“Man” and the UTP DIP-switches to the settings of the
connected devices.
2. Connect the UTP port to a 1000BASE-T Ethernet
device using a Category 5 cable (or better).
3. Connect the ber optic port to a 1000BASE-X Gigabit
Ethernet device using a single-mode or multimode
ber cable (as appropriate). When connecting dual
ber models, the miConverter Gx transmitter (Tx) must
attach to the receiver side of its link partner; the receiver
(Rx) must attach to the transmitter. When connecting
single-ber (SF) models, the Tx wavelength on one end
has to match the Rx wavelength on the other. Based
on this guideline, the SF media converter models must
be used in pairs, such as the 1210-2-x matched with
the 1211-2-x.
4. Mount the miConverter Gx using the included Velcro
®
strips or optional wall-mounting bracket kit (P/N 1091-0).
5. Connect the appropriate power supply.
DIP-SWITCH SETTINGS:
DESCRIPTION:
The miConverter
™
Gx converts between 1000BASE-T
copper and 1000BASE-X Gigabit Ethernet fiber.
The fiber optic port supports Auto-negotiation and
Manual conguration via DIP-switches. The UTP port
automatically detects and advertises the Duplex and
Pause abilities of connected Gigabit ber optic and
UTP devices.
The 1000BASE-X ber port supports ST and SC ber
connectors. Single-ber and dual ber models are listed
in the table on the rst page of this manual.
WARNING!
Before inserting the Power Adapter, verify
that the power on the unit is appropriate
for your AC line voltage source.
POWER ADAPTER NOTICE:
This product should only be used with Omnitron supplied
Power Supply model numbers 9113-PS, 9115-PS,
9116-PS-3, 9116-PS-4, 9116-PS-5 or 9116-PS-8.
When powering the miConverter Gx using the USB
Power Adapter cable (P/N 9130-2), the cable must be
connected to a Full-Powered USB Type-A port (5V,
500mA).
Note: Not all USB Type-A ports are Full-Powered
USB ports. The Full-Powered USB Type-A ports are
usually the USB ports found on computer cases
or on self-powered (powered by an AC adapter)
USB hubs.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE:
1. Configure the appropriate miConverter Gx DIP-
switch settings. If connecting to a ber optic device
that is set to auto-negotiation mode, set the ber optic
Auto-negotiation/Manual “AN/Man” DIP-switch to
“AN.” If connecting to a ber optic device that is set
to manual mode, set the ber optic “AN/Man” switch to

Fiber Optic Auto/Manual “AN/Man” DIP-switch:
Setting this DIP-switch to the Auto-negotiation “AN”
(factory default) setting enables the ber optic port of
the miConverter Gx to negotiate the Duplex and Pause
modes with the connected ber optic and UTP devices.
The miConverter Gx UTP port negotiates with the
connected UTP device based on the modes detected
by the ber optic port. Both the miConverter Gx and
the connected ber optic device must have their ber
optic auto-negotiation enabled for this process to work.
Setting this DIP-switch to the Manual “Man” setting
disables the fiber optic port’s ability to detect the
Duplex and Pause modes of the connected fiber
optic device. In this setting, the UTP port of the
miConverter Gx negotiates with the connected UTP
device based on the modes congured by the UTP
DIP-switches. This setting allows the miConverter
Gx to connect to Gigabit ber devices that are not
capable of auto-negotiation.
Note: In auto-negotiation mode, connecting the
ber optic cables before connecting the UTP cables
causes the ber optic LED to blink steadily (0.5Hz).
The blinking LED turns solid when the UTP link is on
and blinks quickly (10Hz) when activity is detected.
Note: The UTP “FDX/HDX”, “Pause/No”, and
“LS/LP” DIP-switches have no affect when the ber
optic port is set to auto-negotiation.
UTP Full/Half Duplex “FDX/HDX” DIP-switch:
Setting this DIP-switch to “FDX” (factory default) allows
the UTP port to negotiate to Full-Duplex. Setting
this DIP-Switch to “HDX” forces the UTP port to
negotiate only to Half-Duplex. These settings must be
congured to match the settings of the connected ber
optic and UTP devices.
UTP Pause Enable/Disable “Pause/No” DIP-switch:
Setting this DIP-switch to “Pause” (factory default) allows
the UTP port to negotiate to Symmetrical Pause.
Setting this DIP-switch to “No” disables Pause. These
settings must be congured to match the settings of the
connected ber optic and UTP devices.
Link Segment/Link Propagate “LS/LP” DIP-switch:
Setting this DIP-switch to “LS” (factory default) allows
the generation and detection of link presence to occur
at each point-to-point segment. In this conguration,
the loss of a receive link on either port has no affect on
the other port’s ability to transmit a link. For example, if
there is a loss of a receive link on the ber optic port, the
UTP port continues to maintain its link [Link Mode A & B].
Setting this DIP-switch to “LP” allows the link state
to propagate from one port to the other port. In this
conguration, the loss of a receive link on either port
causes the transmit link of the opposite port to be
turned off. For example, a loss of a receive link on the
ber optic port causes the UTP port to drop its link due
to the propagated ber optic link state [Link Mode C].
This setting allows the loss of a link to be detected by
SNMP or other managed network devices to which the
miConverter Gx is connected.
Note: Only the rst loss of a receive link detected by
the miConverter Gx turns off the other port’s transmit
link. An additional loss of a receive link on the
other port has no affect on the miConverter Gx. The
miConverter Gx returns to normal operation when the
rst loss of a receive link is restored.
