1. Introduction
1-1. Overview
The LevelOne Media Converter-Web Smart Series is designed to make conversion between 10/100Base-TX and 100Base-FX or 10/100/1000Base-TX and 100/1000Base-FX Ethernet. With web-based management and Telnet text-based manual driven management, the network administrator can logon the remotely converter to monitor, configure and control the status of each unit. The overall network reliability is enhanced, and the network efficiency is also improved to accommodate and deliver high bandwidth applications.
The 19-inch Media Converter Rack, CVH-3000, is designed to accommodate 12 units of various type of web smart media converter at a central location for multiple segments cross connection. DC −48V power supply is used and provided by Telecom site. The Rack provides solutions for users to best manage media converters. Since converter is connected directly to the chassis main-board, no power cable or wire is required for connection. Moreover, a redundant power supply is offered in the power supply set to cope with any accidental breakdown of power supply.

2. Installation
2-1. Cable and Hardware Installation
(Web Smart Media Converters)
Wear a grounding device for electrostatic discharge
Verify that the AC-DC adapter conforms to your country AC power requirement and then insert the power plug
• TP Cable
Use Cat. 5 TP cable to connect server/host or workstation to TP port of the converter
TP port supports MDI/MDI-X auto-crossover, use:
straight-through cable (Cable pin-outs for RJ-45 jack 1, 2, 3, 6 to 1, 2, 3, 6) to cascade or up-link the converter to an upper layer L2/L3 switch or server/host/workstation
TP Cable Limitations: Cat. 5 and up to 100m
• Fiber Cable
Use fiber cable to connect FX port of an upper layer converter
Fiber Cable Limitations:

Note: The other side of the fiber cable plugged into the converter’s RX connector at the near end should plug into the FX device’s TX connector at the far end, and vice versa.
2-2. Cable and Hardware Installation
(Web Smart Media Converter Chassis)
2.5mm
DC Receptacle 2.5mm 1A@+5V for each slot
DC receptacle is 2.5mm wide that matches and conforms to the Media Converter 2.5mm DC jack's central post. Do not install any improper unit or model of the Media Converter.
The slide-in Media Converters and Converter Rack should be supplied only from the same source; both Media Converters and Rack are built to match each other at dimensions, DC power jack, DC receptacle and power safety.
Turn off the 19" converter rack power.
Verify the Media Converter is right for this Rack and locate +5VDC power jack on converter back, and carefully slide in and plug to match 19" rack slot +5VDC receptacle.
