PERLE SYSTEMS Perle 05051210 C-100-M2SC2 - Fiber media converter - 100Mb LAN - 100Base-FX, 100Base-TX - RJ-45 / SC multi-mode - up to 1.2 miles - 1310 nm

Far-End Fault (FEF). The media converter implements the 802.3 standard for Far-End Fault for the indication and detection of remote fault conditions on the 100Base-FX fiber connection. With Far-End Fault enabled the media converter transmits the Far-End Fault Indication over the 100Base-FX fiber connection whenever a receive failure is detected on the 100Base-FX fiber connection. The media converter continuously monitors the100Base-FX fiber connection for a valid signal. Auto-MDIX. Auto-MDIX (automatic medium-dependant interface crossover) detects the signaling on the 100Base-TX interface to determine the type of cable connected (straight-through or crossover) and automatically configures the connection when enabled. With Auto-MDIX enabled, either a straight-through or crossover type cable can be used to connect the media converter to the device on the other end of the cable. Pause (IEEE 802.3xy). Pause signaling is an IEEE feature that temporarily suspends data transmission between two devices in the event that one of the devices becomes overwhelmed. The fast Ethernet media converter supports pause negotiation on the 100Base-TX copper connection.
