The ION C2210 is a media converter module that provides an interface between 10/100Base-TX ports and 100Base-FX ports, allowing users to integrate fiber optic cabling into 10/100 copper environments. Operating at Layer 2, the data link layer, this converter not only converts copper to fiber, it also provides rate conversion allowing legacy 10Base-T copper devices to connect to 100Base-FX fiber. The ION C2210 is a manageable device when installed in a managed ION chassis.
Features
- Auto-Negotiation of speed and duplex on TP port
- Auto-MDI/MDIX on TP port
- Link Pass Through (LPT)
- Far-End-Fault (FEF) detection
- Pause (Software Controlled)
- Automatic Link Restoration
- Field Upgradeable Firmware
- Can be used in any ION Platform Chassis
- Standards based, will link with any Standard 10/100Base-TX and any Standard 100Base-FX ports
Manageable Features
- Report converter status to chassis management software:
- TP and Fiber Link Status
- Hardware switch settings
- Copper Port Speed
- TP and Fiber Port Duplex
- Fault condition
- Write operation includes:
- Power on/off device
