Description

Product Highlights: - 10/100 RJ45 to 100FX Converter - Automatic MDI/MDI-X (medium dependent interface / MDI crossover) - Auto-negotiation, NWay support on RJ-45 - Link Fault Signaling and LEDs for at-glance device status - Operating temperature 0°C~50°C (32°F~122°F) Overview: NXF-742E is a 10/100 RJ45 to 100FX Copper to the Fiber media converter. It's an inexpensive and minimal solution with automatic MDI/MDI-X and Auto-negotiation, NWay support on RJ-45. The device uses LED signaling to inform users of its transmission activity. The converter is completely transparent when connected, meaning that network performance remains unchanged. The device is available in single- and multi-mode fiber with data transmission delivery at distances of 2/30/40/60/100km depending on request. For added flexibility, this media converter is available with ST, SC, TX, RX connector. This media converter operates between temperatures of 0°C~50°C (32°F~122°F). The device has a standard size to fit on an in-rack solution with multiple media converters. Features: - Versatile and Reliable Technology: Network administrators can now flexibly monitor and diagnose issues associated with device or network functionality and link activity using the NXF-742E enhanced features. With the LoopBack function, the converter allows administrators to perform network diagnostics from a local or remote location and quickly pinpoints problem areas of links by testing a particular segment. LFS (Link Fault Signalling) feature on the device provides critical information about link status and enables you to easily detect optical signal strengths and faulty links on copper and fiber ports, and significantly minimizes outage. - Economic and Space-saving Design: Responding to the issues of design in mission-critical environments, the NXF-742E is designed in a space-saving, compact and slim housing. This standalone low-cost media converter provides transparent conversion at 100Mbps without data stream interference and inexpensively connects both 10/100Mbps copper port and 100Mbps Fiber port in a small enclosure. Compact in size, the media converter easily fits in smaller infrastructures that have little space available. The NXF-742E is extremely simple to install and operate, and thus saves you valuable time and money. - Easy Plug-and-play Operation: Being a compact, lightweight media converter, the NXF-742E is an easy-to-setup and ready-to-use solution for dispersed or emerging networks. Featuring Auto-MDI/MDIX and Auto-negotiation, the media converter automatically detects and configures the best mode of operation over a link. This eliminates the need for user setup or configuration procedures and simplifies installation. And once installed the media converter operates automatically. In addition, the DIP switches on the NXF-742E provide the simplest and quickest way to enable or disable various functions on the device.
