4000 Router Series Interface Module Guide

MIM-2FE/MIM-4FE

Introduction

2/4-port 10/100Base-TX Fast Ethernet interface module (MIM-2FE/MIM-4FE) serves to complete

communications between routers and LANs.

FE modules support:

• Effective transmission distance of 100 meters with category-5 twisted pair cables;

• Operating speeds of both 100 Mbps and 10 Mbps and autosensing;

• Both full duplex (in common use) and half-duplex operating modes.
