Benefits
Extending the Network Span
The MC100FX-SC Series equips with one 100FX fiber port and one 10/100TX copper port for speed and
media conversion. Featuring with SC type connector, the 100FX fiber port can extend network span for
up to 30 km.

extending network for span up to 2 km.
Transparent to 802.1Q VLAN Packets
The MC100FX-SC Series media converter can identify and retain 802.1Q VLAN packets to ensure that
Virtual LANs (VLANs) operation across the media converter.
Easy Installation
With Auto-negotiation, the 10/100TX copper port can synchronize transmission speed and mode with
peer devices. In addition, Auto-crossover on 10/100TX copper port eliminates circuit mismatch problem
by auto-sensing the MDI/MDIX function; both features make installation easier to complete. Meanwhile,
multiple configurations can be done via DIP switches to give users more management capability for
better control over the devices.
Easy Troubleshooting
With the Link Fault Signaling (LFS) mechanism, one failed link detected on the 10/100 copper port will
force to stop a link on the fiber port, and vice versa. The copper downlink port will stop transmitting and
turned off as soon as the remote link is failed, and the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) of the connected
switch will start functioning as a result to activate the backup link that secure the network operation.
Transparent link status is delivered by LFS mechanism to make network recovery and troubleshooting
easier and faster.
