Description: This is a media converter (100BTX-FX-05 SMHT) with (1) 100BaseTX (RJ-45) and (1) 100BaseFX 1300nm single mode SC port. AutoCross technology eliminates an entire category of network troubleshooting by automatically matching crossed and uncrossed cables to the appropriate connection. The twisted pair port is instantaneously configured to the correct MDI or MDI-X configuration. Transition Networks guarantees compatibility with any 10/100 compliant port. This feature allows you to force the proper port configuration through an external switch on the converter, unlike other products that ship in Auto-Negotiation mode and may require both hardware and software configuration.This media converter automatically detects and reports loss of link on a connection, which allows the equipment at the remote end of a link failure to "see" this failure and respond with corrective actions, such as Spanning Tree fail-over links, proprietary trunking links, or failure reports through SNMP or RMON procedures built into the switch, router or hub.Because it can automatically detect faults in a link, link failures are reported properly to all devices on the network so that network problems can be diagnosed and corrected quickly. The converter will also automatically re-establish link when connected to two 10/100 auto-negotiating switches if link is lost. With other manufacturers' converters the user must intervene to re-establish link. Used in pairs, this media converter can extend distances between Minimize
