CHAPTER 4: OPERATION

OPERATION

Each port has an Activity (ACT) LED indicating packets being received, a Link (LK) LED that indicates proper connectivity with the remote device when lit, and a FDX/HDX LED to indicate full-duplex mode when lit (or half-duplex when off). The 10/100 LED indicates 100Mbps speed when lit and at 10Mbps speed when off.

4.2.2.6 CC Module, 4 @100Mb multi-mode FX , MTRJ Small-Form-factor

The CC Module is a multi-mode fiber optic 4-port module equipped with a small-form- factor MTRJ-type connector. It looks almost like an RJ-45 port, but it is black in color. The MT-RJ’s small compact size connector and ease of connection make it a good choice for 100Mbps “fiber-to-the-desktop” Ethernet connectivity. When installed in a Multilink ML1200 Switch, it supports fiber optic cable distances up the IEEE-standard 100Mbps distance limits, i.e., typically 2km at full-duplex or half-duplex.

The functionality of this 100BASE-FX multi-mode 4-port module is essentially the same as the ST and SC-types. It has the same LEDs per port indicating port activity (ACT), Link (LK), and FDX or HDX operation.

4.2.2.7C3 Module, “COMBO” 2@ 10/100Mbps RJ-45 and 2@100Mb multi-mode FX , MTRJ Small-FF

The C3 Module is a combo module with copper and fiber (Small Form Factor) MTRJ type ports. The small size of MTRJ connectors provides an advantage of placing more ports on one module. The C3 Module is equipped with Two 10/100 RJ-45 ports and Two MTRJ fiber ports.

When installed in a Multilink ML1200 Switch, it supports the standard distances as per the media. Each port has an Activity (ACT) LED indicating packets being received, a Link (LK) LED that indicates proper connectivity with the remote device when lit, and a FDX/HDX LED to indicate full-duplex mode when lit (or half-duplex when off). The 10/100 LED indicates 100Mbps speed when lit and at 10Mbps speed when off.

4.2.2.8 CD Module, 4 ports @ 100Mbps multi-mode LC connector SFF

The CD Module is a Four-port multi-mode fiber LC connector “small-form-factor” used primarily in 100Mbps fiber-to-the-desktop links. When installed in a Multilink ML1200 Switch, it supports fiber optic cable distances up to the IEEE-standard 100Mbps distance limits, i.e., typically 2km at full-duplex and 412m at half-duplex.

The compact size of the LC Connector reduces the size of wiring panels in wiring closets while providing the advantage of “future-proof” fiber optic technology.
