optoLAN 100BASE-TX - 100 MBit/s
The optoLAN-100BASE-TX system can be used for the optical transmission of standard Ethernet (LAN-) signals with a data rate of up to 100Mbit/s (100BASE-TX). The two transceivers are supplied by internal batteries and are connected with an optical fiber. With the optical transmission, the HSD Z connector with adapter cable and the shielded case, the system is well equipped for EMI and EME tests.
The devices are compatible to many of our automotive Ethernet transmitters 100BASE-T1, resulting in a built-in media converter (TX to T1). The devices are not downwards compatible to 10BASE-TX.
