Installation 2.1 Unpacking The product package contains:  The device unit  One AC power adapter  QR code label linking to product documentation cloud 2.2 Safety Cautions To reduce the risk of bodily injury, electrical shock, fire and damage to the product, observe the following precautions.
  • Page 10: Mounting The Media Converter

    2.3 Mounting the Media Converter The media converter can be mounted on a desktop or shelf or a wall. Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation from and adequate ventilation around the device. Do not place heavy objects on the device.
  • Page 11 Din-Rail mounting For a Din-Rail chassis, the device can support mounting on a Din-Rail. An optional Din-Rail bracket, KC-3DR can be purchased separately. The following figure shows an example after bracket installation: Center rack mounting The media converter can also be installed in KC-1300 center chassis. The center chassis provides the power supply to the media converter also with optional power redundancy.
  • Page 12: Applying Power

    2.4 Applying Power Before you begin the installation, check the AC voltage of your area. The AC power adapter which is used to supply the DC power for the unit should have the AC voltage matching the commercial power voltage in your area. Steps to apply the power to the device are: 1.

    2.6 Making Fiber Connection The mini-GBIC SFP port must be installed with an SFP fiber transceiver for making fiber connection. Your device may come with an SFP transceiver pre-installed when it was shipped. Installing SFP Fiber Transceiver To install an SFP fiber transceiver into the SFP port, the steps are: 1.

    2.6.1 SFP Configuration DIP Switch (SW4) Mode 1000Mbps, Full duplex, Auto-negotiation enabled (Factory default) Auto detection Full duplex Line rate, 1000Mbps or 100Mbps is determined by detecting the data rate information embedded in the installed SFP transceiver Note: The setting change of SW4 takes effect after next device power-up. 2.7 LED Indication State Interpretation...
  • Page 16: Media Converter Functions

    3 Media Converter Functions 3.1 Line Rate Conversion The device supports the following data conversions between fiber cable and twisted-pair Cat.5 (copper) cable: The data line rate on twisted-pair copper segment depends on the link speed finally established with the link partner. However, the line rate can be fixed at one specific line rate by setting UTP configuration DIP switches (SW1 ~ SW3).
  • Page 17: Link Fault Pass Through Function

    3.3 Link Fault Pass Through Function When the Link Fault Pass Through (LFPT) function is enabled. When the media converter detects a link fault on one port segment, it will force the other port segment link down. It looks like that a link fault is passed from one port to the other.

    3.3.1 LFPT Configuration DIP Switch (SW5) The LFPT function can be enabled by setting SW5 as below: LFPT Disabled (Factory default) Enabled Note: The setting change of SW5 takes effect after next device power-up. Under certain condition, LFPT function is not supported. See the following table: SFP Port Mode LFPT Function 1000Mbps, Full duplex,...
