Revision PLANET Fast Ethernet Converter User’s Manual FOR MODEL: FT-807 Rev: 1.1(December, 2005) Part No. 2010-AA3330-001...
Chapter 1 Introduction The PLANET FT-807 is a 10/100Base-TX shielded twisted pair (STP) to Fast Ethernet 100Base-FX fiber converter. It supports full-duplex operations at its fiber-optic interface in the form factor of SMI (Small Multimedia Interface) interface. The converter auto-adapts to the highest level of performance supported by the device connected to the STP port.
TP: Lights to indicate the TP connection is established. PWR: Lights to indicate the converter is powered. 1.5 Duplex Mode Setting The TP port of FT-807 supports duplex mode detection by auto-negotiation (A-N). The following is the duplex mode parameters: Fast Ethernet Device...
Normally, an A-N switch will detect and set to full-duplex, where a dual-speed hub will detects half. The fiber port (POF) port of FT-807 is fixed at 100Mbps full-duplex mode. The link partner should also set at 100Mbps full-duplex mode at the same time.
Chapter 2 Installation Please follow these steps to install the converter: Turn off the power of the device/station in a network to which the FT-807 will be 。 attached. 。 Ensure that there is no activity in the network. 。...
When connecting 10/100Mbps TP port to other devices, a straight or crossover cable is necessary. The TP port of FT-807 supports auto-MDI detection. That means you can directly connect the TP port to any Ethernet devices without making a crossover cable.
A.2 100Mbps, 100Base-FX, SMI type connector FT-807 is using POF SMI type connector that is mostly being used for IEEE1394b transmission. The followings show the basic information. The POF Cable should be a dual wire cable with 0.98mm optic core with cladding diameter 1mm.
