3COM 3C512210 FIBER CONVERTER TR TRANSCEIVER

Description

The 3Com Fiber Converter TR supports IEEE 802.5 standard Token Ring network communications over optical fiber cable at either 4 or 16 MBPS data rates. The Fiber Converter is best suited for communications between: end stations and hubs, internetworking devices (switches, routers, etc.) and hubs, two or more hubs via Ring In/Ring Out connections. The Fiber Converter TR automatically selects between 4 MBPS and 16 Mbps data rates. This simplifies installation and guarantees correct operation without interrupting ring communications. The Fiber Converter TR provides fault tolerant operation by detecting faults on both fiber and copper connections in lobe repeater mode.
