Expanding Your 10/100 Dual-Speed Switches
The EtherFast 12, 16 and 24-Port Switches are equipped with an expansion
slot in the back of the switch into which expansion modules with different
features can be inserted.
The 100BaseFX Fiber Optic Distance Extender Module allows you to con-
nect your EtherFast 10/100 Dual-Speed Switch to other switches, hubs,
routers, or high-speed network backbones using fiber optic cabling. The
100BaseFX Fiber modules have either an ST or SC-Type connector for use
with high-bandwidth multi-mode fiber optic cabling. Fiber cable is capable
of carrying data up to 2000 meters (about 6560 feet) without requiring any
signal boosting. The modules, model numbers:
DSSXFXST (ST-Type) and
DSSXFXSC (SC-Type) are available through your Linksys dealer.
If you are installing a Fiber Optic Distance Extender module of any kind,
make sure that you consult the special section on Fiber Optics in the
Appendix before connecting any cabling.
