About the MiniMc
The MiniMc is a 10/100 Auto Negotiating miniature media converter. It is available
in a fixed optical 1x9transceiver version, dual or single strand, as well as an SFP
version. The optical transceiver port always operates at 100 Mbps full duplex. The
copper port auto-senses the connected device's speed (10Mbps or 100Mbps) and
duplex mode (HDX or FDX including Flow Control). The MiniMc offers plug-and-
play operation, including the AutoCross MDI/MDIX feature which automatically
corrects for errors in cable selection making the distinction between a "straight
through" cable and a "crossover" cable unimportant. The MiniMc allows jumbo
packets of up to 1916 bytes.
The MiniMc can be installed in an IMC Networks PowerTray/18 (IMC P/N 850-
13086) or used as a standalone converter. As a standalone converter the MiniMc
can be powered by the supplied AC/DC wall adapter, or an optional USB power
cable (IMC P/N 806-39628) for use with high power USB host ports.
