  • Page 7: Introduction

    MC1000-SFP User’s Guide Introduction The 100/1000 Base-T UTP to 1000 Base-X Fiber SFP Media Converter allows seamless integration between a Fast/Gigabit Ethernet network using unshielded twisted pair (UTP) copper cabling and a Gigabit fiber network. Use the LEDs to quickly check status and the DIP switches to set transmission settings and “link loss forwarding”.
  • Page 8: Example Applications

    MC1000-SFP User’s Guide Can insert an SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) transceiver module with LC-type connector DIP switches to configure fiber link negotiating defaults and Link Loss Forwarding Link Loss Forwarding to notify the peer link if a link goes down...
  • Page 9: Hardware

    MC1000-SFP User’s Guide Hardware The media converter can be placed on a desktop. Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation from and adequate ventilation around the device. Do not place heavy objects on the media converter. Front Panel The front panel consists of an RJ-45 port for 100/1000 Mbps UTP connections, LED indicators, DIP switches and an SFP slot for an SFP transceiver module with an LC-type connector.
  • Page 10: Led Indicators

    MC1000-SFP User’s Guide An auto-negotiating port can detect and adjust to the optimum Ethernet speed (100/1000Mbps) and duplex mode (full duplex or half duplex) of the connected device. An auto-crossover (auto-MDI/MDI-X) port automatically works with a straight-through or crossover Ethernet cable.

    MC1000-SFP User’s Guide LNK/ACT Green The media converter fiber link is up. (Fiber) Blinking The media converter is transmitting or receiving on the fiber link. The media converter fiber link is down. FDX/COL Orange The fiber port is operating in full-duplex mode.
  • Page 12 MC1000-SFP User’s Guide The fiber link is auto-negotiating when the switch is off. Turn it Switch 1 on to force the fiber link to be up at only 1000Mbps in full duplex mode. Turn this switch on to have the Ethernet port send a Link Loss...
  • Page 13 MC1000-SFP User’s Guide Disconnect all fiber-optic cables from an SFP transceiver module before installing or removing it. Do NOT remove and install an SFP transceiver module more often than is absolutely necessary. Doing so may shorten the useful life of the SFP transceiver module.
  • Page 14 MC1000-SFP User’s Guide Do NOT force or twist the SFP transceiver module into a slot. Connecting a Fiber-optic Cable Follow the steps described to connect a fiber-optic cable to the SFP transceiver module. Remove the dust plugs from the SFP transceiver module and the cables.
  • Page 15: Rear Panel

    MC1000-SFP User’s Guide Using your thumb and index finger, grasp the tabs on both sides of the module and carefully slide it out of the slot. Do NOT force or twist the module out of a slot. Rear Panel The rear panel contains a power port. Connect the included power adapter (9V DC voltage with minimum 0.7A current) to the port labeled...
