Product overview
The Flashlink ETH100 is a 10Base-T/100BaseTX to fibre converter module in the Network
Flashlink family. The module converts a standard 10 or 100 Mbit/s Ethernet signal on copper
to fibre suitable for long haul applications. The module has two electrical Ethernet ports. The
ports are independent of each other, and can be used for 10 or 100Mbit/s Ethernet. Both
ports can be used simultaneously. The fibre link is always 100Mbit/s, and can be used in one
or two fibre installations, or occupy two wavelengths in a WDM, CWDM or DWDM
installation.
For DWDM applications the module has an electrical output which can be connected to a
standard DWDM E/O converter (e.g. SDI-EO-D15xx.xx) together with the optical input. The
module is designed to replace a receiver card in a standard DWDM frame, giving the system
designers flexibility in customising their systems.
