  • Page 4: About The Mcbasic-Gigabit

    McBasic-Gigabit has user-configurable features located on the PCB board. Please refer to the board diagram and the table for available features. To access the McBasic-Gigabit board for configuration, loosen the two screws on the front of the unit. Slide the board out of the enclosure (faceplate is attached).

  • Page 5: Linkloss, Fiberalert And Link Fault Pass-Through

    The appropriate “LNK” (link) LED is lit to indicate this. The IMC Networks media converter also sends out link pulses from its copper and fiber transmitters, but normally has no way of knowing whether the cable to the other device is intact and the link pulses are reaching the other end.

  • Page 6: Using Fiberalert And Linkloss

    TX LinkLoss (TXLL) TX LinkLoss is a troubleshooting feature. When a fault occurs on the twisted pair segment of a conversion, TX LinkLoss detects the fault and passes this information to the fiber segment. If a media converter is not receiving a twisted pair link, TX LinkLoss disables the transmitter on the media converter's fiber port.

  • Page 7: Link Fault Pass-Through (Lfpt)

    Link Fault Pass-Through (LFPT) is a troubleshooting feature that combines TX and FX LinkLoss from both the local and remote McBasic-Gigabit modules. LFPT is enabled by turning on both FX and TX LinkLoss on both modules. This feature allows either end of the conversion to detect a link fault occurring at the other end of the media conversion chain.
