Specifications

Network Connection
A. Select the appropriate length Category 5e or 6 twisted pair cable.
Connect one end of the twisted pair cable to the RJ-45 connector
on the converter and the other end of twisted pair cable to the RJ-
45 connector on any 10/100 Base-TX device.
B. Connect one end of a fiber jumper to the SC connector on this
converter and the other end of the fiber jumper to the SC
connector on the other 100 Base-FX device.
C. Attach the power adapter DC jack to the converter. Verify that the
Power LED is on.
D. Verify that the UTP “LK/ACT” LEDs light when cable connection is
installed correctly. Verify that Fiber “LK/ACT” LED blinks to indicate
network activity.
Installing Converters into Chassis
Follow the steps below to install modular converters into the 10 space
Converter Chassis (pn: FEP-593110).
A. Remove the blank bracket from the chassis by rotating
thumbscrew counterclockwise. Put the blank bracket aside.
B. Open the rack mount bracket kit. The kit contains two rack mount
brackets and four screws.
DIP Switch
The DIP-switches are used to configure operation mode for LLF ( Link
Loss Forwarding ) and operation modes for the UTP/Fiber ports.
DIP-switch setup is as follows:
Note: To activate DIP switch 4, DIP 3 must be enabled.
Link Loss Forwarding: The Link Loss Forwarding feature sends fiber
or UTP link failure information to the switches. Any failure along the
signal link is passed to and can be seen by an attached device. This
feature is used for easy network diagnosis and supports switches
utilizing Spanning Tree Protocol.
Note: Do not change the DIP-switch setting while the UTP or fiber
ports are transmitting or receiving data as data error may occur.
Rear Panel
The rear panel contains a power socket. This power socket accepts
DC 5V voltage and minimum 2.5A supplied current.
