## Summary description

The PLANET FT-1205A is a high-performance network media converter that supports data rates of up to 200 Mbit/s. It features a compact design, making it ideal for space-constrained environments. The converter is equipped with advanced technology to ensure reliable data transmission over long distances. With its plug-and-play functionality, installation is quick and easy, allowing for seamless integration into existing networks.

## Long description

PLANET FT-1205A is a compact 3-port redundant media converter that converts between 10/100Base-TX copper and 100Base-FX fiber networks. It supports up to 200 Mbit/s throughput and includes one RJ-45 Ethernet port and two SFP fiber ports. The built-in SFP slot accepts single-mode, multi-mode and WDM transceivers, allowing flexible fiber distances depending on the chosen SFP module. The unit can operate standalone or as a hot-swappable slide-in module for PLANET MC series chassis.
Advantages
The FT-1205A provides configurable operation modes via DIP switches: a 3-port Store-and-Forward Ethernet switch mode with IEEE 802.3x flow control (full-duplex) and back pressure (half-duplex), or a 2-port redundant media converter mode that offers sub-10 ms automatic link recovery for critical networks. Its SFP compatibility offers flexibility in fiber type and reach, while compact black housing suits space-constrained installations.
Suitable for
 Internet service providers and telecom networks
 Hospital and medical network links
 Banking and financial network segments
 Enterprise networks requiring fast fiber-copper conversion with redundancy
Key specifications
 Model: PLANET FT-1205A
 Data rate: up to 200 Mbit/s
 Ethernet ports (RJ-45): 1 (10/100Base-TX)
 Fiber ports: 2 (SFP, 100Base-FX)
 Maximum transfer distance: depends on SFP module (manufacturer data lists up to 60000 m for supported modules)
 Operation modes: 3-port switch or 2-port redundant media converter
 Flow control: IEEE 802.3x (full-duplex), back pressure (half-duplex)
 Color: Black
How to use
Select the desired operation mode with the onboard DIP switches: set to 3-port switch mode for normal store-and-forward switching or set to 2-port redundant mode to enable sub-10 ms automatic failover between fiber ports. Install a compatible SFP transceiver into the SFP slot to match the required fiber type and distance, then connect the copper RJ-45 port and fiber ports to the corresponding network links. The device supports plug-and-play deployment and can be used standalone or slid into a compatible PLANET MC series chassis for centralized installations.
Usage recommendations
Use appropriate 100Base-FX SFP transceivers (single-mode, multi-mode or WDM) that match the required distance and fiber type. For critical links, enable redundant mode and verify failover behavior during maintenance windows. When installed in a chassis, use hot-swap procedures recommended by PLANET to avoid service disruption.
