Installation

Set the LinkAlert™ Switch

The LinkAlert switch is located on the side of the media converter. Use a small flat-blade screwdriver or a similar device to set the recessed switch:

Left = Enables the LinkAlert function

Right = Disables the LinkAlert function.

The LinkAlert feature allows the media converter to monitor both the fiber and copper RX (receive) ports for loss of signal. In the event of a loss of an RX signal, the media converter will automatically disable the TX (transmit) signal, thus, “passing through” the link loss. The far-end device is automatically notified of the link loss, which prevents the loss of valuable data unknowingly transmitted over an invalid link.

Note: The enable/disable switch allows the LinkAlert feature to be disabled. LinkAlert may interfere with the Auto-Negotiation feature of other devices in networks where there are two media converters installed in series.

AutoCross™ Feature

The AutoCross feature detects and configures the twisted-pair copper port on the E-TBT-FRL-05 media converter to the correct straight-through (MDI) or crossover (MDI-X) configuration. This feature allows either MDI or MDI-X cable to connect the media converter to devices such as hubs, transceivers, or network interface cards (NICs). (Requires no operator intervention).
