fast Ethernet Bridge 100Base-FX fiber to 10/100Base-TX shielded twisted pair (STP) converter.
- It supports selectable for half-duplex and full-duplex operations and supports a variety of fiber options.
- The converter auto-adapts to the highest level of performance supported by the device connected to the STP port.
- When the device is a switch or a workstation that supports full duplex, the converter adapts to the full-duplex mode and provides an effective 200Mbps bandwidth.
- When the connected device is a hub or a workstation that supports only half duplex, the converter adapts to the half-duplex mode and provides the nominal 100Mbps bandwidth. An override switch provides total manual control over the half/full-duplex operation, in fiber-optic interface. -The fiber port of converter operates at 1310 nm and uses ST, SC, MT-RJ, VF-45 or WDM connectors.
- Multi-mode models that support distances up to 2 km and single-mode models that support distances up to 15/35/50 km are available.
