The following example illustrates a connection from a
10BASE-T port of one hub to a 10BASE-FL port of
another hub through a media converter.
General Description
KC-10FM Ethernet media converter is designed to be a
connection interface between a 10BASE-T Ethernet UTP
cable and 10BASE-FL fiber cable. It features a RJ-45
connector and a pair of ST fiber optic connectors.
It allows you to make all UTP connections using common
straight-through UTP.
10BASE-T UTP Cable
Cable type: Category 3, 4 or 5
The converter complies with IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T and
10BASE-FL standard and supports a UTP cable up to 100
meters and a fiber optic cable up to 2000 meters with no
increasing on the hop count in the network.
Maximum cable distance: 100 meters (328 feet)
The following example illustrates a connection from a
10BASE-T port of one hub to a 10BASE-T NIC on a
computer through a media converter.
Fiber Optic Connectors
Two ST connectors are provided for fiber optic cable
connection. One is labeled "Tx" for transmitting operation.
The other is labeled "Rx" for receiving operation.
Fiber Optic Cable
Cable type: 62.5/125 mm multimode fiber (recommended)
Maximum cable distance: 2000 meters (6500 feet)
