EIMK Industrial Ethernet Media ConvertersMaking the Copper to Fibre Connection The EIMK Skorpion Media Converter series makes the conversion of an Ethernet copper segment to fibre simple. By operating full-duplex at 100 Mbps provides the highest possible performance on 100 Mbps links. The EIMK is a true media converter and not just a two-port Ethernet switch. Therefore performance is enhanced by not introducing the store-and-forward data latency inherent in a switch. Both multimode and single-mode models are available with ST or SC connectors. Fibre distances of up to 15 km are possible with the single-mode model — up to 2 km with the multimode models. On the copper side, both MDI and MDIX ports are available to compliment either an end station port or a switch port. Crossover functionality is accomplished on the fibre side by simply reversing fibre connections. DIN-rail mounting Rugged metal enclosure Diagnostic LEDs Enhanced EMC compliance UL 508 listed, c-UL listed, CE mark 24 VAC/VDC powered • Plug-and-Play operation • 100BASE-TX/100BASE-FX conversion • Shielded RJ-45 and SC/ST-style fibre optic connectors • Full-duplex operation • MDI and MDIX copper ports

Data Sheet — EIMK Overview Each of the three models supports full-duplex operation for 100BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX segments. Two models support multimode fibre optic connections: the EIMK-100T/FT makes the fibre optic connection via ST-style connectors, whereas the EIMK-100T/FC does so via SC connectors. The model EIMK-100T/FCS supports single-mode fibre via SC connectors. Maximum distance with 62.5/125 µm multimode fibre cables is 2 km while single-mode fibre can span up to 15 km. Two RJ-45 connectors (one MDIX port and one MDI port) allow either straight-through or crossover copper cabling....

Data Sheet — Applied voltage must be in the specified range and deliver a current commensurate with power consumption. The recommended size for solid power conductors is 16-20 AWG; and for stranded conductors use 16-18 AWG. Zero volts (COM) is isolated from chassis (earth). Input connections are reverse-polarity protected.
