1.2 About the 10/100Base-TX to 100Base-FX Smart Media Converter
The FST-81x series Smart Media Converter provide Media conversion between 10/100Base-TX and 100Base-FX interfaces, such as multi-mode ST/SC connectors (2km), single-mode SC connector (15/35/50km), single-mode LC
connectors (2/20/40/60km) and single fiber connector (WDM,20km) fiber connection options for various application.
The FST-81x series Smart Media Converter provide Auto MDI/MDI-X on its TP port and store-and-forward mechanism for
eliminate faulty packets. Use the DIP switch from the FST-81x to configure the available smart functions, such as the flow
control / Link Pass Through function (LLCF/LLR). The Flow Control function allows FST-81x supported routers and servers
to directly connect to FST-81x for fast, reliable data transfer. The Link Loss Carry Forward (LLCF) function works with Link
Loss Return (LLR) to diagnose network connections. Furthermore, the LLR function can immediately alarm network administrator the media link issue and provide efficient solution to monitor the entire network.
The FST-81x series allows two easy types of connection. These Smart Media Converters can be used as a standalone unit
when powered by its DC adapter or used as a slide-in module to the PLANET 19-inch Web Smart / Managed 16-Slots
Media Converter Chassis (MC-1600MR/MC-1600MR48 & MC-1610MR / MC-1610MR48). When working with the Web
Smart / Managed Media Converter Chassis, the FST-81x is able to be centrally managed and its status be monitored
through the local RS-232 console and remote web interface.
Ingress / Egress bandwidth control function support on both TP and Fiber interface of FST-81x to enhance bandwidth
utilization, Before FST-81x power outage situation appears, the new Dying Gasp feature enables network administrator to
receive message from FST-81x and get information about FST-81x loss power for further check and restore.
Moreover, when FST-81x is installed into MC-1610MR / MC-1610MR48 Managed Media Converter Chassis, the
TS-1000/802.3ah OAM protocol (operations, administration, and maintenance) function helps remote device be centrally
managed and monitored under Managed Media Converter Chassis Web interface.
