About This Item
Overview
Details
Installed in a high density Perle Media Converter Chassis, Perle's feature rich CM-100MM Fast Ethernet Fiber to Fiber Managed Media Converter Module enables transparent fiber extension of 100Base-FX multimode fiber to 100Base-FX multimode or 100Base-LX/EX/ZX/BX single mode fiber.
Perle's advanced features make the end to end fiber link completely transparent. This allows for more efficient troubleshooting and less on-site maintenance. When used with a Media Converter Management Module in the chassis, configuration and monitoring of the fiber ports can be performed. In addition, a lifetime warranty and free worldwide technical support make Perle's CM-100MM Fast Ethernet Fiber to Fiber Managed Media Converter Modules the smart choice for IT professionals.
For those environments requiring a medium to large-scale deployment of media converters, a centralized platform that simplifies the configuration, administration, monitoring, and troubleshooting of this gear is recommended. PerleVIEW Device Management software is a multi-user, Windows server-based application that delivers this level of Enterprise-grade solution.
Whether you need to extend multimode to multimode or multimode to single mode, Perle has an extensive range of CM-100MM Fast Ethernet Fiber to Fiber Managed Media Converter Modules to meet your fiber conversion requirement.

| Backup and Restore | Provides fast and easy module replacement. Management module will always save a copy of the media converter configuration and will restore this configuration automatically to the media module when it is detected in the slot. |
| Link Pass-Through | When enabled, the state of the receiver on one 100Base-X interface is reflected on the other 100Base-X fiber transmitter. If disabled, the 100Base-X fiber interfaces operate independently. Far-End Fault indication on the 100Base-FX fiber interface has no effect on the other interface. Using Link Pass-Through with Far-End
Fault minimizes data loss when a fault occurs. If a fault occurs, the
end devices have the indication of a failure available to making trouble
shooting easier. |
| Far-End Fault (FEF) | When enabled, the media converter
transmits the Far-End Fault Indication over the fiber connection
whenever a receive failure is detected. The media converter
continuously monitors the fiber connection and clears the Far-End
Fault Indication condition when a valid signal is received. |
| 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 is transparent to Pause frames. |
| Signal Regeneration | Signal Regeneration maintains signal integrity and allows for maximum fiber to fiber connections without degradation. |
| Cascading | Media Converters can be cascaded. Two or more Media Converters can be chained in a link to achieve even greater distances. |
| VLAN | The Media Converter is transparent to VLAN tagged packets. |
| Remote Loopback | The Media Converter can perform a loopback on each 100Base-X fiber interface. |
