INTRODUCTION General Description The 6750-FK is the replacement for the discontinued FlexSwitch Model 600XC 1Fx + 4U. The 6750-FK replacement kit consists of one iConverter 10/100BASE-TX to 100BASE-FX Media Converter Module and one iConverter 4Tx Switch Module installed in a iConverter 2-Module Chassis.
INSTALLATION Chassis Installation The 6750-FK is designed to accommodate wall-mounting and tabletop installations. For wall-mounting, the 8249-0 Wall-Mount kit (sold separately) is designed to attach the chassis to a wall, backboard or other flat surfaces. For tabletop installations, place the unit on a flat level surface. Attach the rubber feet to the bottom of the chassis to prevent the unit from sliding.
CONFIGURATION DC Powered Chassis Site Preparation • Power source should be available within 5 ft. of the chassis. The over current protection for connection with centralized DC shall be provided in the building installation, and shall be a UL listed circuit breaker rated 20Amps, and installed per the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA-70.

• Prepare a power cable using a three conductor insulated wire (not supplied) with a 14 AWG gauge minimum. Cut the power cable to the length required. • Strip approximately 3/8 of an inch of insulation from the power cable wires.
Configuring the DIP-switches The 6750-FK has been pre-configured with auto-negotiation enabled on all UTP ports for plug and play easy of use. However, the iConverter Modules offer additional configuration flexibility. 3.3.1 4Tx Switch Module The 4Tx Switch Module has been pre-configured for auto-negotiation. Board-mounted DIP-switches are available to manually configure Port 1 and 2.
UTP 10/100Mbps “10/100” DIP-switch (Port 1 or Port 2) When the UTP “AN/MAN” DIP-switch (described above) is in the manual “MAN” position, the “10/100” DIP-switch determines the speed of operation for the designated UTP port. Setting the “10/100” DIP-switch to “100” position (factory default) forces the UTP port to operate at 100Mbps.
10/100 speed and duplex mode of a mating auto-negotiating device connected to its UTP port. When the UTP “AN/Man” DIP-switch is in the “Man” position, the converter does not auto-negotiate and operates in the mode selected by the Full/Half- Duplex “FDX/HDX” and “10/100” DIP-switches. UTP 10/100 “10 / 100”...

LINK MODE DESCRIPTION In order to accommodate different user requirements, the 6750-FK Media Converter Module supports three different link modes. Link Segment (LS) LS mode transmits a link signal independently of any received Link at any port. Utilizing this configuration, a loss of a receive link signal will only affect the port detecting the loss of signal.
