Page 13: Chapter 1 Introduction
H A P T E R 1.1 Overview The MC1000-SFP-FP is a Gigabit Ethernet-to-Fiber media converter. It can convert transmissions between 10/100/1000 Base-X UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) copper media and 1000 Base-X SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable, also known as mini-GBIC) fiber media. In the next example (G is the Gigabit Ethernet link and F is the fiber link), the MC1000-SFP- FP functions as a high-speed bridge between switches connecting workgroups in branch offices for instance. -
Page 14: Fiber Cable Protection
Chapter 1 Introduction For example, if LFS is disabled and one side of a link fails (down arrow), the other segments will keep on transmitting packets (up arrows) and wait for responses that will never arrive. Figure 3 No Link-Fault Signaling With LFS enabled, a link down detected on the Ethernet port will force a link down on the fiber port and vice-versa. -
Page 15: Fiber-Optic Connection
H A P T E R Fiber-optic Connection 2.1 Overview To make the MC1000-SFP-FP fiber-optic connection you need to: 1 Open the MC1000-SFP-FP 2 Disable DIP switch 1 (LFS) 3 Install an SFP transceiver 4 Attach the wire mounts 5 Insert a fiber-optic cable through a bushing and wrap it around the wire mounts 6 Connect the fiber-optic cable to the SFP transceiver 7 Enable DIP switch 1 (LFS) Only qualified technicians should perform these actions! Please skip this... -
Page 16: Dip Switch 1
Chapter 2 Fiber-optic Connection Open The Cover Figure 6 2.3 DIP Switch 1 The MC1000-SFP-FP supports Link-Fault Signaling (LFS). LFS monitors both copper and fiber segments and informs other segments if one segment goes down (the LFS LED also lights). See Section 1.1.1 on page 13 Use DIP switch 1 to enable or disable Link-Fault Signaling (LFS). -
Page 17: Procedure To Install An Sfp Transceiver
• Only trained and qualified personnel should install or replace transceivers. • SFP transceivers are static sensitive. To prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD), it is recommended you attach an ESD preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface when you install or remove a SFP transceiver. -
Page 18: Install Fiber-Optic Cable
Chapter 2 Fiber-optic Connection SFP transceiver installation orientation varies depending on your device. Your SFP transceiver comes with a mechanism that prevents incorrect insertion. Do NOT force or twist the SFP transceiver into a slot. 6 Lock the transceiver into place (if your transceiver has a locking mechanism). Figure 9 Lock Transceiver See the transceiver User’s Guide for more information. -
Page 19: Insert Fiber-Optic Cable
Figure 10 Attach Wire Mounts. 2.5.2 Insert Fiber-optic Cable The MC1000-SFP-FP has holes (labelled A in the following figure) through which you may insert fiber-optic cable. 1 Insert a bushing into a hole through which you will insert the fiber-optic cable. The bushing sheathes the cable, holds it in place and covers the hole. -
Page 20: Close The Mc1000-Sfp-Fp
Chapter 2 Fiber-optic Connection Figure 12 Insert Cable 2.6 Close the MC1000-SFP-FP After you have disabled DIP switch 1 (LFS), installed the SFP transceiver, attached the wire mounts, threaded fiber-optic cable though a bushing, wrapped excessive fiber-optic cable around the wire mounts, inserted the fiber-optic cable into the SFP transceiver and enabled DIP switch 1 (LFS) again, you should close the housing cover and secure it with the same screws you removed as shown in 1 Close the cover as shown. -
Page 21: Replacing An Sfp Transceiver
2.7 Replacing An SFP Transceiver To replace an SFP transceiver, first remove the original one and then insert a new one as documented previously. 2.7.1 Procedure To Remove An SFP Transceiver 1 Attach an ESD preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface on the chassis. - Page 22 Chapter 2 Fiber-optic Connection MC1000-SFP-FP User’s Guide...
