PERLE SYSTEMS Perle 05040954 S-1000-M2ST2 - Fiber media converter - GigE - 1000Base-LX, 1000Base-T - RJ-45 / ST multi-mode - up to 1.2 miles - 1310 nm

Auto-MDIX with skew correction. Auto-MDIX (automatic medium-dependant interface crossover) detects the signaling on the 1000Base-T interface to determine the type of cable connected (straight-through or crossover) and automatically configures the connection when enabled. The media converter can also correct for wires swapped within a pair. Fiber fault alert. With fiber fault alert the state of the 1000Base-X receiver is passed to the 1000Base-X transmitter. This provides fault notification to the partner device attached to the 1000Base-X interface of the media converter. If the 1000Base-X transmitter is off as a result of this fault it will be turned on periodically to allow the condition to clear should the partner device on the 1000Base-X be using a similar technique. Auto-negotiation (802.3ab). The media converter supports auto negotiation. The 1000Base-X fiber interface negotiates according to 802.3 clause 37. The 1000Base-T negotiates according to 802.3 clause 28 and 40. The 1000Base-X will link up with its partner after the high common denominator (HCD) is reached and the copper has linked up with its partner. The 1000Base-X will continue to cycle through negotiation transmitting a remote fault of offline until the copper is linked up and the HCDs match. Pause (IEEE 802.3x). 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 media converter supports pause negotiation on the 1000Base-T fiber connection and 1000Base-X fiber connection. Smart link pass-through. When the link mode switch is placed into smart link pass-through mode, the 1000Base-TX port will reflect the state of the 1000Base-X media converter port. This feature can be used whether fiber auto-negotiation is enabled or disabled.
