Chapter 1 OVERVIEW
Thank you for purchasing PLANET FT-70X family Fast Ethernet
Twisted pair to Fiber-optic Converter. This converter is used to
convert one type media signal to other type equivalent that
allows two type segments connect easily, efficiently 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 15 units) for
a TP and Fiber combined networks at a central wiring closet.
Please contact with your sales representative for more about the
19” media chassis.
Chapter 2 MODEL LIST
Your Fast Ethernet Converter comes with one of the following
models.
ð
FT-701B on board ST fiber connector
ð
FT-702B/S on board SC fiber connector
ð
FT-703/S on board MT-RJ fiber connector
ð
FT-704/S on board VF-45 fiber connector
ð
FT-705/S on board LC fiber connector
ð
FT-706A15 on board single SC fiber connector
ð
FT-706B15 on board single SC fiber connector
Models with last two numbered characters indicates the fiber-port is with “Single-Mode” optic fiber connector and the
number indicates the maximum distance in km. The rest will be
“Multi-Mode” optic fiber models.
In the following sections, the term “FT-70X” indicates the product
family above.

Chapter 4 PRODUCT OUTLOOK
Right View (FT-70X)
There are one RJ-45 Twisted-Pair jack, one fiber-optic connector
and six LED indicators on this side.
The fiber connector is different from model to model. Please
refer to the section 2 Model List and section 9 Technical
Specification for detail.
Left View (FT-70X)
One DC jack for DC power input.

Side View (FT-70X)
DTE MPR
One DIP Switch for TP Device selection.
Chapter 5 INSTALLING THE CONVERTER
Please follow these steps to install the converter:
• Turn off the power of the device/station in a network to
which the FT-70X will be attached.
Ensure that there is no activity in the network.
•
• Attach fiber cable from the FT-70X to the fiber network. TX,
RX must be paired at both ends for some two connectors
models.
Attach a Cat. 5 UTP cable from the 100Base-TX network to
•
the RJ-45 port on the FT-70X.
• Connect the 5VDC power adapter to the FT-70X and verify
that the Power LED lights up.
• Turn on the power of the device/station, the TX Link and FX
Link LEDs should light when all cables are attached.

Note:
n
RJ-45/STP, UTP Cat 5, straight-through cable is accepted.
n
Cabling from FT-70X TP port to a TP device is as below:
q
To Workstation: DIP switch on DTE
q
To Hub/Switch: DIP switch on MPR
n
Please refer to section 8 for more about the wiring distance of your TP, Optic-fiber networks.
n
Please note FT-706A15/706B15 is designed to work together. It means you must connect FT-706A15 to
FT-706B15 from them to work normally. If both ends are
FT-706A15 or FT-706B15, they can’t work normally and
may damage the fiber connectors.
Chapter 6 DUPLEX MODE SETTING
The twisted pair port of FT-70X support duplex mode selection
by Auto-Negotiation (A-N). The following is the duplex mode
parameters:
Fast Ethernet Device FT-70X Duplex Mode support
Fast Ethernet Hub Half-Duplex
Fast Ethernet Switch (without A-N) Half-Duplex
Fast Ethernet Devices *
Support Auto-Negotiation
Note: Normally, an A-N switch will be detected and set to
Full-duplex where a dual-speed hub will be detected and
set to Half-Duplex.

Fast Ethernet/100Base-TX network allows 512 bit-time
delay between any two nodes/stations in a collision
domain (when work in half duplex). The overall bit time of
TP/Fiber wires and devices must below 512 bit-time in
one network segment. To extend the distance, however,
you may use switch to break up a collision domain and
extend the distance.
