funCtions & indiCators
Auto MDI
Auto MDI (medium dependent interface) detection alleviates concerns
about cabling conguration by allowing direct connection to a workstation,
switch, LAN card, hub or other network devices when connecting between
RJ-45 ports.
Auto MDI marked next to
the RJ- 45 port on the front
panel of Model 515386.

DIP Switches
The DIP (dual in-line package) switches on the rear panel of some models
enable a variety of functions
that are printed in a convenient
reference key alongside the
switches. NOTE: A DIP switch
reference list is also listed in the
product’s Specications. In the
example at right (model 515344),
DIP switches 6 and 7 enable
the Local Loopback (LLB) and
Remote Loopback (RLB) diagnostic functions (see Loopback Testing).
Loopback Testing
On some models (see Specications), DIP switches let you activate both
local and remote loopback diagnostic test functions. Check for proper
cable connections rst, and run the test with a trafc level of at least 50
percent of capacity to optimize the brightness of the LED indicators.
Don’t conduct both loopback tests at the same time.
Local Loopback
Use a local loopback (set the designated DIP switch to On to enable) to
check that the copper segment is connected properly. Launch a loopback
or diagnostics testing program (see NOTE below) and follow the program
instructions. Typically, the instructions will be similar to the following:
1. Enter the number of test messages (frame packets) to be sent (1–1000).
5
2. Click “Start.”
3. The program will send a testing message looped in the copper segment
and display a pass/fail result.
Remote Loopback
Use a remote loopback (at the remote unit, set the designated DIP switch
to On; at the local unit, keep both loopback Dip switches Off/disabled) to
check that the ber segment is connected properly. Launch a loopback or
diagnostics testing program (see NOTE below) and follow the program
instructions. Typically, the instructions will be similar to the following:
1. Enter the number of test messages (frame packets) to be sent (1–1000).
2. Click “Start.”
3. The program will send a testing message looped in the ber segment
and display a pass/fail result.
NOTE: On a PC, use a program such as Sniffer to conduct the tests.
Other methods include the SmartBits series of testing equipment. If you
do not have access to either method, contact your vendor for advice.
IMPORTANT: Deactivate both the local and the remote loopback test
functions for normal converter operation.
Link Fault Signaling (LFS)
Link Fault Signaling (LFS) is an important function that is extremely
benecial in terms of network status monitoring. The LFS function monitors
both the copper and ber segments to ensure that the Spanning Tree
Protocol can kick in the moment a link failure occurs on either segment.
Set LFS to On for normal operations; set to Off when installing cables
or when testing the network connection.
NOTE: The LFS feature inuences both ber and copper segments.
When disruption occurs on the copper segment, the ber segment will be
disabled. When the ber segment loses signal, the copper segment will
be disabled. Any link failure — including during periods of precautionary
switching to the redundant link and during Link Fault Signaling — will
cause the ALM LED to light up (see LEDs).
To utilize the full benets of LFS, four converters can be used to build a
primary and a secondary path between two switches. The switches must
6
support Spanning Tree or Fast Spanning Tree protocols. By default,
transmission of data will travel via the primary path. If a link failure is
detected, transmission will automatically be switched to the secondary
path by Spanning Tree Protocol, delivering non-stop network connectivity.
LEDs
Front panel LEDs provide at-a-glance network status and real-time
connectivity information. NOTE: The PWR (power) LED is located on
the rear panel on some models.

(Redundant) Gigabit SFP Slot
To connect a ber cable’s connector to a converter’s SFP slot, slide the
selected SFP module (mini-GBIC) into the SFP slot, making sure that
the module’s receptors line up with the receptors at the back of the slot.
Push until you hear a click. Once the module is inserted correctly, take
the cable connector and turn it so that it will t into the mouth of the
module. Then push the connector into the mouth until its snaps into the
receiving grooves in the module’s mouth. Use the appropriate type of
multi-mode or single-mode ber, depending on the SFP module being
used. The ber optics transmit data at up to 1,000 Mbps and can maintain
data integrity over cable distances as long as 60 km, depending on the
selected SFP (mini-GBIC) module.

Cables
Connecting Fiber Cable
When connecting ber cable to a 1000Base-FX port on the converter,
be sure an SC or WDM connector is used. (Other INTELLINET NETWORK
SOLUTIONS Media Converter models may need cable that matches
their ST por ts.) Follow the steps below to properly connect ber cable.
1. Remove and keep the ber port’s rubber cover. When not connected to
a ber cable, the rubber cover should be replaced to protect the optics
inside the device.
2. Check that the ber terminators are clean. You can clean the cable
plugs by wiping them gently with a clean tissue or cotton ball moistened
with a little ethanol. Dirty ber terminators on ber optic cables will
impair the quality of the light transmitted through the cable and lead
to degraded performance on the port.
3. Connect one end of the cable to the SC/WDM port on the converter
and the other end to the SC/WDM port on the other device. NOTE:
When inserting the cable, be sure the tab on the plug clicks into position
to ensure it’s properly seated.
4. Check the corresponding port LED on the converter to make sure the
connection is valid.
Connecting Copper Cable
The 1000Base-T RJ- 45 Ethernet port fully supports auto -sensing and auto-
negotiation. Follow the steps below to properly connect ber cable.
1. Insert one end of a Category 5 twisted pair cable into the RJ-45 port
on the converter and the other end into the port of the network node.
2. Check the corresponding port LED on the converter to make sure the
connection is valid.
Cable Installation Tips
Cables can affect network performance if not installed or positioned
properly. To help ensure your equipment operates at optimal levels:
• Try to maintain a bend radius that’s a minimum of 4x the diameter of
10
the cable for UTP; and 100x the diameter of the

a bend radius of (min.) 4x the diameter
of the cable for UTP and 100x for fiber.
Try not to allow the cable to twist too
much - this creates a strain on the internal cables.
cable for ber.
• Avoid letting the cable twist too much to
prevent excessive strain on internal cables.
24 mm
• Place cable ties at regular intervals, being
careful not to overtighten them. Avoid
using ties with ber cable.
6 mm
• Don’t stretch cable, especially around
corners, in vertical cable trays and when spanning long distances.
Cable Selection
Use 100 Ohm Category 5, 5e or 6 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shielded
twisted-pair (STP) cable for 1000Base-T congurations, referring to the
pin assignments below as needed.
Pin MDI Signal Name MDI-X Signal Name

performance. Consider these guidelines when deciding where to place
the device.
• Place the converter in a fairly cool and dry location. (See Specications
for the acceptable temperature and humidity operating ranges.)
• Place the converter in a location free from strong electromagnetic
eld generators (such as motors), vibration, dust and direct exposure
to sunlight.
• Place the converter in a location with easy access to AC power.
• Place the converter on a clean, at surface that leaves at least 10 cm
(4 in.) of space at the front and rear of the device for ventilation.
• Afx the provided rubber pads to the bottom of the converter to protect
the case from scratches and prevent slipping.
NOTE: For mounting on a vertical surface, use the underside of the unit
as a template to measure and mark out the position of the holes on the
installation surface, then use two screws to mount the converter in place.
WARN ING: Exercise caution if using power tools to install the device.
Also, because invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the aperture
of the port when no cable is connected, avoid exposure to laser radiation
and do not stare into open apertures.
Powering On the Converter
The converter uses an AC power supply: 100 – 240 V AC, 50 – 60 Hz. The
power supply automatically self-adjusts to the local power source and may
be powered on without having any or all LAN segment cables connected.
1. Plug the power cable directly into the receptacle on the rear panel.
2. Plug the power adapter into an available socket. NOTE: For international
use, you may need to change to an AC power adapter cord that has been
approved for the receptacle type and electrical current in your country.
3. Conrm that the PWR LED on the rear panel is lit, indicating power to the
device. If it’s not, check that the power cable is correctly plugged in.
