Can a 100Mbps optical-to-electrical converter module negotiate with a 10 Gigabit Ethernet connection
The 10/100/1000M media converters are designed to transmit and receive data over optical fiber. Also, apparently, the Nexuses (Nexi?) won't negotiate down to 100mb on gigabit SFPs. I tried looking this morning but I'm having trouble finding anything supported. Any suggestions for 100mb native SFPs for copper, not fiber? I can just put in another switch in between to handle it, which is what I. 100BASE FX SFP remains a widely used solution for deploying 100Mbps fiber connectivity in industrial, enterprise, and legacy Fast Ethernet networks. The optical interface operates at a 100Mbps Ethernet rate. LED indicators are provided for rapidly. I have a USB to Ethernet converter which has 10/100 PHY and I want to connect that PHY to the gigabit Ethernet PHY.
