port operates at 10 or 100 Mbps speed. The fiber optic port is IEEE
802.3ah-compliant and has either a dual ST or a dual SC connector with a
maximum operating distance from 2 kilometers (1.24 miles) to 40
kilometers (24.8 miles), depending on the model. The twisted pair port has
an RJ-45 connector and a maximum operating distance of 100 meters
(328 feet). Both ports feature half- or full-duplex mode operation. The line
card is hot-swappable into and out of the chassis.

10/100Base-TX Twisted Pair Ports
The 10/100Base-TX twisted pair ports featured on the Converteon™ line
cards are described below.
Converteon Media Converter Line Cards Reference Guide
Type of
Connector
The 10/100Base-TX twisted pair ports feature 8-pin RJ-45 connectors.
Only four of the pins are used when a port is operating at 10 or 100 Mbps.
For the port pinouts, refer to “RJ-45 Twisted Pair Port Pinouts” on page 89.
Speed The twisted pair ports are 10/100Base-TX compliant and are capable of
both 10 megabits per second (Mbps) and 100 Mbps speeds. Since the
ports are IEEE 802.3u Auto-Negotiation compliant, you can let the
converter set the port’s speed automatically. With Auto-Negotiation, the
converter automatically matches the highest possible common speed
between the converter port and the end-node. For example, if an endnode is capable of only 10 Mbps, the converter sets the port connected to
the end-node to 10 Mbps. Alternatively, you can set the port speed
through the management software.
Note
Auto-Negotiation is activated as the default on the twisted pair port
on the converter. To deactivate Auto-Negotiation and set the speeds
manually, refer to the AT-S70 Management Software User’s
Guide.
Duplex Mode The10/100Base-TX twisted pair ports on a Converteon™ line cards can
operate in either half- or full-duplex mode. The twisted pair ports are IEEE
802.3u-compliant and will Auto-Negotiate the duplex mode setting.
If desired, Auto-Negotiation on the converter ports can be disabled so that
you can set the duplex mode manually through the converter’s AT-S70
management software.
Maximum
Distance
The maximum operating distance of the 10/100Base-TX twisted pair ports
is 100 meters (328 feet).
Type of Cable For 10 Mbps, the port requires Category 3 or better (100 ohm shielded or
unshielded) twisted pair cabling. For 100 or 1000 Mbps, the port requires
Category 5 or Enhanced Category 5 (5E) (100 ohm shielded or
unshielded) twisted pair cabling.
29
Chapter 1: Converteon™ Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet Line Cards
Auto MDI/
MDI-X
The 10/100Base-TX twisted pair ports are auto-MDI/MDI-X. They
automatically configure themselves as either MDI or MDI-X, depending on
the configuration of the port on the end node. This feature allows you to
use either straight-through or crossover twisted pair cables to connect
devices to the ports.
Note
The auto-MDI/MDI-X feature on a port is available only when the
port is set to Auto-Negotiation. If you disable Auto-Negotiation and
set a port’s speed and duplex mode manually, the port defaults to
MDI-X. For instructions on configuring a port, refer to the AT-S70
Management Software User’s Guide.
Port Pinouts For port pinouts when the port is operating at 10 or 100 Mbps in the MDI
configuration, refer to Table 20 on page 89.
For port pinouts when the port is operating at 10 or 100 Mbps in the MDI-X
configuration, refer to Table 21 on page 89.
