PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The 1002MC IndustrialMedia Converter is
designed to allow the connection of 10/100/1000BaseT
Ethernet devices to your 1000BaseSX/LX fi ber cabling
infrastructure.
The 1002MC provides one RJ-45 auto sensing
10/100/1000BaseT port and one 1000BaseSX/LX SFP
port. The RJ-45 port is full/half duplex capable, using
"state of the art" Ethernet switching technology. The
1002MC auto-negotiates the speed and fl ow control
capabilities of the copper port, and confi gures itself
automatically. The 1000BaseSX/LX fi ber optic port
utilizes industry standard SFP transceivers with LC
style connectors and is configured for full duplex
operation. Both multimode and singlemode fiber
models are available.
Since the 1002MC uses switching technology, unlike
most media converters, 10Mbps devices can be connected
today and upgraded to 1000Mbps tomorrow. The
switching fabric simply scales up or down automatically
to match your specifi c network environment.
The
1002MC supports up to 1,024 MAC
addresses, providing support for extremely
sophisticated and complex network architectures.
The N-TRON 1002MC is well suited to convert
10/100/1000 BaseT industrial devices to fi ber, allowing
you to take advantage of your fi ber based infrastructure
and it's inherent advantages. Compared to copper based
systems, fi ber provides increased noise immunity and
longer cable lengths.
The 1002MC is engineered to withstand the extremes
of industrial environments and carries an impressive
operating temperature rating of -40ºC to 85ºC. For
cost savings and convenience the media converter can
be DIN-Rail mounted alongside Ethernet I/O or other
Industrial Equipment.
The unique compact size provides a small footprint,
conserving space in the most critical dimension. In
addition, as with other DIN-Rail devices, the 1002MC
can be panel mounted by using our 1000-PM kit.
To increase reliability, the 1002MC contains redundant
power inputs. LEDs are provided to display the link status
and activity of each port, as well as powern on/off status.
