LMC280 Series Fast Ethernet Industrial Media Converters

Extend Your Network with Fibre
This media converter provides a cost-effective way to add Fibre to your existing network infrastructure. It converts 10/100Base-T(X) to 100BaseFX with ease. Additionally, this media converter supports MDI/MDIX auto detection, so you do not need to use crossover cables.

Designed for the Toughest Environments
The Fast Ethernet Industrial Media Converter provides consistent network performance in the harshest work environments on earth. It features rigid IP-30 housing, an operating temperature range of -40° to 158° F and has dual power inputs that each accept a wide voltage range (12 to 48 VDC).

Supports Link Fault Pass-Through
When one side of your network link fails, the other side continues transmitting packets and waits for a response that never arrives from the disconnected side. Link fault pass-through forces the active link to shut down as soon as it notices the other link has failed, giving the application software a chance to fix the issue. This maximizes the uptime of your network.
