Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 Introduction The ADAM-6541 is an industrial grade converter designed to convert Ethernet network (10/100Base-TX) to fiber network (100Base-FX). It transparently converts Ethernet signals into optic signals. The advantages of Fiber optic are wide bandwidth, anti-EMI and suitable for long-distance transmission. Therefore, ADAM-6541 is an ideal solution for “fiber to building” application in central offices or local sites.

Chapter 2 Installation
In this chapter, you will be given an overview of the ADAM-6541 hardware installation procedures. 2.1 Front / Rear View There are six network LEDs located on the top panel of the ADAM-6541, each with its own specific function.
Figure 2-2 ADAM-6541-Rear Panel 2.2 Full / Half-Duplex Selection There are two modes of data transmissions, full-duplex and half-duplex transmission. The data can be transmitted in both directions on a single carrier at the same time when you select Full-duplex mode. But the data can only be transmitted in one direction on a single carrier at the same time when you select Half-duplex mode. You may select Full or half-duplex mode according to your equipment requirement.
2.3 Connecting the Hardware Next, we will explain how to find a proper location for your ADAM-6541, connect to the network, hook up the power cable, and connect to the ADAM6541 Ethernet port. 2.3.1 Choosing a Location Due to its versatility and innovative design, the ADAM-6541 can be: • fixed to a panel mount • fixed to a DIN Rail. • Piggyback Stack Panel Mounting The ADAM-6541 can be attached to a wall using the included metal brackets. Each bracket comes with four screws.
DIN Rail Mounting You can mount the ADAM-6541 on a standard DIN Rail. First, using two screws, attach the metal plate to the DIN Rail bracket. Because the screw heads are beveled, the tops of the screws will be flush with the metal plate. Din Rail Mounting Brackets-Orientation of Metal Plates: A more convenient way is to screw the metal plate with the DIN rail bracket assembly to the bottom of the server. Next, use the remaining screws to put the metal plate on the bottom of the ADAM-6541.
Piggyback Stack ADAM-6541 can be stacked as seen in the figure below. Figure2-5 Piggyback Stack 2.4 Network Connection 2.4.1 Connection to the devices The ADAM-6541 consists of one fiber and one RJ-45 port. Each of the converter’s twisted-pair ports can be used to connect a station or other device. Use a straight-through twisted-pair cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. The twisted-pair cable extended from a twisted-pair port is called a “twisted-pair segment,” that can be up to 100 meters long.
through cable or crossover cable. The connection can be made from ADAM-6541’s ports to other Hub or Switch, such as MDI-X port or uplink MDI port. ADAM-6541 supports auto crossover to easily and flexibly network users’ connections. You can connect any RJ-45 (MDI-X) station port on the switch to any device such as a switch or a bridge or router. 2.4.3 Connection to fiber network Connecting to the fiber network segment with three-bud fiber. You can use fiber standards via 50/125, 62.5/125 µm (Core/Clad).
