The S.I.Tech 2351 is a board-level Ethernet-to-fiber optic converter designed for 10 Mbps IEEE 802.3 networks, using an Intel 82595 controller and fitting a half-card form factor measuring 3.5" x 6.5". It operates from a 5V bus supply consuming 5 watts, supports multimode or single-mode fiber with transmission distances up to 2 km (or 5 km and 10 km options), and uses an ST optical connector with SMA options. The device features 32 KB onboard buffer memory, LED status indicators for TX/RX/Link/Col, and operates from 0°C to 50°C. It is UL and CSA listed and meets FCC Class B, Part 15 requirements. A companion fiber optic transceiver is required at the remote end for full system operation.
S.I.Tech 2351 Ethernet to fiber Bit-Driver ® is board level fiber optic communication product fully tested for compatibility with leading 16-Bit ISA bus computers including IBM AT's and compatibles, Providing complete compatibility to the widest variety of PC platforms though a proven buffered slave architecture, Desktop Management Interface (DMI) equipped drivers provide board client PC manageability. The use of this board in a computer requires that a companion fiber optic transceiver (see fig. 1) be located at the termination end to any Ethernet medium, AUI, coax or twisted pair.
