1. Introduction LevelOne media converters are Fast Ethernet 100Base-TX to 100Base-FX and 1000Base-T to 1000Base-SX/LX converters to provide the flexibility required in network integration. The TX port auto-sense connection speed, auto-negotiates half/full duplex modes and auto-selects MDIX media type. The fiber connectors come with multimode or singlemode, SC, ST or SFP connector to provide necessary connection interface and distance capabilities.
Gigabit Ethernet Module Comply with IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, and 802.3x, IEEE 802.3ab, 1000BaseT, 802.3z, 1000BaseSX/LX standards Convert between UTP cabling and Fiber-optic cabling. One RJ-45 connector, Auto-MDI/MDIX for UTP port. Support 10/100/1000 Mbps Auto-negotiation for UTP port Fiber cabling connectivity up to 70Km. Store-and-forward switching to separate two collision domains. One fiber connector (SC / SFP) for 1000Base-SX/LX DIP-switches to set the operation mode function.

Blinks The unit is transmitting or receiving packets Off No device attached Orange The UTP port is operating in full-duplex mode. Blinks Collision of Packets occurs in the port.
2.4. DIP-switch The DIP-switch is used to configure operation mode for LLF (Link Lost Forwarding) and operation mode for UTP/Fiber port. The default value of DIPswitch is OFF.
Link Lost Forwarding: When LLF is enable, allow UTP link failures to be reported to the fiber side and also allow Fiber link failure to be reported to the UTP side. Therefore, A link loss forward feature is provided in both UTP and Fiber side. Pure Converter mode (Fast Ethernet Module): When pure converter mode is enabling (on), it operates with the minimum latency.
3. Cabling Fast Ethernet Module Twisted-pair segment can be use unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cabling. The cable must comply with the IEEE 802.3u 100Base TX standard for Category 5. The cable between the converter and the link partner (switch, hub, workstation, etc.) must be less than 100 meters (328 ft.) long. Fiber segment using multi-mode connector type must use 50 or 62.5/125 um multi-mode fiber cable. You can connect two devices up to a 2-kilometer (6,562 ft.
