Using the BayStack 450 10/100/1000 Series Switch

There are two 100BASE-FX models (Figure C-2):

400-2FX MDA

The 400-2FX MDA uses two longwave 1300 nm SC connectors to attach devices over 62.5/125 or 50/125 micron multimode fiber optic cable.

400-4FX MDA

The 400-4FX MDA uses four longwave 1300 nm MT-RJ connectors to attach devices over 62.5/125 or 50/125 micron multimode fiber optic cable.

Both models conform to the IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-FX standard and can be used for fiber-based 100 Mb/s connections (2 km/6562 ft maximum distance) to other compatible Fast Ethernet devices. Single-mode fiber cable is not supported.

Table C-2 describes the 100BASE-FX components and LEDs.
