Product Overview
DESCRIPTION
The FT82011/FR82011 Ethernet media converter converts 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX data to 100BASE-FX data and vice versa. Designed for point-to-point applications, the FT82011/FR82011 media converter provides one 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX port and one 100BASE-FX fiber port. The FT82011 and FR82011 media converters are used in combination with one another to provide wavelength compatibility. Using wavelength division multiplexing (WDM), bidirectional data is transported in a single fiber (refer to Figure 1).

Features of the FT82011/FR82011 Ethernet media converter include the following:
•User-selectable 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX port functions:
–Autonegotiation between 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps data rates and between full-duplex and half-duplex modes
–10 Mbps or 100 Mbps selectable
–Full-duplex or half-duplex mode selectable
–Enabling/disabling of flow control
NOTE: The 100BASE-FX fiber port is automatically forced to full-duplex 100 Mbps operation.
•Auto MDI/MDI-X (Medium Dependent Interface/Medium Dependent Interface Crossover) operation
•Link-down detection, which propagates a link-down status among all 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX ports connected in the network when a 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX link or 100BASE-FX link goes down. As a result, all ports are disabled and data transmission halts until the faulty link is restored.
•Compliant with IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3x standards
•Multimode fiber support for distances up to 2 km
•Single-mode fiber support for distances up to 46 km
•Laser diode for transmission of optical signals
NOTE: The FT82011/FR82011 media converter is a Class 1 laser product that complies with FDA radiation performance standard 21CFR Subchapter J and with IEC 60825-1 Edition 1.2, 2001-08.
