ADAM-6541 User Manual viii
CHAPTER 1 2 Overview This chapter gives an overview of ADAM-6541 modules.
Chapter 1 Overview 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.
1.2 Features • Compact size economizes space • Direct plug and play • Easy to mount on a DIN-rail, panel or piggyback • Supports full/half-duplex flow control • Supports MDI/MDI-X auto crossover • Embedded switch controller, supports auto-negotiation • Embedded memory buffer, supports store and forward transmission • Supports +10 ~ 30 VDC voltage • Supports operating temperature from -10 ~ 65° C 1.

CHAPTER 2 2 Installation In this chapter, you will be given an overview of the ADAM-6541 hardware installation procedures.
Chapter 2 Installation 2.1 LED Indicators There are six network LEDs located on the top panel of the ADAM-6541, each with its own specific function. Table 2.
2.2 Dimensions (units:mm) l Figure 2.1: ADAM-6541-Front Panel Figure 2.
2.3 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 halfduplex mode according to your equipment requirements.
2.4 Connecting the Hardware Next, we will explain how to find a proper location for your ADAM6541, connect to the network, hook up the power cable, and connect to the ADAM-6541 Ethernet port. 2.4.1 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. Figure 2.
Piggyback Stack ADAM-6541 can be stacked as seen in the figure below. Figure 2.5: Figure2-5 Piggyback Stack 2.5 Network Connection 2.5.1 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.
2.5.2 Connection to other Hubs or Switch ADAM-6541 has an RJ-45 port that supports the connection to 10Mbps Ethernet or 100Mbps Fast Ethernet, and half or full duplex operation. ADAM-6541 can be connected to other hub or switch via a two-pair straight 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.
A APPENDIX 2 Pin Assignments & Wiring
