FAQs
What is ASF 2.0 and why is it important?
ASF 2.0 (Alert Standard Format) is a management standard that enables remote monitoring, alerting, and control of computer systems even when the operating system is not running or has failed. This is critical for data centres and managed environments where on-site intervention must be minimised.
What is the maximum distance this adapter can transmit over fibre?
The A102ELC-ASF supports up to 2 kilometres over multimode fibre optic cable, making it suitable for extended campus networks and inter-building connections.
Is this adapter compatible with my existing network infrastructure?
This adapter uses a standard LC connector and complies with IEEE 802.3u 100Base-FX standards, making it compatible with most multimode fibre infrastructure. Verify your fibre type (multimode) before purchase.
What are the bandwidth capabilities of this adapter?
The adapter delivers 100 Mbps in standard mode and up to 200 Mbps in full duplex mode, suitable for most workstation and server applications.
Does this adapter support remote booting?
Yes, the A102ELC-ASF supports PXE (Preboot Execution Environment), RPL (Remote Program Load), and BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol), enabling network-based system deployment and maintenance.
What warranty is included with this product?
The A102ELC-ASF is backed by a 36-month manufacturer warranty, providing long-term reliability assurance.
