powered. These converters are designed to install directly inside a PC workstation
or file server and mount on any slot on a standard PCI. No additional power
supply is needed since the power is drawn directly from the PCI slot. Two LEDs
allow for network monitoring.
The E-100BTX-FX-N-01 series media converter is 4.8 in. (121 mm) wide while the
E-100BTX-FX-NLP-01 series media converter is 3.2 in (80 mm) wide.
