Figure A-3 EPIM-100FMB
The EPIM-100FMB acts as a non-filtering bridge. Its purpose is to extend
the Broadcast Domain of a shared access 100BASE-T LAN, so that a full
length of fiber optic cable can be used to reach the next domain or more
typically to a switch port.
The maximum 100BASE-T collision domain using UTP cable to the
desktop and fiber cable in the next domain or switch port is only 263
meters (100 meters of UTP and 163 meters of fiber optics). There are
circumstances where the maximum fiber optic cable length of 163 meters
does not meet some requirements such as in the cabling of high rise
buildings or campus environments. The EPIM-100FMB helps meet these
requirements by extending the maximum fiber optic cable length that can
be used from 163 meters to 400 meters.
