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.

INSTALLATION
Set Switches
Use small flatblade screwdriver or similar device to set recessed switches
according to site installation.
• Set the MDI/MDI-X switch to MDI for cable connection between hub
and media converter. Set the MDI/MDI-X switch to MDI-X for cable
connection between media converter and terminal, transceiver or
network interface card (NIC).
• Referring to drawing on page 2, set four-position switch according to
network configuration.
Install Slide-In-Module in E-MCC-1600 Chassis
• Remove Media Converter Slide-in-Module protective plate from selected
installation slot by removing two (2) screw that secures plate to front of
E-MCC-1600.
• Carefully slide Media Converter Slide-in-Module into installation slot,
aligning Media Converter Slide-in-Module with installation guides.
NOTE: Ensure that the Media Converter Slide-in-Module is firmly seated
against backplane.
• Secure Slide-in-Module by installing panel fastener screw attached to
Slide-in-Module.
Install Cable
COPPER
NOTE: KEEP TWISTED PAIR RUNS AS SHORT AS POSSIBLE.
• Locate or build 802.3 compliant cables with straight through
configuration and male RJ-45 plug connectors.
• Connect male RJ-45 plug connector at one end of cable to media
converter RJ-45 jack connector.
• Connect male RJ-45 plug connector at other end of cable to DTE
terminal RJ-45 jack connector (setting MDI switch to MDI-X) or to Hub
RJ-45 jack connector (setting MDI switch to MDI).
FIBER
• Locate or build 802.3 compliant fiber cable with male two-stranded TX
to RX connectors appropriate to the media converter installed at both
ends.
• Connect male TX and RX cable connectors at one end of cable to TX
and RX female connectors, respectively, on media converter.
• Connect male TX and RX cable connectors at other end of cable to RX
and TX connectors of 802.3 compliant fiber device.
OPERATION
After installation, the media converter should function without operator
intervention.
Status LEDs
Use the status LEDs to monitor media converter operation in the network.
Power Illuminated green LED indicates
connection to external AC power.
SDF Signal Detect/Fiber: Steady green LED
indicates fiber port is connected to
device.
SDC Signal Detect/Copper:
Steady green LED
indicates RJ-45 port is
connected to device.
RXC Receive/Copper: Flashing green LED indicates packets are seen
on RJ-45 port.
RXF Receive/Fiber: Flashing green LED indicates packets are seen
on fiber port.
Link Pass Through/Remote Fault Detect
When the Link Pass Through function is active, a fault on one side of the
media coverter stops signal and data transmission on the other side.
When the Remote Fault Detect function is active, a fault on one side of the
media coverter allows signal, but not data, transmission on the other side.
FAULT ISOLATION and CORRECTION
If the media converter fails, isolate and correct the failure by determining the
answers to the following questions and then taking the indicated action:
1. Is the Power LED on the media converter illuminated?
NO
• Is the power adapter the proper type of voltage and cycle frequency
for AC outlet?
NOTE: Refer to the “Power Supply Requirements” on page 7.
• Is the power adapter properly installed in the media converter and
in the outlet?
• Contact Technical Support at (800) 260-1312/ (800) LAN-WANS.
YES
• Proceed to step 2.
2. Is the SDC (Signal Detect/Copper) LED illuminated?
NO
• Check UTP cables for proper connection.
• Verify MDI/MDI-X switch position.
• Contact Technical Support at (800) 260-1312/ (800) LAN-WANS.
YES
• Proceed to step 3.
3. Is the SDF (Signal Detect/Fiber) LED illuminated?
NO
• Check fiber cables for proper connection.
• Verify that TX and RX cables on media converter are connected to
RX and TX ports, respectively, on the other 100BASE-FX device.
• Refer to Tech Tips available at: http://www.transition.com
• Contact Technical Support at (800) 260-1312/ (800) LAN-WANS.
YES
• Contact Technical Support at (800) 260-1312/ (800) LAN-WANS.
