2.2 Product Desc ription
Magnum 15E Fast Et hernet Media Con vert ers offer a convenient and graceful way
to convert and transmit data among twisted pair and fiber network cabling environments.
They allow the use of fiber media with full-duplex devices such as Fast Ethernet
Switching Hubs (managed and unmanaged), an d may sometimes be used with shared
(half-duplex) Fast Ethernet segments as well. They offer a compact, cost-effective way
to adapt a p r e-existing Ethernet cabling configuration as n etwork requirements chan ge.
Magnum 15E Media Converters are designed for quick and easy installation
even in very tight spaces. Media cables are easily attached. Magnum 15E Media
Converters feature an up-link switch on the TX port to eliminate the need for a special
cross-over cable when connecting the TX port to a hub or concentrator. Because o f their
compact size, Magnum Media Converters can be Velcro®-mounted on an office wall or
the side of a desk or cabinet. The external power supply plugs into a nearby AC wall

socket or power strip . Each converter features a full set of LEDs that convey essential
diagnostic and status information. See Section 4.1, LED Indicators, for specific LED
function information.
Magnum 15E Media Converters are designed to provide low-temperature
operation over an extended period to make them some of the most reliable in the
industry. Their high-strength fabricated metal packaging shields against Radio
Frequency Interference (RFI) and El ect romagnetic Interference (EMI), avoiding
interference with other nearby electronic devices.
The Magnum 15E units comply with the IEEE 802.3u (100BASE-TX and
100BASE-FX) specification for 100 Mb/sec traffic via shielded (STP) or unshielded
twisted pair (UTP) segments.

2.3 Features and Benefits
Reduces Network Costs
Magnum 15E Media Converters offer an ideal solution to quickly and
inexpensively connect Twisted-Pair TX with Fiber FX segments.
Full-duple x or Half-duplex trans par ent operation
15Es can be used in full-duplex fiber segments for distances up to 2Km
for the multi-mode model and up to 15Km for the single mode model.
Low PDV for Maximum Cable Lengths in Shared Segments
Magnum 15E Media Converters add signal timing delays of only 80 Bit
Times in a shared half-duplex segment, less than a Class II Fast Ethernet
Repeater (90 to 95 BT typical), and can be used to attach fiber cab l es to
TX ports with minimum distance loss in the overall collision domain.
