Installation

1. Connect the fiber network cable to the LC connector on
the fiber media converter. Using UTP Ethernet cable,
connect the cable to the RJ45 jack.
2. Set the Auto/Force switch on the media converter, to
turn auto negotiate on or off. If set to Force, set the
Duplex switch (full/half) according to the specifications
of your networking equipment.
3. The following example illustrates the connection
scheme when connecting from a 1000Base-TX port of
a hub/switch to a 1000Base-SX/LX port of another hub/
switch, through the fiber media converter:

DIP Switch Configuration

Full/ Half:
The Fiber and UTP Duplex will be configured in Full
duplex or Half duplex.
* This switch includes an "Auto Reset" function so the
power-reset is not necessary when any modification is
made here.
LBT:
Loop-back test and get remote side status :
(OFF = Not Active, ON = Active).
* If the local side loop-back test is active, then LEDs
(except PWR) will all blink rapidly and refresh to display
the remote side status.
LLF:
Link Loss Forwarding (OFF = Not active, On = Active)
Auto/Force:
Auto negotiate duplex mode, or force Full/Half via DIP
