Fast Ethernet Module
§ Twisted-pair segment can be use unshielded twisted pair (UTP)
or shielded twisted pair (STP) cabling. The cable must comply
with the IEEE 802.3u 100Base TX standard for Category 5. The
cable between the converter and the link partner (switch, hub,
workstation, etc.) must be less than 100 meters (328 ft.) long.
§ Fiber segment using multi-mode connector type must use 50 or
62.5/125 um multi-mode fiber cable. You can connect two
devices up to a 2-kilometer (6,562 ft.) distance.
§ Fiber segment using single-mode connector type must use
8/125 or 9/125 um single-mode fiber cable. You can connect two
devices in the distance of 40 Kilometers in full duplex operation.
For half-duplex operation, the recommended maximum distance
is 412 meters (1,352 ft.)
Gigabit Ethernet Module
§ Using four twisted-pair, Category 5 cabling for RJ-45 port
connection. The cable between the converter and the link
partner (switch, hub, workstation, etc.) must be less than 100
meters (328 ft.) long.
§ Fiber segment using multi-mode connector type must use 50 or
62.5/125 um multi-mode fiber cable. You can connect two
devices up to 550m distances.
§ Fiber segment using single-mode connector type must use
8/125 or 9/125 um single-mode fiber cable. You can connect two
devices in the distance of 80 Kilometers in full duplex operation.
For half-duplex operation, the recommended maximum distance
is 412 meters (1,352 ft.)
