10/100Base-TX Ethernet to
100Base-FX Multi-Mode (ADAM-6541)
and WDM Single Strand (ADAM-6542)
Fiber Optics Converter
The ADAM-6541 and 6542 are industrial grade converters which are designed to
convert Ethernet network (10/100Base-TX) to a ber optic network (100Base-FX). They
transparently convert Ethernet signals into optic signals. The advantages of ber optics
are wide bandwidth, EMI protection and less interference at long-distance transmissions.
Therefore, the ADAM-6541 and 6542 are ideal solutions for “ber-to-building” applications
at central ofces or local sites.
High-speed Transmission
The ADAM-6541 and 6542 support MDI/MDI-X of auto detection, so crossover wires
are not required. They also include a switch controller that can sense the transmission
speed (10/100 Mbps) automatically. Both the Ethernet port and the ber port have
memory buffers that support a store-and-forward mechanism, assuring that data can
be transmitted properly.
Industrial Ethernet Networking
WDM Single Strand Fiber
The ADAM-6542 uses WDM technology that increases the information carrying capacity of
ber via multiplex transmission and reception of signals at different wavelengths on a single
strand cable. The WDM technology is implemented in couples. One site is installed with
ADAM-6542/W15 where the transmission channel is 1550nm and the reception channel
is 1310nm. The other site is installed with an ADAM6542/W13 where the transmission
channel is 1310nm and the reception channel is 1550nm. Both transmission and reception
channels of ADAM-6542/W15 and ADAM-6542/W13 are multiplexed to a single strand
cable. So you can cut your cabling costs in half when you use ADAM-6542/W15 and
ADAM-6542/W13 instead of a dual ber converter.
Industrial Grade Design
The ADAM-6541/6542 are extremely compact and they can be mounted via DIN rail, on
a panel, or they can be piggy backed on top of each other.
The ADAM-6541 and ADAM-6542 provide three LED indicators: power, LNK/ACT, and
10/100 Mbps, which eases troubleshooting.
The ADAM-6541/6542 can work normally at -10 to 70° C and accept wide unregulated
voltage ranges from +10 ~ 30 V
DC
. Besides, the ADAM-6541/6542 also provide 3,000
V
DC
surge protection to protect them from being damaged by over-voltage. Suitable for
any harsh operating environment.
