Allied Telesis AT-MMC2000/ST-960 convertidor de medio 1000 Mbit/s 850 nm Multimodo Gris

Máxima velocidad con la que se puede transmitir desde un dispositivo a otro.

A convertor changes one form of signal into another e.g. A/D Converter changes a signal from analog to digital. A convertor input interface is the place where a convertor connects to the product in order to input the converted signal.

The way in which the network is working, e.g. IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g.

The different speed levels of the Ethernet LAN connection.

A Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) consists of a group of computers and switches that can be physically distributed over different networks and buildings, but form one LAN on a logical level.

A Medium Dependent Interface (MDI) describes the interface (both physical and electrical) in a computer network from a physical layer implementation to the physical medium used to carry the transmission. Ethernet over twisted pair also defines a medium dependent interface crossover (MDIX) interface. Auto-MDIX ports on newer network interfaces detect if the connection would require a crossover, and automatically chooses the MDI or MDIX configuration to properly match the other end of the link.

A duplex communication system is a point-to-point system composed of two connected parties or devices that can communicate with one another in both directions, simultaneously.

The technology that enables connectivity of the device, e.g. wired or wireless.

Number of Ethernet LAN (RJ-45) ports (connecting interfaces) in the device. Ethernet LAN (RJ-45) ports allow a computer to connect to the ethernet.

The number of sockets (ports) for fibers (cables).

This terminates the end of an optical fiber, and enables quicker connection and disconnection than splicing. The connectors mechanically couple and align the cores of fibers so light can pass. Better connectors lose very little light due to reflection or misalignment of the fibers. In all there have been about 100 types of optic fiber connectors produced.

The socket/plug where the DC electricity supply connects to the device.

The greatest distance over which the data/signal can be transferred.

The distance over which a wave repeats itself. The wavelength determines the characteristics of the wave e.g. red light has a different wavelength to blue light.
