1. Introduction
TL-SM201 series modules use fiber or Cat.5 Twisted-pair as
transmission media, cooperate with TP-LINK Switches. It can
effectively extend the diameter and bandwidth of the workgroup. TL-
SM201 series of fiber module is fully compliant with IEEE802.3u
protocol. It's wavelengh is about 1310nm. TL-SM201U UTP module is
fully compliant with IEEE802.3u protocol, support 10/100M Auto-
Negotiation and Auto-MDI/MDIX function. TL-SM201 series of module
is easy to use, can be installed inside the Switch which supply power
directly. TL-SM201 module can cooperate with some sort of TP-LINK
Switches to work .The led indicators upon the module indicate working
condition of the TL-SM201 Series Modules.
