AT-FS2 3 8
2-port single strand fiber media converter, 10/100TX (RJ-45) to 100FX (SC),
(1310nm TX/1550nm RX) or (1550nm TX/1310nm RX) with distances up to 15km
Extend Networks
FS200 Series switches are the ideal
solution when the time comes to
upgrade a traditional 10Mbps Ethernet
network or extend a 100Mbps Fast
Ethernet network. The FS200 Series is
designed to extend the distance of the
network by converting Fast Ethernet
data between twisted pair cabling and
single-mode fiber-optic cabling. The
FS200 features a 100FX fiber-port
and a 10/100TX twisted-pair port.
The fiber-optic port features an SC
connector and an operating distance
of 2 kilometers (6,561 feet) to 40
kilometers (24.9 miles) depending on
the model. The twisted-pair port has
an RJ-45 connector with a maximum
operating distance of 100 meters (328
feet).
The Allied Telesis AT-FS238 media
converter is a 10/100Mbps copper
to single-mode fiber media converter
which can send and receive on single
strand fiber (1310nm TX/1550nm RX)
or (1550nm TX /1310nm RX). These
units are designed to be used in pairs
in a network topology to provide
point-to-point access. The AT-FS238
converts 10/100TX (RJ-45) to 100FX
(SC) and will transmit up to 15km on
high quality fiber optic cable. Both
ports feature full- and half-duplex
operation. The AT-FS238 is easy to
install and does not require software
configuration or management.
Additionally, it can be used almost
anywhere due to its small physical size,
choice of external power supplies and
rack-mounting options.
VLAN Support
Many new backbone switch products
now support the industry-standard
IEEE 802.1Q specification for Virtual
LANs (VLANs) that send extra-long
data packets on the network. FS200
Series switches are fully compatible
with these long packets, enabling
them to be used in modern networks.
Switches not supporting this feature
will discard these extra-long packets,
making them unsuitable for modern
networks.
Small and Flexible
The small size and external power
supply of the FS200 Series allows
them to be used almost anywhere.
Additionally, they can be mounted in a
chassis along with Allied Telesis media
converters, allowing users to construct
any mix of network conversions when
they add the optional redundant power
supply.
MissingLinkTM and Smart
MissingLink
The MissingLink feature allows the
ports on the media converter to pass
the Link status of their connections to
each other. When the media converter
detects a problem with a port—such

as the loss of connection to a node—it
shuts down the connection to the
other port, thereby notifying the node
that the connection has been lost.
The Smart MissingLink (SML) feature
monitors network connections and
provides notification when network
segments fail, allowing network
managers to quickly identify the source
and location of failed segments and
minimize downtime.
