Description

The N-Tron 102MCE is an unmanaged 10/100BaseTX to 100BaseFX industrial media converter designed to allow the connection of 10/100BaseTX Ethernet devices to your 100BaseFX fiber cabling infrastructure. The 102MCE provides one RJ-45 auto sensing 10/100BaseTX port and one 100BaseFX port. The RJ-45 port is full/half duplex capable, using state of the art Ethernet switching technology. The 102MCE auto-negotiates the speed and flow control capabilities of the TX copper port connection, and configures itself automatically. The 100BaseFX fiber optic port utilizes industry standard ST or SC connectors and is configured for full duplex operation. Both singlemode (102MCE) & multimode (102MC) fiber models are available.

Unlike most media converters, the 102MCE uses switching technology. This means that 10Mbps devices can be connected today and upgraded to 100Mbps devices later. The switching fabric simply scales up or down automatically to match specific network environments. The 102MCE also supports up to 2,000 MAC addresses, enabling these products to support extremely sophisticated and complex network architectures.
