A.2 FRM220-1000A In-band (802.3ah) Managed Fiber Gigabit Media Converter (to be announced)
The FRM220-1000A is an IEEE802.3ah in-band managed optical fiber media converter for 10/100/1000Base
Ethernet to gigabit fiber that also provides NMS functions for Link-Loss-Forwarding, Remote-Monitoring-Status,
and Loop-Back-Test. These optional features are especially useful when the standalone units are linked to the
FRM220 with SNMP management. When auto-negotiation is selected, these units will automatically tailor
themselves to convert 10, 100, 1000 full or half duplex, depending on your specific network needs. A unique
feature of the FRM-1000A converter is the use of a common PCB card which may either be used as a standalone
converter (FRM220-CH01) or placed in the FRM220 rack.
