This is a Fiber Module plugged into a hub running at either 10 or 100 Mbps. The module is then connected to an Intel Express 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch at full-duplex using 62.5/125-micron fiber optic cable. The module was forced to full-duplex to ensure a connection to the switch. The maximum cable distances are shown below.

Notes on connecting with fiber optic cable

1Connect devices up to 160 m apart at half-duplex. Connect up to 2 km at full-duplex.

2Insert the Fiber Module into a hub running at 10 or 100 Mbps. However, the connection between the Fiber Module and the connected device can only be 100 Mbps.

3If you’re unsure of a device’s auto-negotiation capabilities, force the duplex mode of the Fiber Module to ensure you’ll get a full- duplex connection.

4Performance with a full-duplex connection varies depending on your network. If you have problems, connect at half-duplex.
