Overview
Thank you for purchasing PLANET FT-80X family 10/100Mbps
Ethernet Twisted pair to 100Base-FX Fiber-optic Bridge Converter.
This converter is used to convert one type media signal to other
type equivalent that allows two type segments connect easily,
efciently and inexpensively. This converter can be used as a
standalone unit or as a slide-in module to the 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.
Model List
Your Fast Ethernet Converter comes with one of the following
models.
ð FT-801: on board ST fiber connector
ð FT-802/S: on board SC fiber connector
Models with last character “S” indicate the ber-port is with
“Single-Mode” optic ber connector.
In the following sections, the term “FT-80X” indicates the product
family above.
Checklist
Your FT-80X carton should contain the following items:
ð The Fast Ethernet Bridge Converter
ð AC-DC Power Adapter (Output: 5VDC, 2 A max.)
ð This user’s manual
If any item is missing or damaged, please consult the dealer from
whom you purchased your Fast Ethernet Converter.

Product Outlook
Right View
There are one RJ-45 Twisted-Pair jack (Auto-MDI/MDI-X), one
ber-optic connector and six LED indicators.
Left View
One DIP switch for Fiber-optic mode operating selection, FDX for
full-duplex, and HDX for half-duplex.

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-80X will be attached
· Ensure that there is no activity in the network
· Attach fiber cable from the FT-80X to the fiber network.
TX, RX must be paired at both ends
· Attach a Cat. 5 UTP cable from the 10/100Base-TX net-
work to the RJ-45 port on the FT-80X.
· Connect the 5VDC power adapter to the FT-80X 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:
• RJ-45/STP, UTP Cat 5, straight/crossover cable is accepted
• Please refer to section 8 for more about the wiring
distance of your TP, Optic-fiber networks.

Duplex Mode setting
The TP port of FT-80X supports duplex mode detection by autonegotiation (A-N). The following is the duplex mode parameters:
Fast Ethernet Device
Ethernet / Fast Ethernet Hub Half-Duplex
Ethernet / Fast Ethernet Switch
(without A-N)
Fast Ethernet Devices *
Support Auto-Negotiation
Note: Normally, an A-N switch will detect and set to full-
duplex, where a dual-speed hub will detects half.
There is a DIP-switch as in the left view as section 4. Please
check and follow the duplex mode of the ber device and have
the duplex selection to your FT-80X.
