The PTC-101 Ethernet to fibre optic media converters convert from 10/100BaseT(X) to 100BaseFX. The models are available with either SC, ST or LC connectors. The PTC-101 converters eliminate the need for additional cabling and support IEEE 802.3 and IEEE 802.3u/x protocols with 10/100M, full/half duplex and MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing to provide a complete solution for your industrial Ethernet networks. The PTC-101 fulfils the mandatory requirements of EN 50155 in terms of operating temperature, input voltage, overvoltage, ESD and vibration as well as conformal coating and power isolation, making the switches suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
