About McBasic 10/100

McBasic 10/100™ is a low-cost,
standalone, IEEE 802.3 single-conversion
media converter which converts between:
• 10Base-T twisted pair and 10Base-
FL multi-mode or single-mode fiber
• 100Base-TX twisted pair and
100Base-SX multi-mode fiber or
100Base-FX single-mode fiber.
McBasic 10/100 is a 1U high, standalone unit that includes diagnostic
LEDs for each port and an internal, universal (100/240 VAC) power supply.

Installing McBasic 10/100

McBasic 10/100 comes ready to install. The only adjustments that may
need to be made after installation are:
• Configuring the unit for its mode of operation and other features.
• Setting the twisted pair port for a crossover workstation or
pass-through connection.
To install McBasic 10/100, first make sure the unit is placed on a suit-
able flat surface, leaving some space at the back of the unit. Attach the
cables between the McBasic 10/100 and each device that will be inter-
connected, then plug the unit into a reliable, filtered power source.
NOTE: All network cables must be connected for link LEDs to glow.

    It applies to both network interfaces and to both data rates. If the link at the other interface to the McBasic 10/100 is also down, there is no out- put. LFD causes the Link Up indicator of the link partner to blink.
