Hardened Media Converter
V5 1
This quick start guide describes how to install and use the hardened media converter. This is the media converter of choice for harsh
environments constrained by space.
Physical Description
The Terminal Block and Power inputs
y DC Terminal Block Power Inputs: There are two pairs of power inputs can be used to power up this device. You need to have two power
inputs connected to run the media converter, but the FAULT LED indicator will light up to remind that the power redundant system
functions abnormal in case either PWR1 or PWR2 is dead. Media Converter, however, continues working normally even fault LED
indicator lights up.
• DC JACK Power input: 12VDC.
The 10/100Base-TX and 100Base-FX Connectors
The 10/100Base-TX Connections
The following lists the pinouts of 10/100Base-T/TX ports.
Pin Regular Ports Uplink port

The 100Base-FX Connections
The fiber port pinouts
The Tx (transmit) port of device I is connected to the Rx (receive) port of device II,
and the Rx (receive) port of device I to the Tx (transmit) port of device II.

Assembly, Startup, and Dismantling
• Assembly: Place the media converter on the DIN rail from above using the slot. Push the front of the media converter toward the mounting
surface until it audibly snaps into place.
• Startup: Connect the supply voltage to start up the media converter via the terminal block (or DC JACK).
• Dismantling: Pull out the lower edge and then remove the media converter from the DIN rail.
