#Notice:
GT-905A Installation
GT-905A is with high reliability and flexibility to extend the distance from 220m to 120Km. It depends on the Gigabit mini
GBIC modules. The SFP transceivers are hot-plug and hot-swappable. You can plug-in and out the transceiver to/from
any SFP port without having to power down the converter.
To install GT-905A with 1000Base-SX / LX SFP, simply complete the following steps:
Step 1: Precede with the steps 4 and steps 5 of session 2.2.1 Stand-alone Installation to connect the network cabling
and supply power to your converter.
Step 2: Slot in the 1000Base-SX / LX SFP. Make sure both side of the SFP transceiver are with the same media type, for
example: 1000Base-SX / 220m & 550m to 1000Base-SX / 220m & 550m, 1000Base-LX / 10km to 1000Base-LX /
10km
Please refers to APPENDIX-A for detailed wiring information of the Managed Media Converter.
To prevent from optic acceptor malfunction, check the both wires / transmitter before power on the
converter.
Step 3: Connect the fiber cable. Attach the duplex LC connector on the network cable into the SFP transceiver.
#Notice:
It recommends using PLANET MGB series 1000Base-SX / LX / LX WDM SFP on the GT-905A. If
you insert a SFP transceiver that is not supported, the GT-905A will not recognize it.

2.2.2 Chassis Installation and Rack Mounting
To install the Managed Media Converter in a 10-inch or 19-inch with standard rack, follow the instructions described
below.
Step 1: Place your Managed Media Converter on a hard flat surface, with the front panel positioned towards your front
side.
Step 2: Carefully slide in the module until it is fully and firmly fitted into the slot of the chassis.
Figure 2-5: Insert a Managed Media Converter into an available slot
Step 3: Attach a rack-mount bracket to each side of the Chassis with supplied screws attached to the package.
Step 4: After the brackets are attached to the chassis, use suitable screws to securely attach the brackets to the rack, as
shown in Figure 2-6.
Step 5: Precede with the steps 4 and steps 5 of session 2.2.1 Stand-alone Inst al l atio n to connect the network cabling
and supply power to your Chassis.

or Mozilla Firefox.
The following shows how to startup the Web Management of the Managed Media Converter, please note the Managed
Media Converter is configured through an Ethernet connection, make sure the manager PC must be set on the same IP subnet address, for example, the default IP address of the Managed Media Converter is 192.168.0.100 (the
factory-default IP address), then the manager PC should be set at 192.168.0.x (where x is a number between 1 and 254,
except 100), and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
Use Internet Explorer 5.0 or above Web browser, enter default IP address http://192.168.0.100
After entering the username and password (default user name and password is “admin”) in login screen then the Web
main screen appears.
3.2.2 SNMP Management
You can manage the Managed Media Converter across a LAN using an SNMP Network Management Station with a
graphical user interface.
This management method lets you monitor statistical counters and set Managed Media Converter parameters from the
remote Network Management Station.
Using this management method:
- The network must run the IP protocol.
- The Managed Media Converter must have an IP address.
