I NTRODUCTION Thank you for choosing the 1000Base Gigabit Ethernet Media Converter, The Converter introduced here provides one channel media conversion between 1000BASE-TX and 1000BASE-LX/SX. About Media Converter Media Converter is a network technology specified by IEEE 802.3ab and IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-TX/FX standards.
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. The ambient temperature should be between 32 and 104 degrees Fahrenheit (0 to 40 degrees Celsius). The relative humidity should be less than 90 percent, non-condensing. Surrounding electrical devices should not exceed the electromagnetic field (RFC) standards for IEC 801-3, Level 2 (3V/M) field strength. Make sure that the equipment receives adequate ventilation. Do not block the ventilation holes on each side of the switch or the fan exhaust port on the side or rear of the equipment.
First, install the converter onto a carrier supplied with the chassis: Step 1- Unscrew and pull out the media converter board. Step 2- Plug in the media board to any of the vacant slot. Step 3- Fit the converter onto the carrier and use the screw to secure it.
Link Pass Through Function LLCF (Link Loss Carry Forward) When a device connected to the converter and the TP line loss the link, the converter’s fiber will disconnect the link of transmit, so that the other ends will know that there is a linkage error on this end. And when the Fiber line loss the link, the converter’s TP will disconnected, and the other end will know that there is linkage problem exist. There is a default LLCF setting on this converter.
fiber was turned to forced mode, and “Off” for auto-negotiation mode. Note: Be sure the opposite end is using the same setting(forced or Auto-negotiation). And when using two converters at the same time, the two converters MUST set to forced mode. Switch 2: LLR When the switch was turned to “On”, it means that the LLR was enabled and “Off” for disabled. Note: When using two converters at the same time, then only one converter need to enable the LLR function.
