General Description

The 10BASE-T/10BASE-FL Ethernet media converter is
designed to be a connection interface between a 10BASE-T
Ethernet UTP cable and 10BASE-FL fiber ca ble with no
increasing on the hop count in the network. It features a
RJ-45 connector and a pair of fiber optic connectors. This
guide covers the following three models to support
different fiber cables as follows:

Converter/T UTP to multimode fiber with ST connectors
Converter/C UTP to multimode fiber with SC connectors
Converter/S UTP to single mode fiber with ST connectors
