Fast Ethernet Fiber to Fiber Media Module – Installation Guide

    

Overview 

This document contains instructions necessary for the installation 
and operation of the Perle Fast Ethernet Fiber to Fiber Media 
Converter Module(s) (C-100MM and CM-100MM) that are used in 
conjunction with a Perle MCR chassis. The C-100MM are the 
unmanaged media converter modules, and the CM-100MM are 
the managed versions. These products allow dissimilar 100Base-X 
fiber interfaces to connect to each other. 

These are the fiber to fiber conversion models: 

 

Multimode to Multimode   (MM) 

 

Multimode to Single Mode  (SM) 

 

Multimode to Single Mode Single Strand  (SM) 

These media converter modules operate over different 
wavelengths and distances, depending on the model selected 
(See tables below). For information on the management options of 
the CM-100MM converter module, refer to the MCR-MGT Module 
User’s Guide.
