1. Introduction
The industrial rated KSD-103 Fast Ethernet switch series supports three switching-base segment
communications and benefit the following applications and make fiber deployment easier :
Copper to fiber bridging converter
Multimode fiber to single mode fiber bridging converter
Fiber cable extender
Cascaded fiber networking
Depending on the types of the network ports, two different model series are defined as follows:
Model Copper Port (RJ-45) Fiber Port
KSD-103-A 2 ports 1 port
KSD-103-B 1 port 2 ports
The switch also provide the following advantages:
Plug and Play
No configuration is required in using the switches. With the featured auto-negotiation function, the
switches can detect and configure the connection speed and duplex automatically for the copper ports.
The switches also provide auto MDI/MDI-X function, which can detect the connected cable and switch
the transmission wire pair and receiving pair automatically. This auto-crossover function can simplify
the type of network cables used.
Industrial Features
For industrial environment, the devices are designed with the following enhanced features exceeding
that of commercial Ethernet switches:
5/20
High and wide operating Temperature
Power input interface: Industrial screw terminal block and DC power jack for external
commercial power adapter as option
Screw panel and DIN rail mounting support for industrial enclosure
Industrial-rated Emission and Immunity performance
1.1 Features
Provide 3 switching-base network segments
Auto MDI/MDI-X crossover function on the TP copper port
Support IEEE 802.3x flow control for full-duplex operation
Support Back-pressure flow control for half-duplex operation
Wide operating temperature range for temperature critical environment
Support DIN-rail mounting and panel mounting
Provide two power input types to meet more application needs
