The MICROSENS 12 Port Fast Ethernet Media Converter enables the direct repeaterless connection of twisted pair and fiber optical segments in a Fast Ethernet network. 
It is designed as a 19“ unit with a mounting height of 1 HU. Particularly useful is the converter for the economical conversion of numerous TX-ports to optical fiber. The flat design permits a high port density in a distribution rack.

The converter supports half as well as full duplex connections. In the full duplex mode distances of up to 2 km can be covered using multomode or up to 15 km (single mode).

The Link status of the segment is transmitted by the converter (‘Link-Through’), which means that in case of a link failure on the optical side no link on the twisted pair side is generated.

All data connections are accessible from the front, which considerably facilitates the installation and maintenance.

Multiple LEDs indicate the operating status of the converter and can be used for error diagnostics.
