Ethernet Media Converters
Introduction
The PTC-101 Ethernet-to-fiber media converters convert from 
10/100BaseT(X) to 100BaseFX. Models are available with either SC, 
ST, or LC connectors. The PTC-101 converters eliminate the need for 
additional wiring, and support IEEE 802.3 and IEEE 802.3u/x protocols 
Specifications
with 10/100M, full/half-duplex, and MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing to 
provide a total solution for your industrial Ethernet networks. The PTC-
101 is compliant with the essential sections of EN 50155, covering 
operating temperature, power input voltage, surge, ESD and vibration.
