The “Canopy 150/300 Mbps Backhaul Optical Interface Upgrade Kit” allows a Canopy 150/300 Mbps Backhaul unit to be connected to a network via a 1000BaseSX fiber interface over distances of up to 550m using a 50мicrometre Multi-Mode fiber or 275m with a 62.5мicrometre Multi-Mode fiber.
The Canopy 150/300 Mbps Backhaul implements Automatic Media Selection (AMS). If both 1000BaseSX and 1000BaseT connections are present the Canopy 150/300 Mbps Backhaul unit will use the 1000BaseSX connection. If the fiber optic cable should fail the Canopy 150/300 Mbps Backhaul unit will fall back to the 1000BaseT connection.
Note: Although a distance of 550m can be achieved over the 1000BaseSX interface there is a restriction of 300m on the power cable feeding power to the 1000BaseT port.
Note: If you require fall-back to the copper Ethernet cable you must restrict the length of the copper Ethernet cable to 100m. |
