Caution!

This product may contain a laser diode emitter operating
at a wavelength of 1300nm - 1600nm. Use of optical
instruments (for example: collimating optics) with this
product may increase eye hazard. Use of controls or adjust­ments or performing procedures other than those specified
herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Under normal conditions, the radiation levels emitted by
this product are under the Class 1 limits in 21 CFR Chapter

1, Subchapter J.

ATTENTION!

Cet équipement peut avoir une diode laser émettant à des
longueurs d'onde allant de 1300nm à 1600nm. L'utilisation
d'instruments optiques (par exemple : un collimateur
optique) avec cet équipement peut s'avèrer dangereuse pour
les yeux. Procéder à des contrôles, des ajustements ou toute
procédure autre que celles décrites ci-après peut provoquer
une exposition dangereuse à des radiations.

Sous des conditions normales, le niveau des radiations émi­ses par cet équipement est en dessous des limites prescrites

dans CFR21, chapitre 1, sous chapitre J.

Canoga Perkins 8829 Media Converter

1. Introduction

The Canoga Perkins Model 8829 UTP-to-Fiber Optic
Media Converter connects or replaces 10BASE-T
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) segments with fiber op­tic cable. The 8829 Media Converter operates in Full­Duplex mode which allows it to be used in conjunction
with Full-Duplex Switches and Routers. In this appli­cation, segments up to 40km can be supported. The
8829 Media Converter also interconnects servers or
work stations located up to 3km from each other in a
standard Half-Duplex (CSMA/CD) network.

The 8829 Media Converter is especially suited for harsh
manufacturing environments where immunity to noise
and electrical / magnetic interference or security con­siderations are of particular importance, in addition to
long distance extension via Full-Duplex links.
conforms to 'Network Equipment Building Systems'
(NEBS) Level Three standards.

The 8829 Media Converter comes in four versions:

• 10BASE-FL

• 1310nm Single Mode Laser

• 1310nm Single Mode Extended Laser

• 1310nm Single Mode ELED

sizes of UTP cable (Category 3 minimum recommended)
and single and multi-mode fiber optic cables; including 8­10/125 Single Mode, 50/125, 62.5/125 Multi Mode.

The 8829 Media Converter has the following features:

• Replaces UTP segments

• Fiber Break Propagation to UTP port

• Half-Duplex (CSMA/CD) or Full-Duplex

• Provides noise / interference immunity

• Provides virtually untappable security

• Automatic UTP reversed polarity correction

• Selectable normal or crossed-over UTP
connection

• Seven LED indicators

2.2 Unpacking

Canoga Perkins Transceivers, Converters and AUI
Extenders are carefully inspected and tested prior
to shipment from the factory. In the event that there
is obvious damage to the shipping container, con­tact the Canoga Perkins Customer Service Depart­ment.

It is recommended that you keep the shipping pack­age until the unit has been installed and verified
as being fully operational. In the unlikely event
that the unit is defective, contact the Canoga Per­kins Customer Service department for a Return
Material Authorization number (RMA) for direc­tions on how to return the unit (refer to Appendix
A).

Canoga Perkins products, like all electronic de­vices with static sensitive components, should be
handled with care. All user switches are located
on the exterior of the package. Since there are no
user-serviceable parts inside the unit, opening the
case will void the factory warranty.

2.3 Setup of the 8829

The 8829 UTP-to-Fiber Media Converter requires
its own power source. The 8829 Media Converter
is supplied with a wall-mount transformer that re­quires 90-130VAC at 50-60Hz and provides 24VDC
to the unit. The AC adapter connects to the main
converter via a power connector. An optional 220V
transformer is available.

The 8829 Media Converter features an 8-pin
modular connector on the LAN side of the net­work (see Figure 2-2).

Caution: To protect the Ethernet port from an

intrabuilding lightening surge, use a

properly grounded shielded cable.

The 8829 Media Converter connects to fiber optic
cable via ST* connectors on the rear panel (see
Figure 2-3).

Figure 2-3. Fiber Optic Connections

When working with fiber optic cables and con­nectors, care should be taken to prevent contami­nating connector plugs and sleeves. Dirt and dust
can significantly affect connector insertion loss and
consequently degrade performance.

NOTE: Connectors should be covered with
protective plastic caps when not in use.
