Introduction

The FRM220 Family are slide-in-line cards for placement in the FRM220 Platform Media

Converter Chassis and available in a number of different models that also act as a stand-alone converter for placement in one-slot chassis. The FRM220-10/100I is a media converter for

10Base-T or 100Base-TX, data transmission over optical fiber media depending on your specific network needs. All media converters are available with either multi-mode or single-mode optical transceivers and with connectors for SC, ST or FC. In single mode, WDM

(Wave Division Multiplexing with SC connector) is also available in 20, 40, 60, or 80Km reach, which will provide the ability to transmit and receive data using only a single optical fiber.

When the FRM220-10/100I card is placed in the FRM220 rack, the In band management, can monitor, configure and control the activity of each port for both local or remote sides. For the

UTP side, auto-negotiation is default. You may set data rate to 10Mbps or 100Mbps and duplex mode to full or half duplex. The Fiber Transceiver Converters give you the freedom to extend your 10/100Mbps cabling distance by allowing connectivity up to 120 kilometers. Six

LED indicators signal the power status of the converter, UTP port speed, duplex status and

Link/Act and FX port Link/Act and FEF (Far End Fault).

Link-Fault-Pass through (LFP) Application Note

When ‘link fault pass through’function is enabled, link status on TX port will inform the FX port of the same device and vice versa. From the link fault pass through explanation in the figure below, if link fail occurs on TX port (1), the local FX port sends non-idle pattern to notify the remote FX port (2). The remote FX port then forces its TX port to link failed after receiving the non-idle pattern (4). This mechanism will alert the link fault status of local TX port to the remote converter's TX port, and the link status of the remote TX port will become down. Link status LED will also be off for both. Link Fault Pass through is enabled by setting DIP switch 4 (ON).
