Easy Connectivity to Fast Ethernet Fiber Backbone

SMC's 10/100 LAN Extender FX is a two-port Fast Ethernet switch that can connect an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet network to a Fast Ethernet fiber backbone. It is equipped with one 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T port for twisted-pair cable and one 100BASE-FX port with an SC connector for fiber cable. Both ports support full-duplex mode, so you can double the bandwidth of each segment. And, the twisted-pair port supports Auto-Negotiation, so the optimum data rate-100 or 10 Mbps-is selected automatically.

The 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T port can be connected to an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet hub or switch. Since these devices may have either crossover or straight-through ports, this LAN Extender port contains two RJ-45 connectors: one for crossover cable and the other (a Daisy-Chain port) for straight-through cable. This way, no matter what type of port the device has, you can connect it to the LAN Extender with straight-through cable.

The 100BASE-FX port can be connected to a fiber backbone. In addition, pairs of LAN Extenders can be joined together with fiber cable to extend the reach of a shared Fast Ethernet network. In full-duplex mode, the LAN Extender supports a fiber cable run of up to 2 km.

The LAN Extender employs a non-blocking design to allow simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at very low latency. And, it includes a comprehensive array of "at-a-glance" LEDs for easy network monitoring.

Features/Benefits
