Link Protector
• 10/100 Base-T(x) to 10/100 Base-T(x)
Ethernet/Fast Ethernet
• Three RJ-45 Ports
The CBFTF1010-130 is a fault-tolerant redundant link protector that provides redundant
paths for fast Ethernet devices. It has three RJ-45 ports. As a redundant link protector,
typically, the main port connects to a critical 10/100 fast Ethernet device. The primary
port and the backup port connect to two different switch ports or two different ports on
separate switches. When the unit powers up, it checks the primary port for a link signal; if
the signal is present, the main and primary ports connect and the signal from the backup
port is then disabled. Any device connected to the backup port will not detect a signal at
this time. However, if the device does not detect a signal on the primary port, then the
main port and backup port connect.
Optional functionality controlled via DIP switches enable changing the transceiver from
fault-tolerant mode to switch mode.

    With redundancy enable and the primary port fails, the converter automatically switches data transfer responsibilities to the backup port without disrupting network The CBFTF1010-130 bridging media converter has three RJ-45 10/100Base-TX traffic. After the primary port's failure is resolved, the converter automatically ports.
