The iConverter 10T/2 is a 10Base-T to 10Base-2 media converter that converts between twisted pair (UTP) and coax LANs and joins their collision domains. The iConverter 10T/2 facilitates the connection of a coax segment to a 10Base-T hub. When using a pair of iConverter 10T/2 converters back to back, they can connect between two 10Base-T hubs via coax.

The iConverter product family meets the needs of a broad range of LAN and MAN usersThe iConverter supports the IEEE 802.3 standard and provides an extensive range of connectivity options across different media. The iConverter 10T/2 is a 10BASE-T to 10BASE-2 media converter that converts between twisted pair (UTP) and coax LANs and joins their collision domains. The iConverter 10T/2 facilitates the connection of a coax segment to a 10BASE-T hub. When using a pair of iConverter 10T/2 converters back to back, they can connect between two 10BASE-T hubs via coax. On the UTP side, the iConverter 10T/2 uses a modular EIA/TIA 568 RJ45 connector that supports categories 3, 4 or 5 wiring and connects to distances up to 100 m (328 ft.). The iConverter 10T/2 detects and corrects wiring polarity reversals, and features a crossover switch that facilitates a straight-through cable connection to a workstation or a hub and eliminates the need for a crossed cable.On the coax side, the iConverter 10T/2 utilizes a BNC connector and supports a 50 ohm cable and distances of up to 185 m (606 ft.). Per IEEE 802.3 standard, up to 30 workstations can be attached to the coax segment. The iConverter 10T/2 features a convenient and cost-effective cable termination via a termination switch and a built-in termination element.Like all iConverter modules, the 10T/2 is hot swappable and supports four mounting options. It can be mounted in a 19-Module (2U, 3.5 inch high) or 5-Module (1U, 1.75 inch high) space-saving rack-mountable chassis (19-inch or 23-inch) with any combination of redundant AC and 48VDC power supplies. It can also be mounted in a 2-Module AC or 48VDC powered chassis or in a 1-Module AC powered chassis.Features:The iConverter 10T/2 is an IEEE 802.3 compatible 10BASE-T copper twisted pair (UTP) to 10BASE-2 coax converterSeamlessly connects 10BASE-T hubs via coax and coax network segments to 10BASE-T hubsSupports EIA/TIA 568 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) categories 3, 4 and 5 wiringSupports 50 ohm coax to a maximum distance of 185 m (606 ft.) and 30 stationsFeatures a UTP crossover switch and automatic polarity detection and correctionFeatures switch-selectable coax line termination for convenience, space and cost savingLEDs displays for immediate visual status of each portUser-selectable link fault detection modes facilitate quick fault detection, isolation, and reportingTelnet or serial port interface module configurationModules are hot-swappable in 19-Module, a 5-Module, a 2 Module or 1-Module chassisLifetime Warranty and Free 24/7 Tech Support
