Stand-alone 100Base-TX to 100Base-FX converter
This stand-alone media converter bridges 100Base-TX copper ports with 100Base-FX fibre ports. It operates at the physical layer to pass data through at line speed. Network integrators use it to add fibre segments to existing Fast Ethernet copper installations.
Physical-layer conversion at 100 Mbps line rate
The device converts signals between the two 100 Mbps standards without adding store-and-forward latency. Because it works at Layer 1, the practical throughput is limited to the 100 Mbps signalling rate of both interfaces. It does not perform switching, filtering or auto-negotiation beyond the physical medium.
Single-mode fibre with 6 km reach
The FX port uses a single-mode optical interface rated for distances up to 6 km. This reach determines whether the converter suits a given campus or building link. Buyers needing longer spans or multi-mode connectivity must select a different model.

Questions about this item
Which version should I choose for a 100 Mbps copper-to-fiber link?
This model converts 100Base-TX copper to 100Base-FX fiber at line speed, so select it when you need a direct 100 Mbps media conversion without rate change.
What does the 100 Mbps line-speed rating mean once installed?
Data passes through the converter at full 100 Mbps with no buffering delay, keeping latency at the physical layer minimum for time-sensitive applications.
What interface standard does the FX port use and what distance does it support?
The FX port follows the 100Base-FX standard for multi-mode fiber; the achievable distance depends on the fiber grade and link budget of the connected optics.
