1. Introduction LevelOne media converters are Fast Ethernet 100Base-TX to 100Base-FX and 1000Base-T to 1000Base-SX/LX converters to provide the flexibility required in network integration. The TX port auto-sense connection speed, auto-negotiates half/full duplex modes and auto-selects MDIX media type. The fiber connectors come with multimode or singlemode, SC, ST or SFP connector to provide necessary connection interface and distance capabilities.
