FST-802 - PLANET 10/100BASE-TX to 100BASE-FX (SC, MM) Smart Media Converter-2km
Enhanced Smart Management Features
The FST-80x series provides auto MDI/MDI-X on their TP port and store-and-forward mechanism to eliminate faulty packets. Use the DIP switch from the FST-80x to configure the available smart functions, such as the half/full duplex, auto-negotiation / force and 10/100Mbps options for TP and fiber interfaces. Besides, the Link Loss Return (LLR) and Link Loss Carry Forward (LLCF) functions can immediately alarm network administrator once there is a media link issue, thus helping to monitor the status of the entire network.
Easy Installation
The FST-80x series can be connected easily and cost-effectively as these smart media converters can be used as a standalone unit when powered on by its DC adapter, or used as a slide-in module connected to PLANET 19-inch, 16-slot web smart/managed media converter chassis (MC-1600MR/MC-1600MR48 and MC-1610MR/MC-1610MR48). When working with the web smart/managed media converter chassis, the status of the FST-80x can be monitored via the local RS-232 console and remote web interface.
Applications
Standalone and Centrally-managed Media Converter Installation
PLANET FST-80x adopts the advanced media conversion technology to meet the demand for today’s growing networking. It provides a diverse choice of fiber connecting types to meet different network applications. It is very flexible for the FST-80x to work as a standalone device or to be installed in the central web smart media converter chassis for centralized management, which supports hot swapping to avoid network downtime. The FST-80x is ideal for building a network solution of FTTH (Fiber to the Home) or FTTC (Fiber to the Curb) and FTTB (Fiber to the Building) for ISPs, campuses and enterprises.
