Moxa CSM-200 ethernet-to-fibre modules for NRack System
06 May, 2010 byMoxa has released the CSM-200 series of slide-in ethernet-to-fibre modules for the NRack System. The modules provide media conversion from 10/100baseT(X) to 100baseFX (SC or ST connector) for fibre-optic transmission up to 40 km. For secure remote failure detection of connected devices, the CSM-200 series supports the TS-1000 protocol. Via a DIP switch, users can switch between store-and-forward mode for high-performance throughput and cut-through mode for real-time response. The CSM-200 series also features hot swapping, so modules can be installed or removed without interrupting the entire system.
