POE120 Series 10/100 Base-TX to 100Base-FX Converter POE Powered Device Version 1.
1. Overview The POE120 Series IEEE 802.3u compliant media converters support two types of media 10/100 Base-TX and 100Base-FX. With LFP (Link Fault Propagation) support it allows the administrator to easily diagnose link faults on their network. If the Copper or Fibre link fails, the converter forces the link status of the connecting device to also fail. The POE120 Series media converters are fully compliant to the IEEE 802.3af standard.
4. Installing the Converter 4.1 POE120 converter connected to a Power Sourcing Equipment Device (PSE) 1. Connect the copper cable to your IEEE 802.3af compliant PSE device. The POE120 can also work as a standard media converter and connect to a non POE device. (power supply is optional) 2. Connect the fibre cable to your connecting device. Note: - Please make sure that the 802.3af power is being supplied from a PSE device to the PD Media Converter. - In case there is no 802.

WDM Single Fibre Model The POE120 Series media converter has an optional Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) Model that can transport bi-directional full duplex signals over a single fibre simultaneously.
. Link Failure Propagation The POE120 Series media converters support Link Failure Propagation (LFP). If the Copper port is unplugged, the converter stops transmission on the fibre port. This causes the remote fibre node link to fail as well. The LED’s on the converter will now show link failure on both the copper and fibre ports. If the fibre link fails, the converter restarts auto-negotiation on the copper port but always stays in the link failure state.
. LED Description The following table describes the LED’s located on the POE100 Series media converter.
