both horizontal and
vertical orientation.
Support all major
operating systems.
Enable you to connect
your PC directly to
your fiber optic
networ .
No hardware jumpers
or switches required
for operation.

on the copper side.
T
he BLACK BOX®family of Fiber
Adapters brings low-cost
fiberoptic connecti ity to your
desktop.
PCI Fiber Adapters
These 32-bit, bus-mastering
PCI Fiber Adapters are a ailable
in 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or
autosensing 10/100-Mbps
Ethernet.
The adapters fully comply with
IEEE 802.3 10BASE-FL and 802.3u
100BASE-FX standards, ensuring
compatibility and quality with
existing network hardware. PCI
Fiber Adapters support UNIX,
No ell®, LAN Manager™,
Banyan™, and other popular LAN
protocols.
The LH1351C features both a
dual-speed 10/100BASE-TX
copper port and a 100BASE-FX
fiber port, pro iding an upgrade
path to mo e your network from
10BASE-T to 100BASE-TX to
100BASE-FX.

KeyFeatures
FIBERADAPTERS
Copper-and-fiber PCI Fiber
Adapters (LE1352C-ST, LE1353C-
SC, LH1351C) pro ide automatic
fallback for network redundancy.
Although only one port—copper
or fiber—is operational at one
time, both ports can be connected
to an appropriate cable. If the
primary connection fails, the card
instantly switches to the second
connection without a reboot. This
feature enables you to use the
copper port as a backup to the
fiber port—if the fiber port fails,
the card automatically switches
to the copper port. The card then
continuously monitors your
network for a restored link. When
the fiber link is restored, the card
automatically and seamlessly
switches back to the primary link.
This redundancy helps to
ensure that access to mission-
critical data remains
uninterrupted.
The adapters also ha e
comprehensi e sets of status
indicators, alerting you to such
items as link status and acti ity for
each link, and collisions.
All of the PCI cards operate
without the need for hardware
jumpers or switches. They
support full-duplex up to 1.2 miles
(1.9 km) as well as half-duplex to
1,312 ft. (399.9 m).
ISA Fiber Adapter
The ISA card (LE1351C)
enables you to connect older PCs
with ISA slots to a 10BASE-T or
10BASE-FX network. It’s software
configurable with no jumpers or
switches and supports shared-
memory or I/O-port modes for the
ISA interface.
