10Base-T/FL media converter
10Base-T/FL media converter
The exc0015 is a 10Base-T to 10Base-FL converter. The converter can enable compatibility between disparate crossed and uncrossed cabling and hardware. It automatically identifies a cable as either crossed or uncrossed, then matches its configuration to that of the connected cable. The device configures the twisted-pair port to the correct mdi (medium-dependent interface workstation and converter port connection) or mdi-x (medium-dependent interface crossed port-hub and switch connection) configuration. The device features an application-specific integrated circuit design, monitoring for physical uplink and downlink failures, two leds per port that illustrate the status of both 10Base-T and 10Base-FL links, one RJ-45-type port and two ST connectors, and full- or half-duplex operation. Unit price is $249.
