Chapter 1
Overview
The AT-MC115XL and AT-MC116XL are Ethernet and Fast Ethernet media
converters designed to transfer Ethernet data between twisted pair cabling
and multimod e fiber optic cabling . Thes e media conve rters a llow you to ex tend
the distance of your network up to 300 meters (984 feet) or 2 kilometers (1.2
miles), depending on the operating speed.
The AT-MC115XL and AT-MC116XL media converters have a 10Base-T/
100Base-TX twisted pair port and a 10 Base-FL/100Base-SX fiber optic port.
The twisted pair port has an RJ-45 connector and a maximum operating
distance of 100 meters (328 feet). The fiber optic port has either a SC or ST
connector, depending on the model. Both ports can operate at either 10 Mbps
or 100 Mbps and feature half- and full-duplex operation.
The AT-MC115XL and AT-MC116XL media converters can be used on a
desktop or in an AT-MCR12 chassis. These units are easy to install and do not
require software configuration or management.

Table 1 lists the maximum operating distances for the AT-MC115XL and
AT-MC116XL media converters. The maximum distance of the fiber optic port
depends on the operating speed.

Key Features
The media converters have the following key features:
❑LEDs for unit and port status
❑Auto-negotiation for both speed and duplex mode on both ports
❑MissingLink notifies end-nodes of link failures
❑MDI/MDI-X switch that eliminates the need for a crossover cable
❑NML/LNK TST button that performs a link test on the media
converter
❑External AC/DC power adapters (North America, Continental, or
Europe)
❑Standard size for use on a desktop or in an AT-MCR12 rackmount
chassis

Overview
Twisted Pair Port
The AT-MC115XL and AT-MC116XL media converters have one 10Base-T/
100Base-TX twisted pair port. The twisted pair port features a RJ-45
connector. The m aximum operating distance for the twisted pair port is 100
meters (328 feet) when operating at either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps.
Fiber Optic Port
The AT-MC115XL and AT-MC116XL media converters have one 10Base-FL/
100Base-SX port. The fiber optic port features either an SC or ST connector,
depending on the model. The maximum operating distance for the fiber optic
port for both the AT-MC115XL and AT-MC116XL is 2 kilometers (1.2 miles)
when operating at 10 Mbps and 300 meters (984 feet) when operating at 100
Mbps.
Auto-negotiation
Port Speed
The twisted pair port is compliant with the 10Base-T and 100Base-TX
standards and is capable of either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps operation. Since the
port is IEEE 802.3u auto-negotiation compliant, the media co nverter sets the
port speed automatically. With auto-negotiation, the speed of the port is set
automatically by the media converter after it determines the speed of the endnode connected to the port. Auto-negotiation is designed to ensure that the
port on the me dia conve rter and the en d- node a re o perat ing at th e sam e s peed
and that they are communicating at the highest possible common speed of the
devices.
The fiber optic port is compliant with the 10Base-FL and 100Base-SX
standards and can auto-negotiate the operating speed. The end-node
connected to the fiber optic port on the media converter must also be able to
operate at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or auto- negotiate the operating speed.
Note
The end-nodes connected to the ports on the media converter must be
able to operate at the same speed.
