2.2 DIP-Switch 
The DIP-Switch is used to configure operation mode for LFP (Link Fault Pass-
Through) and operation mode for UTP/Fiber port. The default value of DIP-switch is 
OFF.

Link Fault Pass-Through (DIP-Switch 2): When LFP is enabled, it allows UTP link 
failures to be reported to the fiber side and also allows Fiber link failures to be reported 
to the UTP side. Therefore, a link loss forwarding feature is provided in both UTP and 
Fiber side. 
Note  Please don’t change the DIP-switch setting when UTP or fiber port is 
transmitting or receiving data. It may cause some data error. Besides, if you 
change the DIP-switch setting, please power off the converter and power on 
again to make the setting effective.
