Transition Networks M/E-TX-FX-01-NA SFP transceiver 10/100Base-TX 100Base-FX

SKU CH-C353-XERPB MPN M/E-TX-FX-01-NA

Converts copper Fast Ethernet to fibre at 100 Mbit/s with auto-negotiation and auto-crossover

  • FeatureNetwork Technology:10/100Base-TX Network Technology:100Base-
  • Weight1.99
  • Package ContentsRG1802
  • Connects copper and fibre in Fast Ethernet environments using 10/100Base-TX and 100Base-FX interfaces
  • Extends network reach beyond twisted-pair limits with fibre transmission up to 100 Mbps

  • RoHS and WEEE compliant for environmentally responsible deployment

Fiber Integration for Fast Ethernet

This mini media converter integrates fiber optic cabling into copper-rich Fast Ethernet environments. It operates as a layer-1 device to retransmit signals without store-and-forward packet inspection delays. Auto-negotiation per 802.3U and autocross simplify the link establishment. The unit is RoHS and WEEE compliant for green deployment.

Flexible Form Factors for Network Builds

The transceiver fits rack-mountable, desktop or wall-mountable installations to suit diverse infrastructure layouts. It extends network distance far beyond the limits of twisted-pair copper cabling. Low-latency design preserves performance for time-sensitive applications. Package contents include item RG1802 for immediate deployment.

100 Mbps Capacity with Copper Reach Limits

The module handles 10/100Base-TX and 100Base-FX network technologies for Fast Ethernet speeds. It comfortably manages standard Fast Ethernet loads where fiber distance extension is required. Copper segments remain constrained to their native distance limitations. Buyers needing gigabit or multi-gigabit throughput should select a higher-speed transceiver.

Questions about this item

What distance limit appears first when this transceiver runs continuously at 100Base-FX speeds?

The 100Base-FX fiber link supports up to 2 km, which is the first hard limit reached under sustained full-load traffic.

How much heat or noise does the M/E-TX-FX-01-NA produce during all-day operation?

It has no fan and draws under 1 W, so it runs silently with negligible heat rise in a rack or desktop mount.

What existing network gear must I already have to use this transceiver?

You need a free SFP slot on a switch or media converter that accepts 10/100Base-TX and 100Base-FX modules.
