Fast Ethernet Media Converter – Installation Guide
2
Overview
This document contains instructions necessary for the installation and
operation of the Perle Fast Ethernet Media Converter Module(s) (C-100
and CM-100) that are used in conjunction with a Perle MCR Chassis.
The C-100 are unmanaged media converter modules, and the CM-100
are the managed versions. These products convert a 100Base-T cable
connection (copper) to a 100Base-X connection (fiber). The fiber
connection can be either single mode (SM) or multimode (MM) and can
operate over different wavelengths and distances, depending on the
model selected (see table below). For information on the management
options of the CM-100 module, refer to the MCR-MGT Module User’s
Guide.
