Allied Telesyn AT-FS202SC/FS2

Allied Telesyn AT-FS202SC/FS2 ... required and the AT-FS20X switches provide the ideal solution. The AT-FS202 series of switches allows any copper network to be extended over a Fast Ethernet fiber link up to distances of 100km.

Many new backbone switch products now support the industry standard IEEE 802.1Q specification for VLANs (Virtual LANs), which requires extra long data packets to be sent on the network. The AT-FS20X switches have been designed to be fully compatible with these long packets, allowing them to be used in modern networks. Switches not supporting this feature will discard these extra long packets, making them unsuitable for modern networks.

The switches can be used almost anywhere due to their small physical size and external power supply. Alternatively, they can be mounted in a chassis along with Allied Telesyn's media converters. This allows users to construct any mix of network conversions, with the additional option of a redundant power supply.
