Troubleshooting

This section contains guidelines for troubleshooting the media converter in the event a problem
occurs.
If the MAIN LED is OFF, check the following:
• Check to be sure that the power cord for the main power supply is securely
connected to the power supply and the power outlet.
• Check that the power outlet has power by connecting another device to it.
• Check that the AC input power source is between 100 and 240VAC.
If an optional S.CON/PS redundant power supply is installed but the BCKP LED is OFF, check
the following:
• Check to be sure that the power cord for the S.CON/PS unit is securely connected
to the media converter and the power outlet.
• Check that the power outlet has power by connecting another device to it.
• Check that the AC input power source is between 100 and 240VAC.
If the F-LNK LED for a fiber optic port is OFF, check the following:
Check to be sure that an active F/O device (converter or other) is properly
connected and powered at the remote end..
Check to be sure that the fiber optic cable is properly connected to the fiber optic
port.
Verify that the maximum allowable loss budget on the fiber optic cable is within
acceptable limitis (see table 4).
If the T-LNK LED for a twisted pair port is OFF, check the following:
• Check to be sure the node connected to the port is powered ON.
• Check to be sure that the twisted pair cable is securely connected to both the port
on the media converter and the node.
• If the node connected to the port is a workstation, check to be sure that you used
a crossover cable. (a crossover cable is not necessary when connecting a hub or
switch to a twisted pair port on the media converter.)
