Other Features

Auto-MDIX

Auto-MDIX (automatic medium-dependent interface crossover) detects the signalling on the 10/100/1000BASE-T interface to determine the type of cable connected (straight-through or crossover) and automatically configures the connection.

Error Recovery

In certain configurations, and under specific conditions where the Media Converter Module brings down a link to convey status, there is potential for a deadlock. Recovery is achieved by momentarily restoring the link to see if the original failure has been resolved. If it has not, the link will be forced down again, however if the original problem has been resolved, the link will be restored.

Pause (IEEE 802.3xy)

Integrated Pause signalling is an IEEE feature that temporarily suspends data transmission between two devices in the event that one of the devices becomes overwhelmed. The Perle Media Converter Module can generate and respond to Pause messages.
