TP-Fiber (Multi-mode)
IEEE802.3 Ethernet Converter
1.Overview
IEEE802.3 10Mbps Ethernet Converter supports 10Base-T and 10Base-FL
media for network connection. The media converter is used to convert
10Base-T electrical signal to 10Base-FL optical signal that allows two type
segments connect easily and inexpensively. This converter can be used as a
standalone unit or as a slide-in module to the 10/19" Media Chassis (up to
7/10/15 units) for use at a central wiring closet.

5.Installing the Converter
For as a standalone unit:
Verify the AC to DC adapter conforms to your country AC power
requirement and insert the power plug
Connect the media cable for network connection
For as a slide-in unit:
The slide-in Media Converter and Converter Rack should be supplied
only from PLANET, both Media Converter and Rack are built to match
each other at dimensions, DC jack, DC receptacle and power safety
Locate +5VDC power jack on converter back, carefully slide in and
plug to 10/19" rack +5VDC power receptacle
Ensure that there is no activity in the network
Connect the media cable for network connection

6.Port connection
ET-508 support Half/Full-duplex mode operation, auto-negotiation in TP port that
can double the bandwidth, please make sure the FL- end - device also support
full-duplex and set to it as well.
Port Connection method
Fiber Port: Attach the fiber cable. The Tx, Rx fiber cable must be
TP Port:
Note:
if you are going to connect the TP port to a 10/100Mbps Ethernet device It is
strongly recommend to set the connecting mode to fixed 10Mbps full-duplex
or 10Mbps half-duplex.
paired at both ends
Attach UTP Cat. 3 or 5 cable to TP port
MPR: To a Hub or Switch
DTE: To a workstation or NIC
7.Duplex Mode Support
The ET-508 is a transparent / single-channel media converter between 10Base-T
and 10Base-FL. The 10Base-T port can only work under 10Mbps with
auto-negotiation or fixed 10Mbps full/half duplex mode. To connectect its TP port
with 10/100Mbps auto-negotiation device may failed in connection. After the TP
port is link up then the 10Base-FL fiber port will link up accordingly.
Note:
The correct work mode of ET-508 must connect TP port and fiber port
properly under 10Mbps with auto-negotiation or fixed 10Mbps full/half duplex
mode.
