3. Description
Featuring distances up to 80km, the TC3705 10/100Base-T Ethernet Fiber Optic Switch provides a 100Base-
FX port that combines Ethernet Switching and Fiber Optic technology to boost total network bandwidth.
The TC3705 offers one multimode (1300nm) or single mode (1300/1550nm) optical port and four Ethernet
10/100Base-T Auto-Sensing/Auto-Negotiation switched ports. Each of these ports supports either 10Base-
T or 100Base-TX. There are two optional versions (Model TC3705T) for extreme temperature applications
(-20C to 70C, -40C to 80C).
Because it functions like an Ethernet bridge (connects multiple Ethernet segments to prevent unnecessary
network traffic), it creates an efficient sub-divided switched LAN that provides full and transparent
bandwidth for each segment.
The TC3705's modern switching technology eliminates the congestion problem inherent to the contention-
oriented Ethernet CSMA/CD protocol. This improves predictable response times under heavy network
loads. Previously, expensive routing technology was used to alleviate congestion from heavy traffic
loads.Power is 12VDC, optional 24VDC, -48VDC, 125VDC, or 115/230VAC with an external power cube.
Units are standalone or 19" rack mountable. Optical connectors can be SC, ST or FC.
