ALLOY FCR200SC.10015 Gigabit Standalone/Rackmount Media Converter
Overview
The FCR200SC.10015, a FCR200 Series Fast Ethernet Media Converter, can be
used 'Standalone' or installed in an Alloy DCR12 Series Media Converter Chassis,
and has a 100Base-TX and a 100Base-FX 1550nm singlemode SC port. Max. fibre
cable range 100Km.
The FCR200SC.10015 is a dual purpose Fast Ethernet Media Converter. It can be
used as a standalone discrete device, or can be installed as a Media Converter
Module into any Alloy DCR12 Series 12-slot Media Converter Chassis. Whichever
mode the FCR200SC.10015 is used in, it is a flexible solution ideal for a wide
variety of media conversion applications in Fast Ethernet network environments.
With dual 100Base-TX auto-sensing 10/100Mbps RJ-45 and 100Base-FX SC terminated
singlemode ports utilising the 1550nm wavelength (1300nm models also available),
the FCR200SC.8015 is an ideal solution for UTP/STP copper to Fast Ethernet
singlemode fibre media conversion tasks. The RJ-45 port supports Fast Ethernet
and Ethernet UTP/STP links at up to a 100 metres range, and the 100Base-FX port
has a maximum fibre cable range of up to 100 kilometres.
The FCR200SC.10015 is a model from Alloy's FCR200 Series of Dual Purpose
Media Converters. As mentioned above, these Converters can be used 'standalone'
or installed in an Alloy DCR12 Series Media Converter chassis. Models in the
series support most types of Fast Ethernet media conversion, including
10/100Mbps RJ-45 copper to 100Base-FX multimode fibre (with LC, SC, ST or MT-RJ
connectors, maximum fibre cable range of 2Km), 10/100Mbps RJ-45 copper to
100Base-FX singlemode fibre (SC connectors; 5, 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100Km ranges
with individual models supporting 1300nm or 1550nm wavelengths) and 10/100Mbps
RJ-45 copper to 100Base-FX WDM singlemode/singlecore fibre (SC connectors with
20, 40, 60, 80 or 100Km range, with send and receive datastreams mutliplexed
over a single fibre core). All models in the range are housed in a compact,
highly durable all-metal case.
When used in 'standalone' mode as a discrete Media Converter device, all
models in the FCR200 Series can be powered either by an external plugpack
(supplied with the Converter), or via a supplied USB cable which can derive
power from any v1.1, v2 or V3 USB port. All FCR200 Series models have
comprehensive LED suite enabling status monitoring of the Converter, and also a
DIP Switch array on the side panel which is used to manually set LFP status (see
below) and/or link speed/duplex mode settings. The RJ-45 port on all models is
auto-sensing MDI/MDIX, with speed, duplex mode and DTE/DCE mode automatically
sensed and set.
A particular feature to note for all FCR200 Series Converters is their
support for Link Fault Passthrough (LFP) in both Far-end-Fault (FEF) and Forced
Modes (FM). LFP allows these Media Converters to monitor both the fibre and
copper RX ports for signal loss. In the case of a loss of RX signal on one media
port, the Converter will automatically disable the TX signal to the other media
port, thus passing through the link fault LED status. FEF mode enables the
Converter to stop sending a link pulse to a LFP capable Converter on the other
end of the cable; the link partner Converter will synchronously stop sending
data, preventing loss of valuable data transmitted over an invalid link.
Combining FM and FEF LFP functions supports troubleshooting and network security
capability, as both end devices can be notified of a loss of fibre link and a
managed switch connected to a FCR200 Series Converter can be configured to
disable the link and notify administrators of the event.
