Fiber Fault Alert (Switch 2)
Switch Position Mode
Up (default) Enabled
Down Disabled
Enabled: If the media converter module detects a loss of fiber
signal on its fiber receiver, it will disable its fiber transmitter on the
same SFP. This, in effect, notifies the fiber link partner that an
error condition exists on the fiber connection.
Disabled: The Protocol Transparent Media Converter module will
not monitor for Fiber Fault.
Note: If 2 media converters are connected to each other, FFA
should not be enabled on both since this could create a “dead-
lock” state.
Rate Select (Switch 3)
Switch Position Mode
Up (default) High Speed
Down Low Speed
High Speed – When a multi-rated SFP is inserted, it is enabled for
its higher speed of operation.
Low Speed – When a multi-rated SFP is inserted, it is enabled for
its slower speed of operation.
