- Page 3 Introduction This guide describes the Bay Networks 10BASE-FL (fiber link) and single-mode fiber media adapters for the BayStack 10BASE-T Hubs, and provides instructions for installing, connecting, and configuring the adapters in the hub. Each BayStack fiber media adapter provides one nonredundant single- or multimode fiber port for flexible backbone connectivity to your BayStack 10BASE-T Hub.
- Page 4 BayStack 10BASE-FL Media Adapter The BayStack 10BASE-FL Media Adapter is a modular 10BASE-FL fiber link port. It is designed to be installed in either media adapter slot of a BayStack 10BASE-T Hub. The port is compatible with the IEEE 802.3 10BASE-FL specification for Ethernet running over 62.5/125 m or 50/125 m multimode fiber optic cable.

BayStack Single Mode Fiber Media Adapter The BayStack Single Mode Fiber Media Adapter is a modular port supporting 10BASE-F signaling. It is designed to be installed in the media adapter slot of any BayStack 10BASE-T Hub. The port conforms to Bay Networks proprietary standards for Ethernet running over 9/125 m single-mode fiber optic cable. - Page 6 Fiber Optic Cable Length Limitations The 10BASE-F standard permits you to use fiber optic cables up to 2000 meters long. However, the fiber connection must meet: • Optical power budget • Ethernet repeater rules For more information about simple rules for Ethernet network compliance, refer to Using the BayStack 10BASE-T Hubs.
- Page 7 Table 2 lists the most common cable and connector combinations for the 10BASE-FL media adapter, assuming the maximum permitted attenuation with ST connectors. The table lists the maximum (total) distance allowed in the fiber connection. However, your fiber connection may have to be shorter to meet the optical power budget and Ethernet repeater rules.
