There are two 100BASE-FX models (Figure135):
•The BPS2000-2FX MDA uses two longwave 1300 nm SC connectors to
attach devices over 62.5/125 or 50/125 micron multimode fiber optic cable.
•The BPS2000-4FX MDA uses four longwave 1300 nm MT-RJ connectors to
attach devices over 62.5/125 or 50/125 micron multimode fiber optic cable.
Figure 135 100BASE-FX MDA front panels
Both models conform to the IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-FX standard and can be used
for fiber-based 100 Mb/s connections (2 km maximum distance) to other
compatible Fast Ethernet devices. Single-mode fiber cable is not supported.
Table 6 9 describes the 100BASE-FX components and LEDs.
