Allied Telesyn AT MCF112/SM

Allied Telesyn AT MCF112/SM ... converters, all housed in a single slim, 19" rackmountable unit. With a range of fiber connector styles for SC, ST, MT-RJ and VF-45 and supporting both multi-mode and single-mode fiber cabling, these media converters allow inter-connectivity of Fast Ethernet networks at distances of up to 40km.

The AT-MCF112 media converters can be installed as unmanaged devices, making them extremely cost-effective. All of the converters are easily upgradable with management in the field by the installation of a slidein management module, the AT-MCM02.

All ports support the Allied Telesyn Missing Link feature, which allows the media converters to truly propagate Fast Ethernet 'Link' signals. Multiple channels on a media converter can therefore be used to provide resilient links to copper based switches supporting these features. For added security, all the media converters support an optional redundant internal power supply and both power supplies can be "hot" inserted and removed enabling zero down-time during maintenance.

Designed for optimal use in managed networks, each port can independently operate with a managed port configured for either half or Full Duplex. Additionally, the Link test feature allows the user to check the operation of the installed fiber cable without the need for expensive test equipment or with other active components connected to the UTP channel ports on the media converter.
