FCC Regulations

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class A digital device, pursuant
to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be
required to correct the interference at the user’s own expense.

Canadian Regulations

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise for digital apparatus set out on
the radio interference regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.

Le présent appareil numérique n'émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites applicables
aux appareils numériques de la class A prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique
édicté par le ministère des Communications du Canada.

European Regulations

Warning

Switches at the side of the media converter are used
to configure the media converter for the network.

MDI/MDI-X SWITCH

Allows straight-through twisted-pair cable to be used
for crossover 100BASE-TX connections.

4-POSITION SWITCH
1(UP) Enables Auto-negotiation function to detect and adapt to line

speed/operation mode of attached device. (DOWN) Disables Auto­negotiation function.
2(UP) Allows an attached full-duplex station to transmit and receive
simultaneously. (DOWN) Allows an attached half-duplex station to transmit
and receive sequentially.
3(UP) Enables BOTH Link Pass Through AND Remote Fault Detect
functions. (See page 4) (DOWN) Disables BOTH Link Pass Through AND
Remote Fault Detect functions
4 Relevant only if Switch 3 is UP. (UP) Enables Remote Fault Detect function
at Switch 3. (DOWN) Disables Remote Fault Detect function at Switch 3.

Install no more than two (2)
media converters in series.

Copper Cable

Category 5 shielded twisted-pair (STP) or unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) copper
wire is required. DO NOT USE FLAT OR SILVER SATIN WIRE.

CATEGORY 5:

Gauge 24 to 22 AWG
Attenuation 22.0 dB /100m @ 100 MHz
Maximum Cable Distance: 100 meters

The two active pairs in a 100BASE-TX
network are pins 1 & 2 and pins 3 & 6.
Use only dedicated wire pairs (such as
blue/white & white/blue, orange/white
& white/orange) for the active pins.
