Rate Conversion
The SBFTF10xx-12x media converter allows connection of 10Mb/s terminal devices on a 10Base-T legacy Ethernet copper network to 100Mb/s terminal devices on a 100Base-TX fast Ethernet copper network and/or to 100Mb/s terminal devices on a 100Base-FX fast Ethernet fiber network.
Congestion Reduction
The SBFTF10xx-12x media converter does not forward collision signals or error packets from one collision domain to another, improving baseline network performance. In addition, the media converter filters packets destined for local devices, also reducing network congestion.
Auto-Negotiation
The Auto-Negotiation feature allows the SBFTF10xx-12x media converter to automatically configure itself to achieve the best possible mode of operation over a link. The media converter broadcasts its speed (10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s) and duplex capabilities (full or half) to the other devices and negotiates the best mode of operation. Auto-Negotiation allows quick and easy installation because the optimal link is established automatically.
A scenario where the media converter is linked to a non-negotiating device is a case where the user may want to disable Auto-Negotiation. In this instance, the mode of operation will drop to the least common denominator between the two devices (e.g.: 10 Mb/s, half-duplex). Disabling this feature gives the user the ability to force the connection to the desired speed and duplex mode of operation.
AutoCross™
When the AutoCross feature is activated, it allows either straight-through (MDI) or crossover (MDI-X) copper cables to be used when connecting to 10Base-T or 100Base-TX devices. AutoCross determines the characteristics of the connection and automatically configures the unit to link up, regardless if the copper cable is MDI or MDI-X configuration. (Transition networks recommends leaving the device in the default “enable” mode.)
