Page 4: Introduction
Introduction Product Description Lantronix M/E-TX series of Fast Ethernet stand-alone Mini media converters provide cost effective media conversion between 100Base-TX ports and 100Base-FX ports. With its fixed configuration, deployments are just plug-and-play, and its small size makes it ideal for locations where space is limited. Operating at Layer 1, the physical layer, data is passed through the converter at line speed, making it ideal for applications where low latency is essential. -
