OVERVIEW:
The
iConverter
FF modules are fiber-to-fiber media
8633-1
converters providing single-mode (SM) to multimode (MM),
dual fiber to single-fiber, wavelength conversion and
8632-2
fiber extension. Fixed-fiber models are available for
Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet and
8633-2
SONET/SDH applications. Small Form Pluggable (SFP)
model is protocol transparent and also supports Fibre
Channel.
The
iConverter
FF media converters can be used in an
unmanaged or managed fashion. When unmanaged, they
can be installed in a chassis without a Network
Management Module (NMM). To be managed, an NMM or
a media converter with built-in management must be
installed in the same chassis.

FRONT PANEL DIP-SWITCH SETTINGS:
LINK MODES:
In order to accommodate different user needs, the
iConverter
FF media converters support two different
linking modes.
Link Segment/Link Propagation "LS/LP" Dip-Switch:
This DIP-Switch has no affect. The LS function of this
DIP-Switch has been disabled to enhance compatibility
with third-party fiber optic devices.
Fiber-to-Fiber media converters normally operate in LP
mode.
Remote Fault Detection Switch "RFD" Dip-Switch:
When in the Remote Fault Detection "RFD" position,
the Remote Fault Detection mode is enabled and LP
mode is disabled. When in the Normal "Norm" position
(factory setting), Remote Fault Detection is disabled
and LP mode is enabled.

Fig. 1 Link Modes
Pwr:
In Link Propagate (LP) mode (sometimes referred to as
Lk/Rx (P1):
Link Loss Carry Forward), a port transmits a Link signal
Lk/Rx (P2):
only when receiving a Link on the other front-plane port,
and a loss of a received Link at one port causes the
other front-plane port to stop transmitting its link signal.
For example, P1 transmits a Link only when receiving a
Link at P2 [Fig 1(a)].
In Remote Fault Detection (RFD) mode, a port transmits
a Link signal only when both itself and the other port are
receiving Link signals. A loss of a received Link signal
at a port is Looped-back and the port stops transmitting
a Link signal. The same loss of Link is propagated to
the other port which also stops transmitting the Link
signal. For example, the loss of Link into P2 causes
both P1 and P2 ports to stop transmission of the Link
signal [Fig 1(b)].
Note: Connecting two adjacent converters which
are both set to RFD is not permitted and will cause
a "deadly embrace" lockup.

into any chassis in the
1. Carefully slide the
aligning the module with the installation guides. NOTE:
Fig. 2
Front Panel Dip-Switches
Ensure that the module is firmly seated against backplane.
2. Secure the module by securing panel fastener screw
(attached to module) to chassis front.
3. When using an SFP model (8699-0), insert the SFP
iConverter
Fiber transceiver into the SFP receptacle on the module.
Note: The release latch of the SFP Fiber transceiver
must be in the closed position before insertion.
4. Attach an appropriate multimode or single-mode fiber
cable to each fiber connector. The transmit cable (Tx)
must attach to the receive side on the other device; the
receive cable (Rx) must attach to the transmit.
5. When using single-fiber (SF) models, the Tx
wavelength on one end must match the Rx wavelength
on the other and the converters must be used in
