Alloy FCR200MT Fast Ethernet Media Converter

The Alloy FCR200MT is a versatile and reliable Fast Ethernet media converter designed for converting 10/100Base-TX copper connections to 100Base-FX multimode fibre with a maximum fibre cable range of 2 kilometers. Ideal for network environments requiring robust and flexible connectivity options, this unit operates either as a standalone device or as a slide-in module compatible with the Alloy DCR12 Series 12-slot media converter chassis.

Key Features:

• Dual-purpose design: Use standalone or install into Alloy DCR12 chassis for rackmount applications.
• High compatibility: Features auto-sensing 10/100Mbps RJ-45 port supporting UTP/STP copper cables to 100m and MT-RJ terminated multimode fibre with up to 2 km range.
• Link Fault Passthrough (LFP): Supports Forced Mode (FM) and Far-end-Fault (FEF) to enhance network fault detection and link integrity.
• Flexible power options: Powered by external plugpack or USB power from a host USB port in standalone usage.
• Robust construction: Compact, rugged all-metal enclosure with clear LED indicators and DIP switch for easy configuration.
• Auto-negotiation & flow control: Supports link speed and duplex auto-negotiation, 802.3x flow control in full duplex, and backpressure in half duplex.
