Product Features
Full-Duplex Network
In a full-duplex network, maximum cable lengths are determined by the type
of cables that are used. See pages 1 and 2 for the cable specifications for the
different CBFTF10xx-11x models.
The 512-Bit Rule does not apply in a full-duplex network.
Half-Duplex Network (512-Bit Rule)
In a half-duplex network, the maximum cable lengths are determined by the
round trip delay limitations of each fast Ethernet collision domain. (A
collision domain is the longest path between any two terminal devices, e.g. a
terminal, switch, or router.)
The 512-Bit Rule determines the maximum length of cable permitted by
calculating the round-trip delay in bit-times (BT) of a particular collision
domain. If the result is less than or equal to 512 BTU, the path is good.
For more information on the 512-Bit Rule, see the white paper titled
“Collision Domains” on the Transition Networks website at:
www.transition.com.
Distance Extension
The CBFTF10xx-11x 3-port Bridging media converter segments up to two (2)
10Base-T copper Ethernet and/or 100Base-TX copper fast Ethernet and one
(1) 100Base-FX fiber fast Ethernet collision domains.
In a half-duplex Ethernet or fast Ethernet environment, the CBFTF10xx-11x
media converter extends network distances by segmenting collision domains
so that the 512-Bit Rule applies separately to each collision domain (see page
9).
In a full-duplex Ethernet or fast Ethernet environment, the CBFTF10xx-11x
media converter extends network distances to the physical cable limitations
imposed by the selected twisted-pair copper fiber cables (see pages 1 and 2).
Rate Conversion
The CBFTF10xx-11x media converter allows connection of 10Mb/s terminal
devices on a 10Base-T legacy Ethernet copper network to 100Mb/s terminal
devices on a 100Base-TX fast Ethernet copper network and/or to 100Mb/s
terminal devices on a 100Base-FX fast Ethernet fiber network.

Operation -- Continued
Product Features -- Continued
Congestion Reduction
The CBFTF10xx-11x media converter does not forward collision signals or
error packets from one collision domain to another, improving baseline
network performance. In addition, the media converter filters packets
destined for local devices, also reducing network congestion.
Auto-Negotiation
The Auto-Negotiation feature allows the CBFTF10xx-11x media converter to
automatically configure itself to achieve the best possible mode of operation
over a link. The media converter broadcasts its speed (10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s)
and duplex capabilities (full or half) to the other devices and negotiates the
best mode of operation. Auto-Negotiation allows quick and easy installation
because the optimal link is established automatically.
A scenario where the media converter is linked to a non-negotiating device is
a case where the user may want to disable Auto-Negotiation. In this instance,
the mode of operation will drop to the least common denominator between
the two devices (e.g.: 10 Mb/s, half-duplex). Disabling this feature gives the
user the ability to force the connection to the best mode of operation.
AutoCross™
When the AutoCross feature is activated, it allows either straight-through
(MDI) or crossover (MDI-X) copper cables to be used when connecting to
10Base-T or 100Base-TX devices. AutoCross determines the characteristics of
the connection and automatically configures the unit to link up, regardless if
the copper cable is MDI or MDI-X configuration. (Transition networks
recommends leaving the device in the default “enable” mode.)
