10/100BASE-TX to 100BASE-FX Media Converter 2. Overview 2.1 Introduction LBMC300-MMST and LBMC300-MMSC converters provide one channel for media conversion between 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX. They can be used as a standalone device or with a standard 19” chassis as shown in Figure 2-1. An LBMC300-MMST or LBMC300-MMSC media converter provides one TX port and one FX port. For the FX port, you can use multimode fiber cable with an SC or ST connector, depending on the model.
Chapter 2: Overview • Non-blocking full wire-speed forwarding rate • Support broadcast storm filtering • Backpressure and IEEE 802.3x compliant flow control • Front-panel status LEDs • External AC to DC power adapter • Used as a standalone device or with a chassis • Hot-swappable when used with a chassis 2.3 What’s Included Your package should contain the following items.

Chapter 3: DIP Switch Settings 3. DIP Switch Settings A close-up view of the DIP switches appears in Figure 3-1. Settings for the 6-position DIP switch are described in Table 3-1. Figure 3-1. DIP switches. Table 3.1 DIP switch settings.
10/100BASE-TX to 100BASE-FX Media Converter To set the DIP switches: 1. First, disconnect the converter from the power. Then toggle Pin 2 of the DIP switch to the up position to enable the forced mode for TX port. NOTE: Pin 2 must be toggled up before setting speed and duplex mode manually. 2. Toggle down Pin 3 to force the TX port at the speed of 100 Mbps. Or toggle up Pin 3 for 10-Mbps speed. 3. Toggle down Pin 4 to force the TX port at full-duplex mode. Or toggle up Pin 4 for half-duplex mode. 4.
Chapter 4: LED Indicators 4. LED Indicators The LED indicators give you instant feedback on status of the converter. Table 4-1. LED indicators and their functions.
10/100BASE-TX to 100BASE-FX Media Converter 5. Link-Fault-Passthrough Connect the FX ports of Media Converters A and B through the fiber cable. 1. Link Fault on the FX port of Media Converter A: A Link Fault condition will be sensed on the TX port whenever Media Converter A detects a Link Fault condition on the FX port. Thus, the 100, LNK/ACT, and FDX/COL LEDs of the TX port of Media Converter A would be off. 2.
Chapter 6: Installation 6. Installation This chapter gives step-by-step installation instructions for the converter. 6.1 Selecting a Site for the Equipment As with any electric device, you should place the equipment where it will not be subjected to extreme temperatures, humidity, or electromagnetic interference.
