The LBH100A-SCStandard Media Converter Switch does more than just adapt from one cable type to another. It's a true Ethernet switch and behaves like a switch within your Ethernet network. This means you can connect them together indefinitely without worrying about inter-repeater links. Each Media Converter Switch features non-blocking switching architecture with a 2K MAC address table. The 128K buffer memory makes it easy to interconnect 10- and 100-Mbps devices. This Multimode models support up to 2 kilometers (1.2 mi.) between Media Converter Switches.
This standard Media Converter Switch is for use in clean, temperature-controlled environments such as offices and wiring closets. Media Converter Switches are also available in Hardened versions for industrial environments and Extreme versions for outdoor environments. Because all three types work together seamlessly, you can use inexpensive Standard Media Converter Switches in the protection of the wiring closet and choose the more robust Hardened or Extreme Media Converter Switches for harsh locations at your network's edge.
Because it's a switch as well as a media converter, Media Converter Switches provide more options in network topology, overcoming the distance limitations inherent with simple media converters - to add extra distance, just daisy-chain another Media Converter Switch. It is super simple to set up and use - just plug and go! Both copper ports are autosensing for speed and duplex, adjusting to the connected device automatically. Plus, the UTP ports feature Auto MDI/MDI-X, eliminating the need for crossover cables. Each Media Converter Switch has two full sets of LED indicators: one set on the front for viewing convenience when the Media Converter Switch is DIN rail or wall-mounted, and one set mounted in the end next to the media ports for easy viewing when units are in the optional rackmount tray.
The LBH100A-SC fits in where you need it. It comes with neat, removable rubber feet so you can use it as a standalone unit. Or you can easily panel-mount it with the included brackets and screws. There is a 115-VAC power supply.
