This port also offers automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection that gives the device true "plug-n-play" capability - just plug the network cable into the port and the port will adjust according to the end-node device automatically. The RJ-45 connector is suitable for UTP cable of Category 3, 4, 5 or better. 100Base-FX port The 100BASE-FX port has a fiber Fast Ethernet link to your network device. Compliant with IEEE 802.3u, this port can transmits data at 100Mbps in full duplex mode across distances of up to 2km over multi-mode fiber-optic cable, and 30km over single-mode fiber-optic cable. The fiber port has SC fiber connectors. LED Indicators This Converter has LED indicators located at the front of the device. The LEDs have been designed to give at-a-glance readings of different conditions and provides 'real-time' connectivity information. Below is an interpretation of their functions: LED 100 LNK/ACT FDX/COL PWR Condition On (Green) Off On (Green) Flashing (Green) Off On (Amber) Flashing (Amber) Off On (Green) Off Port and Unit LEDs Status The port is operating at 100Mbps The port is operating at 10Mbps Illuminated when connectors are attached Data traffic passing through port No valid link established on port Port is operating at full-duplex Indicates collisions Port is operating at half-duplex converter is receiving power Power off or failure On (Red) LFS Off Disruption of connection in copper or fiber segment Copper / fiber segment is normal 6
