SRS-1110-F Fiber Media Converter Features: 10/100/1000Base-T to 100Base-X
Fully designed to operate in extreme temperatures |
Perle SR-1110-F Industrial Media Converters only use components that are fully qualified and rated to operate in -40F to +167F. There are other products on the market that claim to operate at -40F to +167F however, they use “commercial-grade” components that have not been qualified by the manufacturer (OEM) to operate at the claimed temperature ranges. When “commercial-grade” parts are exposed to extremely high or low temperatures, product failures are inevitable. For example, integrated circuits on the PCB overheat causing premature failures. Under-rated connectors do not allow for proper contact between the device and the cables. These failures eventually stop all data communications in these high and low temperature environments. By choosing Perle you can be confident you will not be subjected to these failures. |
DIN Rail Enclosure | Easily mount on a DIN rail or inside distribution boxes using native DIN Rail enclosure with grounding clip. No need for add-on brackets. |
Auto-Negotiation |
The media converter supports auto negotiation. The 1000Base-X fiber interface negotiates according to 802.3 clause 37. The 10/100/1000Base-T negotiates according to 802.3 clause 28 and 40. The 1000Base-X will link up with its partner after the highest common denominator (HCD) is reached and the copper has linked up with its partner. The 1000Base-X will continue to cycle through negotiation transmitting a remote fault of offline (provided this is enabled through the switch setting) until the copper is linked up and the HCDs match. The media converter supports auto-negotiation of full duplex, half duplex, remote fault, full duplex pause, asymmetric pause and Auto MDI-X. |
Auto-MDIX |
Auto-MDIX (automatic medium-dependant interface crossover) detects the signaling on the copper ethernet interface to determine the type of cable connected (straight-through or crossover) and automatically configures the connection when enabled. The media converter can also correct for wires swapped within a pair. The media converter will adjust for up to 120ns of delay skew between the 1000Base-T pairs. |
Smart Link Pass-Through | When Smart Link Pass-Through mode is enable, the Ethernet copper port will reflect the state of the Ethernet fiber media converter port. This feature can be used whether fiber auto-negotiation is enabled or disabled. |
Fiber Fault Alert | With Fiber Fault Alert the state of the Ethernet fiber receiver is passed to the Ethernet fiber transmitter. This provides fault notification to the partner device attached to the Ethernet fiber interface of the media converter. If the Ethernet fiber transmitter is off, as a result of this fault, it will be turned on periodically to allow the condition to clear should the partner device on the Ethernet fiber be using a similar technique. This eliminates the possibility of lockouts that occur with some media converters. Applies only when fiber auto-negotiation is disabled. |
Pause (IEEE 802.3xy) | Pause signaling is an IEEE feature that temporarily suspends data transmission between two devices in the event that one of the devices becomes overwhelmed. The media converter supports pause negotiation on the 10/100/1000Base-T copper connection and 1000Base-X fiber connection. |
Duplex | Full and half duplex operation supported. |
Jumbo Packets | Transparent to jumbo packets up to 10KB. |
VLAN | Transparent to VLAN tagged packets. |
Remote LoopBack | Capable of performing a loopback on the 1000Base-X fiber interface. |

|
Auto Negotiation | Auto (Deafault-Up): In this mode of operation the media converter will negotiate Ethernet parameters on both the copper and the fiber connection. This will ensure the most optimal connection parameters will be in effect. If connecting to another Perle Gigabit Media Converter, this parameter should be set to Auto. Off: Copper Negotiation should only be turned off, if the copper link partner does not support copper link negotiations. |
Smart Link Pass-Through | Standard Mode (Default-Up): In this mode, with Fiber Negotiation set off, the links on the fiber and copper sides can be brought up and down independently of each other. A loss of link on either the fiber link or copper link can take place without affecting the other connection. However, if the Fiber Negotiation is set to Auto, then a loss of link on the copper side will result in a loss of link on the fiber side but not vice versa. Smart Link Pass-Through: In this mode, the link state on one connection is directly reflected through the media converter to the other connection. If link is lost on one of the connections, then the other link will be brought down by the media converter. |
Loopback | Disabled (Default-Up): The loopback feature is disabled. This is the normal position for regular operation. The switch must be set to this position for data to pass through the media converter. Enabled: This is a test mode. All data received on the receive (RX) fiber connection is looped back to the transmit (TX) fiber connection. The state of the copper is not relevant and no data or link status is passed through to the copper side. |
Fiber Fault Alert | Enabled (Default-Up): In this mode, when Fiber negotiation is turned on, if the media converter detects a loss of fiber signal on the fiber receiver it will immediately disable its fiber transmitter signal. This notifies the fiber link partner that an error condition exists on the fiber connection.
If the remote media converter is set up for FFA Enabled and the local media converter is set up with Smart Link Pass-Through, a loss of fiber link on either the transmit or receive line will be passed through to the local copper connection to notify the connected device. If the media converter has been set to Smart Link Pass-Through mode, the effect will be the same as FFA since the link loss on the fiber receiver will result in bringing down the copper link, which will in turn cause the transmit fiber link to be brought down. Disabled: In this mode, the media converter will not monitor for fiber fault. |
Duplex Mode | Auto (Deafault-Up): In this mode, when Fiber Negotiation has been turned off, the media converter will use this Duplex setting for its Ethernet parameter negotiation on the copper connection. In the Auto position, the media converter will advertise support for both Full and Half Duplex mode. The resultant negotiation will provide the most optimum connection. Half: In this mode, the media converter will force the negotiation to Half Duplex mode |
Copper Speed | 100 (Default-Up): In this mode, when Auto Neg (copper) is set to off, the media converter will use this switch setting for its Ethernet copper speed connection.The media converter will force the speed to 100 Mbps. 10: The media converter will force the speed to 10 Mbps |

However, to reduce costs, or where there are limits on available fiber, WDM technology may be utilized. WDM uses separate transmit and receive frequencies to communicate on a single fiber strand. WDM technology relies on the fact that optical fibers can carry many wavelengths of light simultaneously without interaction between each wavelength. Thus, a single fiber can carry many separate wavelength signals or channels simultaneously. So remember, if Single Strand fiber is used, you will need an “Up” Media Converter on one side and a “Down” Media Converter on the other for copper to fiber conversion. Perle offers a wide variety of Single Fiber (“Up/Down”) Media Converters to connect 10BaseT, Fast Ethernet and Gigabit to single fiber. Whether you need Managed or Unmanaged, Standalone or Modular Chassis Based, 20km or 120km, Perle has the right model to meet your fiber conversion requirement. |
