Installing the Media Converter
Connecting the Media Converter
1. Turn o the Networking Equipment that will be connected to the Media
Converter.
2. Remove the Dust Cover from the SFP+ Slot.
3. Insert an MSA-compliant 10GbE SFP+ module (sold separately) into the SFP+ Slot
on the Media Converter.
Note: The Media Converter can only be used with 10GbE SFP+ Module.
4. Remove the Dust Cover from the SFP+ Module.
5. Connect a Fiber-Optic Cable (sold separately) to the Fiber-Optic Ports on the SFP+
Module.
6. Connect the other end of the Fiber-Optic Cable to the Fiber-Network Device.
Note: For Duplex Fiber Optic Cables, the TX and RX connectors must be paired at
both ends of the connection. For example TX to RX, and RX to TX.
7. Connect a Cat 6/6a Cable (sold separately) to the RJ45 Port on the Media
Converter.
8. Connect the other end of the Cat 6/6a Cable to the Ethernet Network Device.
Powering the Media Converter
1. Connect the Universal Power Adapter to the 5V DC Port on the Media Converter.
2. Connect the other end of the Universal Power Adapter to an AC Electrical Outlet.
The PWR LED (power) should light up solid green.
3. Turn the Networking Equipment from step #1 back on.
Note: Check the link budget of your SFP+ modules, as well as the module’s intended
wiring distance. SFP+ modules are designed to transmit signals over large distances. If
the physical wiring distance is too short, the transmitting optical signal (laser) may be
too strong and damage the receiving SFP+ module. An in-line optical attenuator may
be required to protect it from damage.
