E-100BTX-FX-05

Operation -- Continued

Pause Control

The Pause feature can improve network performance by allowing one end of the link to signal the other to discontinue frame transmission for a set period of time to relieve buffer congestion.

NOTE: If the Pause feature is present on ALL network devices attached to the media converter(s), enable the Pause feature on the media converter(s). Otherwise, disable the Pause feature

Standard models

Link Pass-Through

The Link Pass-Through feature allows the media converter to monitor both the fiber and copper RX (receive) ports for loss of signal. In the event of a loss of an RX signal (1), the media converter will automatically disable the TX (transmit) signal (2), thus, “passing through” the link loss (3). The far-end device is automatically notified of the link loss (4), which prevents the loss of valuable data unknowingly transmitted over an invalid link.

Far-End Fault

When a fault occurs on an incoming fiber link (1), the media converter transmits a Far-End Fault signal on the outgoing fiber link (2). In addition the Far-End Fault signal also activates the Link Pass-Through, which, in turn, disables the link on the copper portion of the network (3) and (4).
