Code : FT-801
PLANET FT-801 is a Fast Ethernet Bridge 100Base-FX Multimode fibre to 10/100Base-TX shielded twisted pair (STP) converter. It supports both half-duplex and full-duplex operation. The converter auto-adapts to the highest level of performance supported by the device connected to the STP port. When the device is a switch or a workstation that supports full duplex, the converter adapts to the full-duplex mode and provides an effective 200Mbps bandwidth. When the connected device is a hub or a workstation that supports only half duplex, the converter adapts to the half-duplex mode and provides the nominal 100Mbps bandwidth. An override switch provides total manual control over the half/full-duplex operation, in fibre-optic interface. The fibre port of converter operates at 1310 nm and uses ST connectors. Multi-mode models support distances up to 2km.
