SSETF10xx-200

Product Features

Full-Duplex / Half-Duplex

The SSETF10xx-200 receives and transmits network signals in either full- duplex or half-duplex mode (depending upon the network devices to which the Media Converter is attached).

Fast Ethernet™ in full-duplexmode allows the maximum cable distances listed on page 1.

Fast Ethernet™ in half-duplexmode requires attention to the 512-bit Rule (See page 7).

LinkAlert

The SSETF10xx-200 series Media Converter LinkAlert™ feature allows the Media Converter to pass 10Base-T/100Base-TX-side link faults over the link to the 10Base-T/100Base-SX side and to pass 10Base-FL/100Base-SX-side link faults over the link to the 10Base-FL/100Base-TX side.

If the SSETF10xx-200 Media Converter does not detect a good link on the 10Base-T/100Base-TX side, the Media Converter disables all transmission (including active-idle) on the 10Base-FL/100Base-SX side.

LINK FAULT INDICATION

AutoCross*

The AutoCross™ feature allows either straight-through (MDI) or crossover (MDI-X) cables to be used when connecting to 10Base-T or to 100Base-TX devices, such as hubs, transceivers, or network interface cards (NICs). AutoCross determines the characteristics of the cable connection and automatically configures the unit to link up, regardless of the cable configuration.

Auto-Negotiation*

The SSETF10xx-200 series Media Converter Auto-Negotiation™feature allows the Media Converter to be used with 10Base-T, 100Base-TX, 10Base- FL and 100Base-SX ports. Using Auto-Negotiation, the Media Converter brings up the copper and fiber links in the highest speed and mode possible for all the attached network devices.

NOTE: The SSETF10xx-200 series Media Converter does NOT support rate conversion between 10Mb/s and 100Mb/s network devices.

*Requires no operator intervention.
