This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for class A devices,
pursuant to part 15 of FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a commercial installation. This equipment
generates, uses, and radiates radio frequency energy; therefore, if it is not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions in this document, could cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area
is likely to cause harmful interference; the user will be required to correct the interference
at the user’s own expense.
CE Mark
CE Marking (European Conformity): This is a Class A product. In a domestic
environment, this product could cause radio interference; as a result, the user may be
required to take adequate preventative measures.

About this
manual
Manual structure
The SISTG10xx-111-LR(T) Industrial Media Converter provides a 10/100/1000Base-T (RJ-45)
copper connection and a 1000Base-X fiber connection with either a fixed optical transceiver or
an SFP port. These Media Converters are hardened devices designed to reliably operate in
harsh environments such as those found on factory floors, outdoor enclosures or other
hazardous environments.
In this manual, the term “Media Converter” (first letter upper case) refers to the
SISTG10xx-111-LR(T) 10/100/1000Base-T to 1000Base-X Industrial Media Converter.
This manual provides instructions on how to install, configure, and operate the
SISTG10xx-111-LR(T) 10/100/1000Base-T to 1000Base-X Industrial Media Converter.
This manual has a beginning table of contents; also, at the beginning of each section there is

Make sure that you read and understand all content identified by these two symbols:
Cautions and warnings appear here and throughout this manual where appropriate. Failure to
read and understand the information identified by the “caution” and “warning” symbols could
result in poor equipment performance, damage to equipment, or injury to persons.
Cautions indicate the possibility of damage to equipment.
CAUTION
Make sure that the Media Converter is mounted with proper space around it for ventilation
(heat dissipation). Failure to observe this caution could result in damage to the Media
Converter.
CAUTION
Please exercise caution when using power tools. Do not install this unit in damp or wet
locations, or in close proximity to very hot surfaces. Failure to observe this caution could
result in damage to the Media Converter and cables.
CAUTION
Only qualified persons should install the Media Converter. Failure to observe this caution
could result in poor performance or damage to the Media Converter.
CAUTION
Install the Media Converter in an environment where the temperature range will not
exceed the stated environmental specifications for the particular model being installed.
Failure to observe this caution could result in permanent damage to the Media Converter.
CAUTION
DO NOT install the Media Converter in areas where strong electromagnetic fields (EMF)
exist. Failure to observe this caution could result in poor Media Converter performance
and data corruption.
CAUTION
The Media Converter must be mounted to a well-grounded surface. Failure to observe
this caution could result in EMI problems.
CAUTION
When connecting DC power wires to the terminal-block plug, pay close attention to the
polarity markings shown near the terminal block of the Media Converter. Failure to
observe this caution could result in damage to the equipment.
CAUTION
This is a Class A product. In a residential environment, this product could cause radio
interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate corrective
measures.

General description
Overview
Features
The SISTG10xx-111 Industrial Media Converter can help eliminate EMI or RFI issues and help
to overcome distance limitations with copper-based cabling by providing a fiber interface to
transport data from copper-based industrial networking and communication devices over fiber
optic cabling.
Each Media Converter can connect to either 10Base-T or 100Base-TX or 1000Base-T copper
ports and provides a 1000Base-X fiber optic connection. Multiple connector options are
offered as well as two distinct operating temperature ranges:
- Standard: -10°C to +50°C (14°F to +122°F)
- Extended: -40°C to +65°C (-40°F to +149°F)
The SISTG10xx-111 Industrial Media Converter has the following features:
• Auto-Negotiation
• AutoCrossTM
• Link Pass Through
• Dual, redundant auto-sensing 12 to 48VDC inputs with reverse polarity protection
and over current protection
• Dry Contact Relay alarm output for failure of primary or redundant power input
• IEEE 802.3x flow control support
Flow control on full-duplex
Back pressure on half-duplex
• DIN-Rail mounting bracket (installed)
• Wall mount brackets included
• DIP-switches to set Power Alarm and Link Pass Through
• Barrel connector interface cable included for use with external AC/DC power supply
