Setup The DMC-1910 Single Fiber
Media Converter

As with any electric device, you should place the equipment where it will
not be subjected to extreme temperatures, humidity, or electromagnetic
interference. Specifically, the site you select should meet the following
requirements:
A. The ambient temperature should be between 32 and 104 degrees

Fahrenheit (0 to 40 degrees Celsius).

B. The relative humidity should be less than 90 percent, non-condensing.
C. Surrounding electrical devices should not exceed the electromagnetic

field (RFC) standards for IEC 801-3, Level 2 (3V/M) field strength.

D. Make sure that the equipment receives adequate ventilation. Do not

block the ventilation holes on each side of the media converter or the
fan exhaust port on the side or rear of the equipment.

E. The power outlet should be within 1.8 meters of the switch.

Connecting the power

1. This Converter is a plug-and-play device.

2. Connect the supplied AC to DC power adaptor with a power voltage
of 7.5Vdc/1.5Amp to the receptacle on the rear panel of the converter,
and then attach the plug into a standard AC outlet with a voltage
range from 100 to 260 Vac.

Switch 1: Fiber mode switch
When the switch was turned to “On”, it means that the fiber was turned to

forced mode, and “Off” for auto-negotiation mode.

Note: Be sure the opposite end is using the same setting (forced or Auto­negotiation). And when using two converters at the same time, the two
converters MUST set to forced mode.

Switch 2: LLR
When the switch was turned to “On”, it means that the LLR was enabled and

“Off” for disabled.

Note: When using two converters, don’t enable the both devices’ LLR
function at the same time.

The Converter can be fit into any of the expansion slots on a special designed

chassis.

Step 1- Unscrew the carrier from the desired expansion slot on the chassis.
Step 2- Remove the screw on the converter as shown below.
Step 3- Fit the converter onto the carrier and use the screw to secure it.
