CGETF10xx IN THE NETWORK

Install two CGETF10xx series media converters in series to extend, over
fiber, the distance between two 1000BASE-TX devices. Or use one
CGETF10xx media converter to connect a 1000BASE-TX terminal
device and a 1000BASE-SX/LX hub, switch, or router. Or use one
CGETF10xx media converter to connect a 1000BASE-TX hub, switch, or
router and a 1000BASE-SX/LX terminal device.

NOTE: A TRANSITION Networks stand-alone media converter can be installed
in series with a TRANSITION Networks chassis media converter that has a
related model number, such as an SGETF10xx with a CGETF10xx.

INSTALLATION

CAUTION: Wear a grounding device and observe electrostatic discharge
precautions when setting switch and when installing Slide-in-Module in the
Media Conversion Center. Failure to observe this caution could result in
damage to, and subsequent failure of, the Media Converter Slide-in-Module.

Set 3-Position Jumper

NOTE: Jumper is located on Media Converter Slide-in-Module circuit board.
Use small needle-nosed pliers or similar device to set

jumper. Refer to drawing for jumper positions.
HARDWARE Converter mode is determined by 4-position

switch settings below.
SOFTWARE Converter mode is determined by most-

recently-saved on-board microprocessor settings.

Set 4-Position Switch

NOTE: Switch is located on Media Converter Slide-in-Module circuit board.
Use small flatblade screwdriver or

similar device to set recessed
switches. Refer to drawing for
four-position switch locations.

Full/Half-Duplex Advertisement
(UP=Enabled) Allows full-duplex

mode. (DOWN) Allows half­duplex mode.

Pause Advertisement (UP=Enabled) Allows auto-negotiation pause. (DOWN)
Allows NO auto-negotiation pause.

NOTE: If the Pause feature is present on all network devices attached to the
media converter(s), enable Pause on the media converter(s). Otherwise,
disable Pause on the media converter(s).

LPT (UP=Enabled) Allows a fault EITHER on the copper OR on the fiber side
of the media coverter to stop signal and data transmission on the other side.
(DOWN) Disables LPT.

CATEGORY 5:

Gauge 24 to 22 AWG
Attenuation 22.0 dB /100m @ 100 MHz

answers to the following questions and then taking the indicated action:

1. Is the P(o)W(e)RLED on the media converter illuminated?
NO

• Is the media converter inserted properly into the chassis?

• Is the power cord properly installed in the chassis and at the

external power source?

• Does the external power source provide power?

• Contact Technical Support: [phone].

YES

• Proceed to step 2.

2. Is the LKCLED on the media converter illuminated?
NO

• Check twisted-pair cables for proper connection.

• Check twisted-pair cables for connection of all four pairs.

YES

• Proceed to step 3.

3. Is the LKFLED on the media converter 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 other device.

• Contact Technical Support: [phone].

YES

• Proceed to step 4.

4. Is the RXCLED on the media converter flashing?
NO

• If there is NO ACTIVITY on the 1000BASE-TX port, proceed to step 5.
