Chapter 1 Overview 1.1 Introduction The EKI-2741 is designed to convert Gigabit Ethernet networks to Gigabit fiber networks by transparently converting Ethernet signals to optic signals. The advantages of fiber optics are wide bandwidth, EMI immunity and long-distance transmission capability. Therefore, EKI-2741 is an ideal solution for “fiber to building” applications at central offices or local sites.
1.2 Features • Provides 1 x SFP (mini-GBIC) type connector (EKI-2741F) • Provides 1 x 1000Base-SX or 1000Base-LX SC type connector (EKI-2741SX/LX) • Provides 1 x 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet ports with RJ-45 connector • Supports full/half duplex flow control • Supports MDI/MDI-X auto-crossover •...
1.4 Packing List • 1 x EKI-2741F or EKI-2741SX or EKI-2741LX Industrial Ethernet Switch • 1 x eAutomation Industrial Communication CD-ROM with software, and User manual • 2 x Wall Mounting Bracket and Screws • 1 x DIN-rail Mounting Bracket and Screws •...

Chapter 2 Installation In this chapter, you will be given an overview of the EKI-2741F/SX/LX hardware installation procedures. 2.1 LED Indicators There are few LEDs display the power status and network status located on the front panel of EKI-2741F/SX/LX, each of them has its own specific meaning as the table below.
2.2 DIP-Switch The DIP-Switch is used to configure operation mode for LFP (Link Fault Pass- Through) and operation mode for UTP/Fiber port. The default value of DIP-switch is OFF. Table 2.2: EKI-2741series DIP-Switch Definition S/W No Status Description Enables Port/Power Alarm Disable Port/Power Alarm Enables LFP Disables LFP...

2.4 Mounting The EKI-2741F/SX/LX support two mounting methods: DIN-rail & Wall. 2.4.1 Wall mounting EKI-2741F/SX/LX can be wall-mounted by using the included mounting kit. Then, hang on the EKI-2741F/SX/LX to the nails on the wall. First, use the screws included in the package to combine the EKI-2741F/SX/LX and metal mounting kit.
2.4.2 DIN-rail Mounting You can also mount EKI-2741F/SX/LX on a standard DIN-rail by below steps. The DIN-rail kit is screwed on the industrial switch when out of factory. If the DIN-rail kit is not screwed on the industrial switch, please screw the DIN-rail kit on the switch first. First, hang the EKI-2741F/SX/LX to the DIN-rail with angle of inclination.

Then, let the device down straight to slide over the rail smoothly. See Figure 2.7 Figure 2.7: Installation to DIN-rail Step 2 EKI-2741F-SX-LX User Manual...
2.5 Network Connection • Twisted-pair segment can use unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cabling. The cable between the link partner (switch, hub, workstation, etc.) and the converter, must be less than 100 meters (328 ft.) long and comply with the IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base-T standard for Category 5e or above.

Second, insert the fiber cable of LC connector into the transceiver. Figure 2.10: LC connector to the transceiver To remove the LC connector from the transceiver, please follow the steps shown below: First, press the upper side of the LC connector from the transceiver and pull it out to release. Figure 2.11: Remove LC connector EKI-2741F-SX-LX User Manual...

Second, push down the metal loop and pull the transceiver out by the plastic part. Figure 2.12: Pull out from the SFP module Chapter2...
2.6 Power Connection The EKI-2741F/SX/LX support dual +12 ~ 48 V power inputs and power-fail relay output. Figure 2.13: Pin Assignment of the Power Connector You can connect an alarm indicator, buzzer or other signaling equipment through the relay output. The relay opens if power input 1 or 2 fails ( “Open” means if you connect relay output with an LED, the light would be off).
Page 30
Chapter 3 Troubleshooting Power Input Verify that is using the right power cord/adapter (+12~48 V ), please don’t use the power adaptor with DC output voltage higher than 48V, or it will burn this converter down. Cable Select the proper UTP/Fiber cable to construct your network. The single-mode converter must use single-mode fiber cable.
