About Power Over Ethernet (PoE) and IE-MiniMc LFPT and Telco/LFPT
Power Over Ethernet technology allows the IE-MiniMc LFPT and Telco/LFPT to be a
Powered Device (PD) and draw power when connected to Power Sourcing
Equipment (PSE). Power Sourcing Equipment distributes an electrical current across
existing copper data cabling.
LED Operation
Each IE-MiniMc LFPT and Telco/LFPT includes two LEDs, located on the RJ-45
connector.
LED functions are as follows:
FX LNK/ACT Glows green when a link is established on the fiber port; blinks green
when activity is detected on the fiber port.
TX LNK/ACT Glows amber when a link is established on the copper port; blinks
amber when activity is detected on the copper port.
Link Fault Pass Through (LFPT)
LFPT is a troubleshooting feature that combines TX Link Loss and FX Link Loss on
each media converter. LFPT is permanently enabled on the IE-MiniMc LFPT and
Telco/LFPT, and if two of them are installed back to back, a failure on any segment
will be propagated across all links and all LEDs will extinguish.
NOTE
A fault on any segment will force all LINK LEDs off.
