Lancast transceivers from Metrobility Optical
Systems provide high-performance connections
between bridges, routers, servers, workstations
and other peripherals in 10Mbps or 100Mbps
networks. The compact units attach in the
narrowest of spaces without interfering with
other interfaces. A full complement of LEDs
provide indication of normal operation and
network diagnostics. These standards-based
transceivers are compatible with Ethernet and
Fast Ethernet devices from other network tech-
nology providers, ensuring high throughput
performance in multi-vendor environments.
Lancast 4320 10Mbps Transceiver
The Lancast 4320 series transceivers for
10Mbps LANs connect Ethernet peripherals to
10BASE-T, 10BASE-FL or 10BASE-2 networks.
The convenient location of the connectors,
plus their extremely small size and locking-post
design, allow for installation in limited space.
In addition to a 15-pin DB-type connector and
a full complement of LEDs, each transceiver
also incorporates a simple, user-selectable DIP
switch for Signal Quality Error (SQE), thus
allowing fast, easy setup in a variety of network
configurations.
Lancast 6221/6224 100Mbps Transceiver
The Lancast 6221 and 6224 transceivers
provide 100Mbps connectivity for desktop PCs
and servers as well as bridges, switches and
routers. A four-position DIP switch provides
convenient user-selectable control of configura-
tion and interoperability by the network integra-
tor. The 6224 transceiver for 10/100BASE-TX
supports user-enabled auto-negotiation for half-
duplex or full-duplex operation and for 10 or
100Mbps data rates. The 6221 transceiver
for 100BASE-FX utilizes full-duplex technology
in 100Mbps LANs, and supports links up to
2km over multimode and up to 15km over
singlemode fiber optic cable. Transceivers with
MT-RJ or VF-45 connectors are also available
for versatile network connnections.
