Installation

CAUTION: Wear a grounding device and observe electrostatic discharge precautions when setting the 4-position switch and the jumper. Failure to observe this caution could result in damage to, and subsequent failure of, the media converter.

Set the 4-Position Switch

• The 4-position switch is located on the media converter circuit board.

• Use a small flat-blade screwdriver to set the switches (see the drawing).

NOTE: When the fiber port or the copper port is disabled (switches 1 and 2), network traffic coming into the media converter is ignored and no traffic flows out. In this mode, the media converter is disconnected from the network.

1. Fiber Port (10Base-FL)

Up Enables network traffic on the fiber port. Down Disables network traffic on the fiber port.

2. Copper Port (10Base-T)

Up Enables network traffic on the copper port. Down Disables network traffic on the copper port.

3. AutoCross

Up Enables AutoCross (see page 6). Down Disables AutoCross.

(When AutoCross is disabled, the 10Base-T (copper) port is in MDI-X (crossover) mode.)

4. Link Pass-Through

Up Enables Link Pass-Through (see page 6). Down Disables Link Pass-Through.

(When Link Pass-Through is disabled, remote faults are not passed along to any downstream equipment.)

Install the Slide-in-Module

CAUTION: Wear a grounding device and observe electrostatic discharge

precautions when installing the CETTF10xx-200 slide-in-module media converter. Failure to observe this caution could result in damage to, and

subsequent failure of, the media converter.

To install the CETTF10xx-200 slide-in-module media converter.

1. Carefully slide the slide-in-module into the installation slot, aligning the module with the installation guides.

2. Ensure that the module is firmly seated inside the chassis.

3. Push in and rotate the attached panel fastener screw clockwise to secure the module to the chassis front.

Connect the Twisted-Pair Copper Cable

1. Locate or build IEEE 803.2™ compliant 10Base-T cables, with straightthrough RJ-45 cable, and with straight-through RJ-45 connectors installed at both ends.

2. Connect the RJ-45 connector at one end of the cable to the RJ-45 port on the CETTF10xx-200 media converter.

3. Connect the RJ-45 connector at the other end of the cable to the RJ-45 port on the other device (switch, workstation, etc.).

Set the Jumper

The jumper is located on the media converter circuit board. Use small needle-nosed pliers or a similar device to set the jumper.

Hardware The media converter mode is determined

by the 4-position switch settings.

Software The media converter mode is determined

by the most-recently saved, on-board microprocessor settings.

Installation -- Continued

Connect the Fiber Cable

1. Locate or build IEEE 803.2™ compliant 10Base-FL fiber cable with male, two-stranded TX to RX connectors installed at both ends.

2. Connect the fiber cables to the CETTF10xx-200 media converter as described:

• Connect the male TX cable connector to the female TX port.

• Connect the male RX cable connector to the female RX port.

3. Connect the fiber cables to the other device (another media converter, hub, etc.) as described:

• Connect the male TX cable connector to the female RX port.

• Connect the male RX cable connector to the female TX port.

Connect the fiber cable to the media converter as shown.

Power the Media Converter

The slide-in-module media converter is powered through the Transition Networks PointSystem™ chassis.

Connect the fiber cable

to the other device

(media converter,

hub, etc.) as shown

SNMP

Use SNMP at an attached terminal or at a remote location to monitor the media converter by monitoring:

• Media converter power.

• Copper link and fiber link status.

• Copper receive and fiber receive status.

• Hardware switch settings.

• Fault Condition.

Also, use SNMP to enter network commands that:

• Enable/disable the copper port .

• Enable/disable the fiber port.

• Enable/disable AutoCross.

• Enable/disable Link Pass-Through.

• Power down the Media Converter.
