Installation
CAUTION: Wear a grounding device and observe electrostatic discharge
precautions when setting the 4-position switch and jumper. Failure to observe this
caution could result in damage or failure of the media converter.
4-position switch
• The 4-position switch is
located on the side of the
media converter. Use a small
flat-blade screwdriver or a
similar device to set the
recessed switches.

AutoCross Jumpers
The AutoCross feature allows either straight-through (MDI) or crossover
(MDI-X) cables to be used when connecting to devices such as hubs,
transceivers, or network interface cards (NICs). AutoCross determines the
characteristics of the cable connection and automatically configures the unit
to link up, regardless of the cable configuration.
High-temperature board, J3, 3-Pin header settings:
1. Orient the board as shown in the photo.
2. Position the jumper as illustrated below.

Installing the fiber cable
1. Locate a 100Base-FX compliant fiber cable with male, two-stranded TX to
RX connectors installed at both ends.
2. Connect the fiber cables to the 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.
Installing the copper cable
1. Locate or build 100Base-TX compliant copper cables with male, 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 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.).
