Media Conversion for Industrial Applications

Transition Networks

Abstract:

While network managers yearn for the latest equipment and higher speeds, budgetary restrictions impose limitations and precipitate a less than homogenous network. Inevitably, network administrators must contend with a variety of protocols, speeds, and media in their networks. Media conversion technology was developed to address these problems and has evolved from a stop gap technology into a technology that offers network administrators new choices for deploying fiber optics into their networks cost effectively. Those in industrial environments face the added challenge of creating interoperability throughout a network in less than ideal conditions. Network administrators in industrial environments are challenged to ensure network performance in harsh outdoor and factory floor conditions.
